Show transcript
[y] commonly sounds like [ü], e.g., 'typisch'. In English words like 'Yoga' and 'Baby', [y] is pronounced as in English.
Words ending in -ic/-ical in English often end in -isch in German, e.g., 'typisch'.
There are three different ways to say 'you' in German: 'du', 'Sie' and 'man'.
The perfect tense is made up of a part of ‘haben’ or ‘sein’ in the present tense, and a past participle.
Half past the hour is expressed as half to the next hour in German, e.g., 9:30 is ‘halb zehn’.
