[alexis4982]

Thank you so much, This will help me lots!

I am German - but my father stopped teaching me it when I was little, so I want to pick it back up. But because it has been so long, I have forgotten lots.

[tikiblunt]

Vielen Dank Herr im neu bei diesem so hilft es lol.

[Gotcha100able]

At the last , i laugh but great job.

[CarissimaCarissa]

That helped a ton! Particularly with the umlauts, I've always had trouble with them. I love that "kissie face" technique.. very strange, yet very helpful.

Btw, cute head bobs when you pronounce the letters.. xD

Thanks for posting ^^ looking forward to watching your other vids!

[BAILEYxTENDO]

Can I Just Say I Love You(In A None Creepy Way). You Are Amazing!! And Your Videos Helped Me Pass My German Final. And Now I Can Go Vist Germany. So Again You Are Amazing. Oh And Really Good English!!

[AnJnTV]

you are too cute :) thank you soooooooooo much ! I am trying to learn German all by my self and this really help. Danke :)

[FancyMoblin]

Thank you so much!

I'm taking German in college and your videos have really, really helped.

Thank you for using English words to help with the pronunciation otherwise I think I still would be flailing when it comes to pronouncing the ü and ö.

Again, thank you! Yours are some of the best pronunciation videos I've seen.

[bhubba01]

Wow, great English! I speak basic German but I'm horrible with umlaut pronunciation. However, I'm a little bit better now! Thanks!

[warzoneWoW]

my teacher it teaching us the alphabet as...ah bay zey day....idk y she dosent say be ze de......anyone able to explain for me plz

[Julinalein]

@warzoneWoW where are you from? I guess the US? be ze de is the right way. I think the other is mixed with your "foreign" accent.

[8deafears9]

Thank you so much! This was perfect!

[sinancans]

awesome tutorial

[dylanparkway]

Thank you! Your patience made it easier for me to follow and that you made comparisons to the English language...I am going to use this video now to learn the German alphabet.

[Hando1933]

Great vid, really helped, thanks! I know alot of german words but im pretty sure im pronouncing them incorrectly, hopefully this will help me when i go back to Berlin in November. Great english by the way!!

[gracepuipui]

that is really great! espeically with ü!

but i really want to ask...what is the difference between e and i in german? i have listened to it many times in many youtube videos but still can't hear the difference:(

[nickibri]

Hey BloodyTomato!

This is AWESOME! My 11 year old son and I really enjoyed it.

I'm traveling to Germany and Austria next month and wanted to know how to pronounce the letters in the alphabet and you helped a bunch!

Great work! I hope you post more :)

Danke!

[MyLuckyLilFellow321]

[FallenAngel2737]

I like your accent I'm Part German I love the language I live in Amrica so I dont know it thats why I want to learn it I have been learning Russian as well I love both languages. Their both beautiful.

[abhinvict]

[GustavTOKIO]

oh my gosh wow i love your vids they are extremely helpful!!!!! :D

i was literally jumping up and down and clapping cuz i learned the pronunciations xD omg again thank you sooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

[shelley2311]

WOW, your video's are amazing, ive just graduated from University in Scotland and am bored so decided to try and learn German as I have always wanted to know how to speak the language and your video's are amazing. I couldn't get my head around the pronunciation of some letters and sounds and these video's have just made it so simple and easy to remember and learn. Thanks very much for having the confidence to upload these video's your a life saver :D x

[K33p3r99]

Very helpful. Thank you very much.

[AmiAminaru]

Very helpful! I was having lots of trouble with the letter differences ;-; and on a random note you're so cuuuute.

[HalloFusilli]

I'm certainly very thankful that you were in the end courageous enough to make this very helpful vid. =)

[themanisheab180237ce]

cheers bro very good!

[mehcon]

I love it soooo much. Thank you for this vid!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your the best!!!

[sadiew1990]

you don't seem that nervous in it, and no I thought your english was really good. maybe you speak better when not nervous, I don't know, but this was way good. You've obviously have had a lot of practice. I'm gonna study German to the Goethe Institute (which is why I need to know how to pronounce better). but yeah, this stuff is crazy helpful. luckily your friend needed help I guess, helped a lot of others

[Serenity420me]

Vielen Dank!

