So, I could do this way, right? Ania ä = ae ö = oe ü = ue ß = ss These are another challenges, but you make it easier and fun to learn, Dankeschoen, Ania
Only person who actually is the best for absolute beginners, i learn much in record time. You follow the immersion method focusing on real life, pronounciation and German life which is the best way and i learnt turkish in 2 months by it. Thank you for this series, the reading stories series and more to go!
Thank you so much. You answered my exact question and so much more. All of your information was helpful and to the point. I give an A+ to a wonderful, generous teacher and a big thank you.
I'm an Indian and I just recognised ß now while I was searching in RUclips and this happened I was so curious to know that this was in my keyboard thanks Aina for your German lessons 🥰
Thank you for the clarification over the ß. I encountered a plenty of the ß when I had to read a bunch of maps rendered in German. For example, Russia = Rußland. (When I first found the ß in Rußland, I had a feeling that this ß was not equivalent to the letter B. Instead, it must be representing a some sort of 'ss' sound, but I was not able to figure out why the ß instead of 'ss' back then.)
The snake goes ßßß then, I'm a native spanish speaker. And to us it sounds like a sharp S, which is not a academically recognized sound, but it is present in some variants of spanish, like in argentinian spanish where the z sounds is ignored completely and replaced by s or sharp s sounds, or even this little fella "ç" that is not a character in spanish but is definitely a present sound that replaces this one "z"
Loving your videos ☺. Just came back from visiting friends in Germany. I really enjoy learning German and I'm teaching my son who is half German. He is only 15 months old but has already learnt what nein means. He crys more to this than No lol. Thankyou, you are an amazing teacher ☺x x x
Thank you for this explanation! I have been pronouncing it three different ways: The correct way Like 'sh', so I was saying "weißt" like "veisht" And like 'z', so groß was "grohz" I wasnt sure which was right so this really helps. Does anyone know if there are any accents where the other two ways are said? I'm not really sure where I got the idea they were options
Don't think the "z" pronunciation exists, but the "veisht" (or more like "veish" most of the time) pronounciation is used in the region of Schwaben all the way in the south west of Germany. But it's dialect and not really "correct" so it would be weird to just say it like that if you don't talk in the dialect all the time :D Hope this was informative :)
As a native English speaker with germanic family, and honours in English - it still sound more like sz, or a slightly buzzy s sound, to me. Ps; not arguing. Just offering a different perspective. To elaborate, an s sound to me is soft, like a snake hiss, but a ß sounds like a softer z, or sharper s. So like a middle ground. Great video though. And I love your entire series.
it makes me happy that so many people are trying to learn German:) have fun! Es macht mich glücklich, das so viele Leute versuchen Deutsch zu lernen:) viel Spaß dabei!
Tchüß and Tchüss are just differente forms of writing the same word? They are exactly the same? I have read this online and I got confused about it. Not sure if they are exactly the same thing written in different ways: "In northern and central Germany, tschüss is a standard goodbye in all but official situations, with the north preferring the older form tschüß"... Danke schön, Anja.
I hope you can respond to this question that has been bugging me: double consonants before a vowel usually means the vowel is short right? So, in my book "kaffee" should sound like "kuh-fay" but instead it sounds like "kah-fay" with a long A. This is throwing me off. Is it because the word is stressed in the second syllable or some other rule? This book doesn't explain why this word doesn't follow the double consonant rule and I want to know why or else i cannot proceed
In a Mac (using SPANISH ISO keyboard as default) and Microsoft Word, the way to get the ß is actually "ALT/option" + "B". I don´t know if to works as you say in USA/English keyboards.
If I recall, the old German script it was actually sz, and looked similar to the Greek letter beta. I'm curious if in ancient times past if the pronunciation was different.
I think it has it's origin in the old german "sütterlin" letters which was used up until the end of ww2. Cause it's sz ("eszett") aka a mix between s and z, where in sütterlin the lower case s looked more like a long Latin f without the horizontal line and the lower case z looked more like the number 3, so in combination: f + 3 = ß
I always thought if ß is pronounced ص (put your tongue on your bottom teeth to say it) as ص is actually called Arabic sharp S and indeed sounds sharper than normal S. This apply for ㅆ (Korean double S), said sound sharper than the single consonant
In German orthography, the letter ß, called Eszett or scharfes S, represents the phoneme in Standard German when following long vowels or diphthongs. The name Eszett combines the names of the letters of ⟨s⟩ and ⟨z⟩ in German. The character's Unicode names in English are sharp s and eszett. Wikipedia Language of origin: Early New High German Other letters commonly used with: ss, sz Phonetic usage: s Writing system: Latin script
If you have a PC and your keyboard has the nummeric keypad, the one in the right of the keyboard, not the upper nummeric keys, you can make the ß appear, while pressing Left CTRL, press 0223 in the nummeric keypad. Hope this helps the ones that didn't know about this. Tchüß!
Oh danke ania now I can write ß danke schün i was doing it course of a1 German and stopped at 12 part because of this asset(ß) but now I can do it and I feel so free doing it
Good evening! Thank you for the fantastic German learning course. I feel that already I am learning a bit. I would like to ask you if you sell the course on internet or any other form? Have a good Evening
The "ß" is a ligature of two forms of the letter s: The "long" version that you see in old documents like The Declaration of Independence (ʃ or ſ) and the regular letter s.
Oh but you DO have it on your keyboard! I just discovered it by accident while holding down "option" and typing an "s". (hence the reason I just found this video) Although, this may only apply to MAC computers(?) Anyway, Danke and ... 🌸 Aloha from Hawaii 🌴
So, I could do this way, right? Ania
ä = ae
ö = oe
ü = ue
ß = ss
These are another challenges, but you make it easier and fun to learn, Dankeschoen, Ania

