10 GERMAN PHRASES Every Traveler Should Know! (Basic German)

[@DeanaandPhil]

Can you come up with more usable phrases in Germany? Comment below!

[@silkwesir1444]

I think that almost nobody would actually ask "Wieviel kostet das?", even though that's what your German teacher would teach you. In my experience, people usually ask _"Was_ kostet das?" ... I guess you didn't want to set a bad example? :D

[@dusollstleben195]

Not so important also people say how expansive is that ... no one is Bad with someone because he Made just a little fault . Its not so in germany , the people is not fast angry . When someone is just friendly everything is ok . German peopel ever try to help .people in other coutries is also good ...the normal simple people is good worldwide , we See war's in the past and since many thousand years . They are all Made from governments and right now they try again to make war everywhere ... we should get to know so many people from other countries we can .... than we will see . All the normal simple people want just live in Peace and have enough food and maybe a little House. Is german people Bad because of the past ? Is us people Bad because the government make war everywhere ? .... no every war was Made from governments Not from the normal people .... maybe what is not so good when people from one country live in another , because the governments use this to bring hate between diffrent people .

My mother was from Munich, and came to the US after marrying my dad after WW2. She didn’t teach us German, so the 2 times my 3 siblings and I went to Germany, the language barrier was tough. Most of our cousins live near Ingolstadt and Munich. This was a GREAT TUTORIAL for first time visitors. Some of the cousins are much younger than me. (65,) and they had English in school, and we could communicate very well when they were present. Thank you for freshening me up; it has been 10 years since we have been over, and we hope to go again very soon.❤️

[@DavidHernandez-oc1oz]

My mom wanted to teach us German but my dad (a native Spanish speaker) didn't want us to learn anything but English as he always had some trouble with English and was concerned that we would too if we learned other languages. He just didn't understand that we would have been fine if we learned them together. The German relatives always got on my mom about why didn't she teach us German. I did take German in high school and college.

Then it made more sense as the dialect was much more familiar sounding to me, even with my limited German. The other thing that made it harder was that language also evolves, so even for my parents certain words were different as it had been 20 years since they moved from Austria.

you're a very likeable couple and you explained most phrases very well, especially based on politness which i agree isn't best put to use by many germans (i'm german myself). the only thing that stood out to me, but was already mentioned i guess, is that the polite version of "was?" is "wie bitte?" or we also use "entschuldigung?" or "pardon?" (french spoken). i wouldn't teach foreign people "hä" since it's perceived as rude often. anyways, i like you and thumbs up!! 👍👍

[@faithlesshound5621]

In Britain, what is polite sometimes depends on class (i.e. what sociolect is being used). Where a worker says "pardon?" a bourgeois would say "what?" It also changes over time, and so varies between generations. I would say, "May I have an americano?" or, "I would like ..." but for a younger person it's normal to say, "Can I get ..."

[@mamemu3130]

I appreciate learning the way locals speak vs the formal way, and having a non-fluent speaker in the video made it more realistic. It helped distinguish between the fluent and not so fluent way, and it shows that one doesn't need to be perfect to be understood. AND thank you for necessary phrases. These apps waste time with words I won't need any time soon*. Well done! *P.S. one of the first words duolingo taught me was "bear" and used "you are a bear", while Memrise taught me "apart from that"... 😑

[@Dragon-925]

Vergiss nicht das Wort Manno, wenn i etwas nicht geklappt hat.

[@SofiaLöf]

i learned German in school 30 years ago but next week will be my first time there. We're going to use the 9 euro rail tickets from Berlin to Leipzig and then Hamburg. Your vid has made me remember those words that I haven't used in so long. Danke schon!

In Munich we say instead of Tschüss mostly the word "Ciao" (Tschau) - because italy is not far away. ;)

[@DeanaandPhil]

You also greet god a lot! 😛

[@Miximixos]

​@@DeanaandPhil Yes, that´s true. ;) The phrase "Grüß Gott" is very common in bavaria ;)

[@MultiBelz]

no servus is most common.

