Native German speaker here. I know I am late to the party, but I have to say, I am impressed by how well you pronounce all those words. And yes, the W in German is pronouced simmilar to the V in English
Thanks to you I felt more secure about getting a 6 month subscription to Babbel to improve my French and increase my vocabulary and I have to say it's been a lot of fun! I've lived in France for about 6 months now and your videos made me feel more confident speaking with others here even if my French isn't top notch! Looking forward to see your German progress! Best of luck! :D
Aw thank you Catsin, that was a lovely comment to receive :) I'm so glad Babbel worked for you too and that you were able to boost your confidence. Keep up the good work!
This is such a brilliant video, Aurella! You’re right: there aren’t many beginner beginners on RUclips, especially beginners who have the approach to languages that you do (and I think most people do). Not everyone thinks grammar is exciting and “LangTube” is dominated by people more like me who are excited by grammar and pronunciation and so on. So thank you for making your videos, because I think they’re so helpful. (Also you look so beautiful) xxx
I really recommend watching at least the opening of Cabaret, ‘Wilkommen’. It’s a musical theatre song so it’s very clear, and has everything in English French and German. Very good for small phrases!
I‘m a native German and I speak Standard German because in my region there‘s no dialect spoken, so we speak „High German“ here and when you started the first lesson and you pronounced the 3 sentence „How are you? - Wie geht‘s?“ you actually pronounced it perfectly, like, if anyone just heard that they would think you were a native speaker Just wanted to tell you that because you kept looking in a weird way like you did it wrong but it was perfect haha
Hi :) i'm also learning German and yes. The "w" is like a "v" and the "v" is like an "f" and also, the German "r" is like the french one so you already have experience with that. :) Do you think is possible to pass the A1 level test using the 6 begginer levels in Babbel? Tell me with your experience in French. I want to pass that test for a visa. 😬😓 I'm from Venezuela 😊
Ah, I understand now, thanks Kimberly! Yes I think you'll be able to pass probably up to A2 with the 6 beginners courses. With the 6 beginners + 3 intermediate I got up to level B1. You can hear a lot more about my experience on my Babbel videos playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLbODW-Ywtw075kuI1YkePIRH3KZ8K9Qd- The 'how long did it take me to speak French?' and 'Exactly how I learnt French' videos are probably the most relevant to your question. Hope this helps :)
Yes, you are correct the German 'W' sounds like English 'V', also notice a few other sounds are like that - switched. Grab any book it will have those sounds in it - then it will make more sense to sit down to Babble and work it. This is what I am doing now ...
I really like watching the process of people learning a language so this was a cool video to watch. I think some people learn a language and then talk about it on RUclips and make it seem like it's an easy thing to do! Also I recommend using the podcast Coffee Break German. I have never studied German but I used Coffee Break French and Spanish to study French and Spanish and it was so helpful. There are free lessons that you can listen to and I would write stuff down as you listen so you can look over it. Good luck with German!
Your pronunciation wasn't bad! You just need to work on pronouncing the "ch" sounds right (there are two different ones), it's pretty difficult for English speakers!
Hi, I was thinking about learning German with Babbel, this video gave more confidence to do it, i was insecure about Babbel, but it seems like a good app.
I really want to learn that language, because I think it is a different one, got it? I know how to speak 4 (Portuguese-native language, Italian (learning), Spanish and English.. But when I finish studying Italian, i want to start studying French and then German.. It is a good website to start.. Thanks for your tips
Hey Maggie, I don't currently but it's something I would definitely consider making! I just saw now that I don't need to pay to use Spotify - I never knew that haha!!!
Yep, the free version comes with adverts. Just wanted to say that your videos are so so helpful for motivating me! Good luck on your German journey, I'll be following along. French used to seem like gobbledygook to me and I much preferred German, but only just today am I starting to get rid of my mental block on French and hopefully will go on a trip to Paris!
Thanks for signposting this for me! I'm a new subscriber and am currently working my way methodically through her videos and hadn't come across this one yet :)
Thank you Maggie! & thanks again for your comment, I've been wanting to do a RUclips French music series for almost a year now but I couldn't figure out a good way to do it with without actually playing the songs in the video. I'm thinking having a Spotify/RUclips playlist to go along side the video could make it work. I'm super excited about it now!! Best of luck with your learning!
I’m from Germany 🇩🇪 and learning Russia 🇷🇺 since we have 2 Ukraine 🇺🇦 refugees at home. So I gave Babbel a try. My parents are from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿, where you generally speak russia but we live in Germany so I had never to learn Russia until now. I will definitely set up a German Babbel account for both of the refugees! I can’t Wait for uncountable questions about „der, die and das“. It’s hard af when you didn’t grow up with the German language haha
Oooooohhhhh this is cool. I've never seen how babbel actually works.... I'm doing rosetta stone for French right now but I also have a book for learning French as well because I got it when I was younger and it wasn't helpful at all... I feel like I know a bit more now so it might be good to try some of that book again. I do really like the babble way too it seems very good. So would you pay per lesson or could you pay for all of it or what? I would definitely have to wait if I wanted to try it but it seems cool!
Hi LiaMarieM900, When you buy the subscription you gain access to all the French courses until your subscription ends. The length of subscription (I believe) are 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year. The price per month is cheaper the more you buy at once. Not many people know this, but if after the first week or so you don't like it, you can actually request a refund too. If at any point you stop paying for a subscription, you can still review all of the vocabulary you learnt and all your progress is saved if you want to re-start again in a couple months. Glad you found the video helpful! :)
Hi Aurella, Nice video! very informative. I just wanted to know if you recommend doing the course on your cell phone or laptop? Isn't it more convenient on the cell? I'm signing up for the German course in a few more days, Thanks
Comparing to your own language is slowing down the process extremly. Think about any baby on the world. It never will compare or questioning anything. Just listen and form your lips and keep things easy and seperated to anything you know. Clean slate is the best way learn a new language. Any baby in the world does this, with any language and any dialect. So can we.

