Three-minute primer

How to pronounce German

German spelling is consistent once you know a few letter groups. Keep vowels distinct and pronounce consonant endings clearly.

1

Shape the umlaut vowels

The dots change the vowel, not the stress.

2

Read the common letter groups

These combinations occur in many useful travel words.

3

Stress the first part

Native German words often stress the first syllable; compound words keep a clear main beat.
