    What you need to do to be my intro:
    Record yourself saying the following things:
    "Hallo Leute! Ich bin ___ (You can say whatever you want here - name, (youtube) nickname, where you live, where you're from, why you're learning German, or anything else you'd like, one or more things. It's best if you do this part in German, too, but if you're too shy, English is fine as well - just try to keep the video to roughly 10 seconds or shorter) und ihr seht Deutsch Für Euch!"
    Please don't edit your videos; if you'd like something changed (e.g. color correction), let me know in your email. I'll make sure to make you look as good as possible anyway, though ;)
    I can use a lot of video formats, but your safest bets are the usual candidates: .avi, .mov, .mp4 - DON'T use .dv, please.
    Once you're happy with your video, send it to me via ONE of these channels:
    - attach the video to an email to dfekontakt@gmail.com
    - send me a DropBox link/invite me to a folder (also dfekontakt@gmail.com)
    - send me a link to a the video on RUclips, also via mail
    - please title your message "DFE Intro"
    There's NO time limit for this, this will be an on-going thing as long as you send me videos.
    I'm looking forward to your submissions - feel free to get creative with it! :)

    First, let me be honest: I will never forget the gargling at 4:10.
    Second: a few months ago I spent a few days in a hotel near (Banhof) Friedrichstraße. That is THE German word to be pronounced: once I manage to pronounce Friedrichstrasse correctly, I will pass the R-test. Tschüss!

    It's insane to me that you're a native German speaker, speaking English as a second language (although obviously you speak it constantly), and you're somehow able to do a better English and Australian accent than most American English speakers. Your brain is wired for sound! I share your sound-recreation abilities to a lesser degree and I equate it to my ear for music. You must have an insane ear for music too, amirite??

    • @DeutschFuerEuch
      @DeutschFuerEuch  10 лет назад +4

      Thank you :) It's alright, but I struggle with harmonies most of the time. I have no problem with guessing my way through a melody from hearing it and have recreated a few easier songs I couldn't find sheet music for, but recreating second voices is a true pain in the ass to near impossible - it just takes me way too long. Music is definitely one of my more secondary talents; I enjoy it, but I don't have the potential to reach greatness. As you said, my ear is totally with languages. I "feel" a sound in my mouth or get a sort of mental image what my tongue should be doing once I hear it a few times (doesn't mean I don't have to practice). French is my sworn enemy on that so far, though. I have the sounds figured out, but recreating them sends my tongue into temper tantrums :D

  • @MrLAntrim
    @MrLAntrim 10 лет назад +12

    I guess I never really paid much attention to the letters preceding the "r" in order to decide what pronunciation to use. It just seemed natural to me to say it in the various ways. Maybe I just heard it often enough from my teachers, movies, music, and so on. Great lesson, though. I'll be using this with my students in the fall. Thanks.

  • @kingbeauregard
    @kingbeauregard 8 лет назад +4

    Soft consonants = voiced (b d g)
    Hard consonants = unvoiced (p t k etc)
    The difference is whether the vocal cords are used or not -- try to say "p" with vocal cords and you get "b", try to say "d" without vocal cords and you get "t" . That might be easier to remember than lists of consonants.

Then swallowed some water and tried again, then swallowed another little amount of water in my mouth and tried again and like that until I've got no water in my mouth. I think this way works better..

    In Brazilian Portuguese the "r" can be pronounced differently depending on where you're from. The word for "door" is PORTA, and in my neck of the woods we pronounce it like the american "r" and we are bullied for that! (no one on TV speaks like that, ever! lol). Some Brazilians would pronounce it as if they were Spanish Speakers, rolling their tongues! Last but not least comes the standard pronunciation which is closest to the German "r"...being the one used on TV. Funny thing is that I would have to modify my "Portuguese" to teach the standardized version of it!. =P

    @noboru1195 6 лет назад +1

    The voiceless velar fricative (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_velar_fricative ) ("ach-Laut"/"ach-sound") is not an "r" sound. See also

  • @knickknackgurl07
    @knickknackgurl07 9 лет назад

    I've been having trouble with the more 'throaty' Rs, and just having you describe how its similar to the 'ch' sound was so helpful. I took Spanish for a long time so my Rs tend to trill or come from the front of my mouth when looking at foreign words (but never in English?), so 'moving' the sound to the back of my tongue for German is really challenging.

    @abdullahturgut1851 10 лет назад

    Ich bin mit der südlichen Variante der Aussprache des R's völlig zufrieden, da ich in Bayern geboren bin :) Ist auch ein Pluspunkt,wenn man Italienisch und Spanisch lernen möchte. Das gutturale R mag ich irgendwie nicht. Das Zungenspitzen-R-Laut ist viel besser.
    Franzosen und Araber sollten keine Probleme haben das gutturale R aussprechen. Ich kann es zwar auch (da ich als Kind Arabischunterricht hatte). Aber irgendwie gefältt mir das Zungenspitzen-R viel besser, da ich seit einigen Jahren Spanisch lerne, kommt es mir sehr gelegen.
    Deine Videos sind echt toll. Weiter so.

  • @80dmack
    @80dmack 9 лет назад

    You made a comment about not trilling or rolling your tongue when creating an "r" sound, but I've seen other assumed native German speakers do just that. Just like in the case of the "er" version of "r" is it possible some speakers adjust the textbook pronunciation of "r" for the [R] instances.

