Improve German Pronunciation with Minimal Pairs

Minimal pairs are two words in a language that differ in only one phonological element. These words are used to show that a difference in the pronunciation of a word has an impact on the meaning of the words and therefore is a linguistically significant difference. In this video I use a few of these pairs in German and use them to help you practice the small subtle differences in pronunciation that can often lead to miscommunications.

Super gutes Training für die Aussprache. 👍Werde ich meinen Schülern als Hausaufgabe aufgeben 😁 Mir fallen spontan noch ein paar Beispiele ein: fällen vs. fehlen, Pollen vs. Polen, weg vs. Weg. Und das Verb holen vs. Höhlen wäre glaube ich auch ein Minimalpaar.

This pronunciation lesson would be more helpful if it focused solely on pronunciation and did not attempt to be funny.

Barbier ist eine alte Berufsbezeichnung, ich denke das Wort benutzt heutzutage niemand mehr. Man sagt Friseur.
