Show transcript
Long and short [u] and [ü] need practice and clarity as the umlaut is often added to form plural nouns.
Certain expressions which use 'haben' (to have) translate differently in English, e.g., 'Ich habe Hunger' - I am hungry.
Use 'du' (you, sing.) for a friend, family member or person you know well, and 'Sie' for adults you address by surname.
Verbs with 'Sie' (you, formal) are the same as the infinitive (dictionary) form.
'Sie' (you, formal) is written with a capital letter.