I've been taking German for 2 years now. Believe it or not, the teacher never actually taught us the alphabet.

and the umlauts have always tripped me up. this really helped a lot.

now i can refine my skills and sound decent. :D

[sadiew1990]

oh my god! thanks you so much! I'm going to Freiburg and have the hardest time speaking and telling the difference between the u, ü, o, ö, so i've been worried. I just can never hear or say it so my wurde and würde sound the same (and that totally changes the meaning of course). But the pucker face (kissing mouth) thing really works great ^^ I'll look weird but at least they will understand me lol. thanks!

really good english btw. and very cool (although not too strong, which is good) accent

[Bloodytomato23]

@sadiew1990 oh thanks alot for the feedback ^^ ive never imagined that this request of a close friend would actually help so many other people

ahh...i was really nervous, personally i think that my english sucked in these ones =O

Freiburg? What are you gonna do there? Ive been there once, many french people though =P

[phsycopiano]

@Bloodytomato23 Dude english was perfect. I want to learn how to speak german..

I want to go there soooooo bad.

[resistance1986]

@Bloodytomato23 No way dude! Your english is great. So clear. These videos are so helpful! :)

[90Rhapsody]

thanks for the upload very helpful

lol the R in german sounds like R in french

[darkdisaster16]

@90Rhapsody

I found a few letters in the German alphabet that were similar to French letters.

[BrainsOmNomNom]

I thought the Ü was like in the word goo

[mschap24]

Not exactly, more like a 'vomiting' noise, 'ue' if you will.

:)

[kindle1085]

This is very helpful. I knew most of my alphabet but your explinations did help with the letters that I didn't have 100%.

BTW you get more and more charming as the video goes on.

[bowie729]

this video is really helpful:)

[katiediddidwhat]

haha, i like your headbob after you said the umlaut u. weird how that kissy face actually worked. hearing you pronounce these are very helpful.

[Everclear51]

So helpful!

Thank you much!!!!!!!!! ;)

[bexled]

thank you, im trying to learn german. and i have the most trouble with pronunciation :///. ur video is really helpful

[RunningWolfProductin]

I love your litle head bob thing you got going on there :)

I love this tutorial. VERY VERY helpful!

[jyb061]

I think your video is the most helpful one for my pronunciation so far!

appreciate your help

[Bloodytomato23]

Thanks alot ^-^

[SuperTodaiNinja]

Thank you very much!!  I just started teaching myself German to in touch with my Heritage. (i'm very proud to be german!) This really helped a lot with the pronunciations ^_^

[Bloodytomato23]

I'm glad I could help =)

[Snakeblud]

i really need to have my oma teach me german

[xaidenBoox]

My heritage is German, but i and my parents speak only english, do you know any ways that i can learn German easily ??

[becommonppl]

Haha, i think i get what you mean. Nope, she's not. She spent some years in Germany, though. ;)

Anyway, thanks for your kind help! I really appreciate it.

[becommonppl]

Great tutorial, man!

Is there any difference between the pronunciations of 'e' and 'i'? They sound exactly the same to me. My German teacher pronounce 'e' in a way similar to 'eh' in English (only shorter), but i've checked many resources and they pronounce them the way you do. Would you please help me out?

I appreciate your help.

[Bloodytomato23]

( Is your German teacher German =P)

Well, there are two different *e* in German , take the word * Leben* ( life)

the first e is long ( Leee---) and the second e is short ( close the English * eh?* )

There are also two kinds of i in German.

1. Bitte ( please) here the i is very short ( close to the English *eh* again) because all double consonants ( ss, rr, tt, ff, gg etc.) make the vowel before short

2. tief ( deep) here the i+e create a long i , similar to the english word * deep*;)

[SomthingnotRight]

what about the letter ß. How do you pronounce that letter. Its not a B or is it??? I dont know .

[Bloodytomato23]

The umlauts, the ß and the ch are presented in part two of this video ;)

[Ohrblind]

siehst aus wie toni kroos^^
