[YohannesF16]

apfesine!!!!! LoL I told mz German wife about this word she was about to kick me out of the house, Just kidding but i have never heard any German saying that ,even in Malls you will never see it written on signs.

[aleksinjo1]

Die Apfelsine ??? ok my dad is German and i grew up in German, but i have never heard for my inteire life spent there the word "sie Apfelsine"!!

[Gleichtritt]

@aleksinjo1 its correct.

[snakelemon]

@aleksinjo1 well, the word "apfesine" exists, BUT it's not common to say this today any more, the most germans just use "die Orange" - that's it ;-)

[Angelsharkz]

Most Germans say "Die Orange" and not "Die Apfelsine"

[Gleichtritt]

@Angelsharkz kommt drauf an wo man lebt.

[huntbug1]

@Angelsharkz würde ich auch sagen

[pagalmariam1]

@Angelsharkz actually, I am German and grew up by saying "Apfelsine"

I think it depends where you grow up. there are a lot of differences in how we say somthing in North, South, East, West or Middel Germany

I am from North Germany and there people say Apfelsine, but I also lived in East Germany for a while and there it was common to say Orange...

[vesevio]

Ich hasse diese nervige Stimme, mit der monotonen, nervzerreißenden Musik im Hintergrund.

Ich krieg Kopfweh.

[angelofdeathx9]

the word peach is hard! lol

[odyseusgamer]

for those who dont know:

die - feminine nouns

der - masculine nouns

das - neutral nouns

[C3P0meetsData]

@odyseusgamer Is there anything about the words themselves that indicate the gender besides the article? (Like how in spanish words that end with "o" are masculine and words that end with "a" are feminine")

[yinyangman54321]

@C3P0meetsData no, theres not, unfortunately. you have to memorize them by der, die, or das.

[Iputhebapu]

@wackygirl11 Das ist Nonsense,was Du da redest, natürlich stimmt es zu einem gewissen Teil, was Du sagst. Aber man kann schon rein von der Bedeutung des Wortes her,das Geschlecht erahnen, so wird das Nomen Krieg eher mit männlichen Eigenschaften in Verbindungen gebracht und bekam so seinen maskulinen Artikel: der Krieg.Oder Besipielsweise, der Kunde und die Kunde, beides stimmt, das eine ist der, der in einem Laden einkauft, und das andere ist die Nachricht, beide Artikel durch Synonyme geklärt.

[snowycloud]

if the word ends in "e" then its die

[MrBPR2008]

Could please explain the stuff with 'der die das'

[TheWrachspurt]

@MrBPR2008

there's nothing to explain ... you just have to learn which word has "der", "die" or "das"

i'ts quite hard i know, some germans have also still problem with this :P

[Iputhebapu]

@TheWrachspurt NONSENSE!!!

[FuneralsRFatal]

I think i could really enjoy this and find them very useful if it wasn't for the music. It is distracting and makes the pronouncement hard to hear.

[resolutethings]

Almost all the fruits' names have "die." :)

Thanks for the video!

[cillian2411]

this is hard lol

[FlowerOfDarkness95]

if you want, i can explain you this stuff with 'der die das'. if you want to.

[Iutubsucks]

yes, please. would you explain it to me? danke schon!

[Iputhebapu]

@Iutubsucks U can try to figure it out by thinking about the word, the noun: war becomes the male articel, Der, in german, because the noun war got much more connections to the male gender than to the a women, a feminim gender. Its quite funny when u know that the articel for saw in german "Die" is. My English needs a refreshing, i know...;)

[copypacercopypacer]

@FlowerOfDarkness95 plz

[Semoclew]

@FlowerOfDarkness95 Can u explain to me about 'der, die and das'?

[Michael10391]

@Semoclew i don't know if this helps you: "Der" is used at male things (like he): - Der Ball ist groß = the ball is big - Der Computer ist leistungsstark = the computer is powerful - Der Kohl ist grün = the cabbage is green "Die" is used at female things (like she): - Die Garage ist offen = the garage is open - Die Musik ist extrem laut = the music is extremely loud "Das" is hard to explain... It is used if it has not a gender :D (like it) - Das Kunstwerk ist schön = the artwork is beautiful

[Semoclew]

@Michael10391 oh, thanks for the explanation. :D But, i still don't get the male and female thing. how do you know which one is 'he' or 'she'? I don't get the difference. sorry, i really want to learn German but some things like this is hard for me to understand :P but thanks a lot for explaining, again :)

[Michael10391]

@Semoclew Hmm, i think i don't can help you found the difference... :( I'm from Germany so i can that by birth...

I think there isn't a way to successfully learn the rules as a non native speaker, unfortunately :( So i think you have to learn the article additionally to the word.

This probably is the only way to learn it, i think... But you're not alone :) I really want to learn more English, but its also hard for me, because I'm not a talent about foreign languages :(

[Michael10391]

@Michael10391 Although the English language is easier to learn...

I really want to help you, because i really understand you, that you want to learn a language and you can't... :( So if you want i can give you words/sentences with articles to help you :) Maybe this will improve my English too, so we both are the winners :D If you want add me in ICQ(324438581) or Skype(eltarion.blubba)...

I'm not often online, but i will try to go more online.

[Semoclew]

@Michael10391 oh, okay. I think German is very interesting but its a hard language to master, so you're very lucky to be a native speaker ;) yeah, i'm not good with foreign languages either. :P haha, i'm not on9 often either, and i don't really use skype, sorry :P how about i add u as friend then u can send me messages on youtube? i think that your english is already good but i'll be happy to help u improve your english too. :D