You can use the AltGr + S key for the ß letter.
I have a Brazilian keyboard layout, so I don't know if that will work for everyone
Danke! This helped a lot!
I'm an Indian and I just recognised ß now while I was searching in RUclips and this happened I was so curious to know that this was in my keyboard thanks Aina for your German lessons 🥰
Danke Ania. You help me a lot for my assignment video.😍😍😍👍🏻
Thank you Anja, that was very helpful. 😉👍🏽👍🏽
Type the following key combination : Alt + 0 2 2 3 : ß
Does this letter have any connection to the long-s-character ſ used in old English?
Das ist ein normales S.
Danke! I'm learning german so when im older i can go to germany for a holiday. Also to get in touch with my german heritage!
Dear Ania ❤(viel Liebe) I subscribed to learn how to pronounce german words, but I learned so much more.💯Geil! Danke schön.🍾 Prost! 🍻

Hi Ania, thank you so much for the video. When I press "S", the pop-up also shows ś and š. Are they alternatives of ß? If not, how to pronounce it?

'ß' can be found on Android by holding down the regular 's' key
Thank you for posting this lesson

HEIß I'm already learning a bit 🙂 big like on the video 🤙
I have an international keyboard layout installed, so to type the letter ß I just have to hold alt while pressing the 's' key.
saludos desde Guatemala, no entiendo mucho de lo que dices pero, me es un gusto ver tus vídeos
ania du bist gut. viel Erfolg.
☺This is sooooo helpful. The word "Is" is produced like "Iz". It is "Iß"?? Thank you

nice learning's I like your teaching
In a Mac (using SPANISH ISO keyboard as default) and Microsoft Word, the way to get the ß is actually "ALT/option" + "B". I don´t know if to works as you say in USA/English keyboards.
Mreh someone was saying "æ" (which is said something like "gna") was pronounced like "the german letter ß"
On a Windows machine, the eszett (ß) can be written by pressing alt 0223.
Very nice explaning
dankeschön für die gute erklärung
When is it used? After 1) long vowels and 2) dipthongs
So if I do this ßß will I get in trouble?
If I recall, the old German script it was actually sz, and looked similar to the Greek letter beta. I'm curious if in ancient times past if the pronunciation was different.
I think it has it's origin in the old german "sütterlin" letters which was used up until the end of ww2.
Cause it's sz ("eszett") aka a mix between s and z,
where in sütterlin the lower case s looked more like a long Latin f without the horizontal line
and the lower case z looked more like the number 3, so in combination: f + 3 = ß
Vielen dank ania sus
I love ur videos and I am learning . do u sell any dvds? or any online course bcoz I love ur lessons .
How can i write it in mobile keyboard?
Use a german keyboard, if you dont find it long press on s
I always thought if ß is pronounced ص (put your tongue on your bottom teeth to say it) as ص is actually called Arabic sharp S and indeed sounds sharper than normal S. This apply for ㅆ (Korean double S), said sound sharper than the single consonant
Thank you!!!!

ß is a B but a little bit round and the edges are curved, beginners are confused: is ß a B?
If you have a PC and your keyboard has the nummeric keypad, the one in the right of the keyboard, not the upper nummeric keys, you can make the ß appear, while pressing Left CTRL, press 0223 in the nummeric keypad. Hope this helps the ones that didn't know about this. Tchüß!
I think he meant to say the Alt key. And in some editors you have to have the num-lock key on.
Oh danke ania now I can write ß danke schün i was doing it course of a1 German and stopped at 12 part because of this asset(ß) but now I can do it and I feel so free doing it

Hi Ania , I really like your Vide Super!
I don't understand why ß is used and not S when it sounds exactly the same. Why for example Spaß and not Spas?
danke ania
tschüss. sehr schön
In German words like Großtraktor, do we have to pronounce it as groshtraktor or just grostraktor?
"Groostraktor" with long o
You're great

on windows hold [ALT] while typing 225 (on keypad) ß▐
I just went to my Deutschland option on my keyboard and it was on there - ß!! With the numbers.

Ania, what is the homework for this video???
The "ß" is a ligature of two forms of the letter s: The "long" version that you see in old documents like The Declaration of Independence (ʃ or ſ) and the regular letter s.
mrcydonia almost. It‘s a combination of that „long version“ of the s and the german cursive „z“
ẞ yay I got to know how to write
nice learning's

On windows hold down the right hand alt key and press s, a, o or u to get ß á ó ú .
On my PC that does not work. Also, your characters have accent marks not umlauts.