    I can do the last two r's you explained with absolutely no issues. It's the first one that keeps giving me problems. I don't think I'm putting my tongue in the right place and keep getting various sounds that just don't sound right. I either get a slight rolling or the harsher sound of the second r. And when I put my tongue super far back like you said, it sounds like a cross between a muffled r and a moan. Not really sure how to fix it...

  • @mehmetalisuret9874
    @mehmetalisuret9874 9 лет назад +1

    in Turkish we have a very similar sound to that German r. It is ğ. But it is softer than this sound. When you pronounce r in German it is like pronouncing it in Turkish r+ğ. It is also like Paris in French. The French have that sound also I guess. And I have wondered if that sound in French has sth to do with franks being German in ancient times. They became Latin but maybe that r+ğ sound survived.

    • @DeutschFuerEuch
      @DeutschFuerEuch  9 лет назад

      Huh, interesting. Unfortunately, I never got past "Thank you" and "Hello" in Turkish :D Yep, the Hochdeutsch r is pretty much the same as the French r and it is indeed because of a French influence on the North-West of Germany (where Hochdeutsch came from), not the other way around :)

    @krang07 9 лет назад

    Your American english accent is spot-on. You seem to have a very good grasp at proper accents, probably in a lot of different languages too. You could have a lot of fun with it, like speaking as if you were an Australian visiting Amsterdam and telling your friends `the Dutch are funny because they speak like`,well,`however it maybe sounded like to an Aussie, just as an example. Also, as in America, or any of the European countries, there are different accents depending on what part of the country you were in. Same holds true in Germany I suspect? We often sort of make fun of those types of accents, whether we are from there, or not from that area. Like when you said `care bear`, a New Yorker accent would sound like, `key-yuh beeyuh` or if you were from the south like Texas, it would sound like. `car bar` :-)

      Depends... The first two are used in French depending on the context (Applied mostly in the same way as in German)

    This bideo show the vocalized r and the throat r's in German. In parallel to the throat R there is an r spoken with the tip of the tongue (please see de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimmhafter_alveolarer_Vibrant )

    I think I might just pronounce the "r" in 2 way, the French r at the beginning of a syllable, and the softened British schwa sound at the end of a syllable. After watching this video, I think I must have been wrong. Vielen Dank!

      That's really not far off, though :) I think that might be the way many people actually do it in coversation. As I said, as long as you don't roll or english, the biggest step has already been taken :)

    When I say the 'r' it often comes out as a uvular trill. Based on what many Germans have said that it's more like the /ʁ/, but to my ear it's often either very brief or very smooth, there isn't that fricative quality to it as in /x/.
    Also the gargling method seems pretty ridiculous. I just tried it again, the turbulence comes mostly from air flow arising through the liquid and it doesn't really indicate where the dorsum should be.
    Now thinking about the hundreds of hours I spent on practicing this sound, it's mostly playing around /ɐ/ /x/ /ɢ/ /ʕ/ and whatnot...

    Das Wasser hilft nicht. Man muss einfach das deutsche R üben um den richtigen Klang zu finden. Trotzdem... vielen Dank fürs Video. Es hat geholfen :)

    The original German R is rolled, this guttural R is started in some French dialects a few hundred years ago and spread throughout the Rheinland and then spread like a wild fire and i've always been wondering why is it so influential even some Swiss German and Bavarian youths adopted this French R, I still think the rolled R sounds better though just in my opinion.

    • @DeutschFuerEuch
      @DeutschFuerEuch  10 лет назад

      The "original" is not all too relevant in language... nearly none of the stuff I teach on this channel would be considered the "original" way. Personal preference is, of course, entirely up to you :)

    I would even go as far as to say that I don't even use the right r in words like Bart, Start, Wurf, Ort and verwirrend. When I pronounce these words I sounds more like Baat, Staat, Wuaf, Oat, verwi-jend (kinda hard to put these into letters)

    Hallo! Die Videos sind toll! Ich finde, dass wenn jemand auf Englisch deutsche Sache erklaert, das macht schoen. :) Auch deine Amercan accent ist sehr ... genau? Warst du einmal in Amerika?
    Anyway.
    Ich werde bald in Deutschland (Magdeburg (an der Elbe)) studieren. Ich glaube, dass mein Akzent ein bisschen schlecht ist, aber die Videos wirklich helfen.
    I'm sitting here in my room, rurrrrrrrring away like a cat, feeling rather silly, but good people like you take the time to help. Ich hoffe, dass ich gute Menschen wie du treffe, wann ich in Deutschland bleiben, das waere schoen, haha

    Thanks the video. Katja. Someone below mentioned the rolling of the R in German. I know that Bavarians and Austrians certainly do this ( albeit not as strong as the roll in the Spanish R). I think some other German speakers roll their Rs ( I saw an interview with Willy Brandt from 1964 on youtube and he gently rolled some of his Rs and he came from Luebeck). The problem is that I find that, while I can pronounce the guttural Rs exactly as you suggest while practising, when I am engaged in a long conversation or reading out a long text, I find that my throat finds it difficult to pronounce the guttural R, almost like suddenly running out of breath. For example, saying "restrukturieren" in the middle of a long conversation. Is it really so wrong to gently roll a R from time to time - is it simply a matter of regional preference, as with the A in British English? Or does a rolling of a R sound weird, unless the person has an Austrian or Bavarian accent? I would be grateful for your thoughts.