Awesome:) Your pronounciation needs work, but I couldn't pronounce the ich for a good two-three months myself. Thank you for making such great content! I look forward to more:)
Wow t'es exactement comme moi! ça fait toute ma vie que j'étudie le français, mais je viens de commencer à apprendre l'allemand (bah ok, j'ai commencé il y a un année) mais, en tout cas, je m'intéresse à suivre ton progrès. Au début, je me sentais exactement le même à propos de l'allemand. J'ai trouvé l'allemand complètement diffèrent de rien que j'avais étudié.

Is this the one you posted yourself singing on Twitter? :D
Aurella YES
Sounds really funny when English people pronounce German. :D
Actually English and German language are so close to each other tho.
😉
Same for us English , when Germans try to speak in English it sounds funny 😀
I‘m a native German and I speak Standard German because in my region there‘s no dialect spoken, so we speak „High German“ here and when you started the first lesson and you pronounced the 3 sentence „How are you? - Wie geht‘s?“ you actually pronounced it perfectly, like, if anyone just heard that they would think you were a native speaker
Just wanted to tell you that because you kept looking in a weird way like you did it wrong but it was perfect haha
Your "Wie geht's?" is great👍 When I just hearing this part I would say you are german😊
Wow thank you Pauli !! :)
Please keep up with these videos! I’ve just downloaded the app myself to learn German!!
I just gave a thumbs up for the intro alone. I came right off one of your french videos and wasn't expecting that.
Wer ist hier deutsch???🤣😂
Ich😂
Das hört sich so lustig an wenn sie deutsch spricht😂
Ich bin auch deutsch. Ich lerne gerade Italienisch, das ist meine siebte Sprache.
Ich nicht

Thank you Sarah! Congratulations on your German :)
Your pronunciation wasn't bad! You just need to work on pronouncing the "ch" sounds right (there are two different ones), it's pretty difficult for English speakers!
When you said "gut" at the end it sounded like a native speaker!
Thank you for your advice Mam! :)
Love this video. I just started learning Dutch. Keep going and best greetings from Vienna/Austria.
Thank you :) :)
Ooo cool intro! Love the video, you are going to do great with German!
Good luck!! ♥
Thank you Languagesenrose !

I’m learning german and i use babbel! it helps a lot and its very affordable 👍🏼
I hope that I will pass my A1 test for my visa.
Hi, I was thinking about learning German with Babbel, this video gave more confidence to do it, i was insecure about Babbel, but it seems like a good app.
Did you ever continue learning German? We miss you in the language learning world. You inspired a lot of people including myself.
Sehr gut gemacht

But when I finish studying Italian, i want to start studying French and then German.. It is a good website to start.. Thanks for your tips
(Not related to German...) Do you have a spotify with a playlist of your favourite French songs? From a new French learner :)
Hey Maggie, I don't currently but it's something I would definitely consider making!
I just saw now that I don't need to pay to use Spotify - I never knew that haha!!!

I'm daunted more by having to type out the words.
I’m really excited for you! French is such a pretty language but I’ve never heard anyone speak German.
I am french and I learn english and german too but I am 13 ...
