First Steps I: ABC-Menü, Greetings, Articles(EN)

Hello and welcome to the first post of this blog!
Well, let's go to the stuff. On each post regarding learning German, you'll see some grammar and verb stuff.

German, you might know, has HUNDREDS of articles, but, I'll begin with some article sheets, the pronouns, the ABC-Menü and the greetings.

In German, "e" sounds like it does in "Germany", "a" spunds like it does in "pizza", "u" does NOT sound like in "you", sounds more like in 'oo', and "i" sounds like in "it".


ABC-Menü
Deutsch = pronunciation in German
a = a
b = be(not as the verb)
c = ce
d = de
e
f = fe
g = ge
h = ha
i
j = iot(actually, 'j' sounds like German 'i')

k = ka
l = el 
m = em
n = en
o
p = pe
q = ku(German 'u')r = er
s = es
t = te
u
w = we('w' sounds like 'v')
x = iks
y = üpsilon (at the end of the list will appear the pronounciation of "strange" letters)z = tset

Umlaute
ä = like 'a' in orange - German 'e'
ö = face of 'o' and tell 'u'(German 'u')
ü = face of 'u'(the German version) and 'i'(German version too)

Nur auf Deutsch(only existent in German)

ß = eszett


Greetings When Welcoming.
Hallo: hello, informal.
Guten Morgen: good morning, formal.
Guten Tag: good afternoon, formal.
Guten Abend: good evening, formal.
After these, you may say: ,,Wie geht es?'', it is answered with ,,Gut, und du/Sie?"

Gute Nacht: good night, said when you are taking path to bed.

When Leaving
Tschüss: bye. Informal.
Auf Wiedersehen: see you, formal.

It's as simple as that.


Now, I'll bring you two sheets with the German articles and their cases
Hint: there are 4 cases and 4 persons.

I bet you were confused by this last one. Don't worry, I'll explain you these.

Personal Pronouns

ich = I

du = you(singular, informal)

er = he

sie = she

es = it
wir = we
ihr = they
Sie/sie = you(,,Sie" is a formal way to the singular "you", and ,,sie" is plural "you")
