Lesson Vocabulary & Phrases
Wasn hier los?
vasn heer lohs
What's going on here?
💬 Spoken [was ist] often gets shortened to [wasn] in fast speech. You'll hear this a lot in emotional or casual talk: [Wasn das?] for [Was ist denn das?].
See breakdown →Liebes, die Wohnung ist verkauft.
lee-bes dee voh-nung ist fair-kowft
Honey, the apartment is sold.
🇩🇪 [Liebes] is an intimate pet name, something you'd say to a partner or close family member, not to strangers. It can sound especially soft or calming here before bad news.
See breakdown →Du hast gesagt
doo hahst ge-zahkt
You said
💬 Past actions often use two parts in everyday German: [hast gesagt] = "said." The helper verb changes with the person, but the main action often stays in its fixed form: [ich habe gesagt], [du hast gesagt].
See breakdown →Nichts verändert sich.
nikhts fayr-end-ert zikh
Nothing changes.
Du hast gesagt nichts verändert sich.
doo hast guh-zakt nikhts fayr-end-ert zikh
You said nothing would change.
💬 After [du hast gesagt], German often uses a full clause without [dass] in speech: [Du hast gesagt, nichts verändert sich.] In more careful speech you could also hear [Du hast gesagt, dass sich nichts verändert].
See breakdown →Und du hast gelogen.
oont doo hast guh-loh-guhn
And you lied.
Alles verändert sich.
ah-les fayr-end-ert zikh
Everything changes.
Alles.
ah-les
Everything.
Sogar du!
zo-gahr doo
Even you!
💬 [sogar] means [even] in the sense of adding something surprising or emphatic: [Sogar du!] = "even you!" You can reuse it easily: [Sogar er weiß das.]
