Learn Perfect German Vowel Pronunciation Now - Beginner German with Herr Antrim Lesson #1.1

Want to speak German with confidence? It all starts with mastering the vowels! This beginner-friendly video (perfect for A1 German learners) is your one-stop shop for understanding German vowel sounds.

We'll break down the difference between short and long sounds, untangle tricky vowel combinations, and even show you how to force a long vowel sound, no matter what the situation. Forget memorizing the alphabet – this practical guide focuses on the sounds you actually need to know to speak German naturally.

By the end of this lesson, you'll be able to pronounce all the German vowels (A, E, I, O, U) with both short and long sounds. We'll also explain diphthongs (those vowel combos) and demystify umlauts (those two little dots above the vowels). Plus, we'll share some handy tips and tricks to help you master even the most challenging sounds.

I have extended family in Germany, and I suddenly feel like learning German. Not sure where to start so here I am. Thank you for your content!

[iuliastroe]

You are definitely an extraordinary teacher! With you, everything is easier. Thank you very much!

[pyeh]

Danke. Been visited more than 10 popular channels teaching German to English spoken people, no one explains more clearer or easier than you did in 10 minutes. Wish to come to your channel earlier but glad that I did.

[gracetraver]

Thank you so much for this lesson! I'm learning both English and German at the same time.

[sahragardacademy]

You explained the sounds very well. Many thanks🙏🙏

[leokeo]

This is the most helpful video on the vowel I've come across yet

[aqiloxnetwork]

I am a going to the high school he teaches at and taking his class

[shibolinemress]

This takes me right back to my 6th grade German class! We laughed ourselves silly practicing ä, ö and ü! After living in Germany since 1985 it's become second nature, but thanks so much for the memories!

PS: I wish I'd had you for my first German teacher!

I'm currently learning german, and french both are such a wonderful language to learn.

[mehranzeenavand]

It's what I've been looking for, Thank you

I love this incredibly fast and comprehensive look at the vowels, at the same time if this would be the first or one of the first videos I watched as an A1, I might go running for the hills :)

[laurewinkelmans]

This is unrelated to the subject of learning German, but I really like yoir voice. It's very calming. I think it's a bonus as a teacher.

That's a very nice video! The A sound in "an" is short, though. Also, the long E sound is different from the Ä sound, e.g. spät – ä is pronounced ɛː vs. Weg – long e is pronounced eː. Also, the short E sounds in "essen" are two different sounds: the first one is ɛ, which is exactly the same as the short Ä sound. The second one is the schwa ə, which is, however, not pronounced in this word. In actuality, you can hear only one E sound (that is the first one – ɛ) in this word.

One of those words reminds me of the first full sentence my boyfriend said to me: "Leg dein Bein hier auf. Bitte." I was utterly confused. I thought 'leg' meant my leg; I had an Atypisch infektion in my ankle and he was helping me with aftercare. The only way I could understand him was to watch what he pointed at. I was really sick too so I might not even have been able to understand English. But he's not fluent in English. He learned it in school but was never allowed to speak it at home. His sister told me their dad hates that the German school system decided English was going to be mandatory and he made a rule that you can't speak English in his house. His dad is 73 and was personally affected by WWII. I mean, something happened to his mother & twin sister.
My daughter's godfather is a Vietnam Veteran. He said wars are no matter to be taken lightly because the results affect people for decades. I had no idea what he meant until I met Gustav.

My initial observation, being that language creates music, art and culture is that Waltz time informs of our the German values. If the measure has two quarter notes, (consonants) then, there is only room for one more, equal quarter note. If the measure has only one quarter note then there is time for a half note (long vowel). Being that Waltz time was created by Germans, this is a perfect analog. 3/4 Vc or vcc

[waasnoode]

So much easier to hear the subtleties in these videos. Miene Freunde ist deutsche and he speaks so quickly I never hear what he's saying and then he gets irritated when I can't pick it up 😂

Danke 😊

[bernhardstork]

Super Aussprache, hätte da nur eine Korrektur: an = kurzes a (wie ab, am); Ahn = langes a


'am', 'an', 'ab', 'in', 'im', 'um' > short vowels

[BigSam]

Thank you man you helped me. Talked german

[gilyashar]

Sehr stylische Krawatte! Ich liebe es! Fabelhaft!
