Writing and sound
German adds ä, ö, ü and ß to the Latin alphabet, and vowel length plays an important role in pronunciation. Capitalized nouns also make the structure of a written sentence unusually visible.

German at a glance
See how German writing, pronunciation and grammar shape what you need to notice.
Grammar and usage
German marks three genders and four cases through articles, pronouns and adjective endings. The finite verb takes the second structural position in a typical main clause, while subordinate clauses commonly send it toward the end.
What to notice as a learner
Save nouns with their article and plural (der Tisch, die Tische) and verbs in sentences that expose case and word order. Split a compound into parts and read from the final noun outward.
Interesting facts
- German capitalizes every noun, not only names, so a page offers visual clues about where noun phrases begin.
- In a compound noun, the final component determines the gender: die Tür makes die Haustür feminine.