This is a great video! Thanks for making it so concise and focused! I'd like to kindly ask to keep to native pronunciations when doing these demos as it is confusing to people new to the language to to hear things pronounced differently.

[@beehanuta633]

You can say as "your welcome" also "gern geschehen!"

Thank you. I was born in Australia. I have worked with many people from different cultures and countries. Most apologise for their "none Australian accent when speaking. I always remind them that their accent is a part of who they are. In Germany is it OK to speak German if I'm not getting the accent correctly. I remember being told in a German language course that I needed to growl more.

Mittlerweile hat es sich ein wenig eingebürgert, auf "danke" mit "sehr gerne" zu antworten 😁.

[@junkotakayanagi6857]

I'm currently traveling in Germany. Your video is helping me a lot. Danke Schon!

[@ricowalter5311]

As a washreal german würde ich you're welcome eher mit gern geschehen übersetzen tbh :)

[@sergiosouza7547]

We are going to be spending a week in Austria next May and I want to try to at least not be a total tourist so I've been trying to learn some German. This was a wonderful little reminder of some common phrases. Thank you.

[@richiesd1]

Seems like all Germans speak English so well.

[@DeanaandPhil]

Right?! There were so many people in Germany that spoke English! I didn't have many chances to practice my horrible German! 😅

[@Lakin3]

In most schools it is your first foreign language. It varies when you start it. Sometimes Kindergarten (yes, I know in English it is written with "d", but it is a German word, so I keep to the original), or 1st year in school, sometimes 5th year. Most young people don't have big trouble communicating with you in English. Many see it as good practise. But I have to say, in the Netherlands it seems they know much better.

[@BaybeeCr]

@@Lakin3 Das hat auch einen einfachen Grund. Es gibt kaum Medien wie Filme usw. auf niederländisch. Wenn du in den Niederlanden also Fernsehen schauen willst solltest du englisch können ;)

[@SuperFlaten]

ich würde jetzt mal behaupten das eigentlich jeder deutsche englisch kann, aber nicht jeder es gerne spricht wenn er nicht so gut ist.

[@kapuzinergruft]

@@SuperFlaten 65 Prozent können sich auf geringem bis ausgezeichnetem Niveau unterhalten, viele im Osten können nur ein bisschen Russisch,

[@WanderlustWithT]

Danke! Learned a couple phrases. As a native English speaking, certain words are definitely tongue twisters but it's not too difficult to learn.

[@hdk7570]

Das deutsche Fragewort mit ä ;)

[@GiggleBasket21]

I'm currently learning German with duolingo and this really helped. Danke

[@exakter8555]

Ist lustig das als deutscher zu schauen 😂😅

[@BarbaraBoyle-qf3fg]

super helpful - especially the explanation for "genau"!

[@AnneEWilliamson]

Is it sad that I know most of these phrases from movies...though Deana trying to pronounce 'Sprichst Du Englisch?' reminds me of my attempting to pronounce Polish...pronunciation is so hard! But it's interesting how similar so many words are in English and German (Toilet vs. Toilette, etc.).

[@DeanaandPhil]

Ahh that's awesome that you knew these! 💜 Movies are the best way to learn languages. In college, I watched a ton of Chinese films. 😂😅 And, I definitely struggle with the German pronunciation! I can't get some of the words to save my life... I bet Polish is hard! It's really nice when the words are similar. Except, my favorite German word schmetterling is butterfly! 😂 Not even close!

[@Lakin3]

Actually English belongs to the German language family. If you know Southern German, Standard German, Northern German, Frisia, Dutch and English it is so interesting to see how the German more and more changes into English from Southern to Northern German to Frisia to Dutch to English. Also keep in mind thant the name England has to do with the folk groups of the Anglo and the Saxons which came from .... nowadays German/Danish territory.

[@ali2000hos]

@@Lakin3 True but English is mixed with French and Scandinavian languages.

[@nancydothermidor3065]

I like it a lot and I find it easier to focus and learn this way
