this video i recommend for the next five minutes you just follow my lead and repeat after me starting right now ah ah v apple a like apple ah b b d this is the language is it's not the country e e v elephant e now let's repeat the first five letters ah b c k ha yucca and again we repeat f key e yacht we move on to ka ka vi cafe ka el o i will come back to this one later s s v let's repeat the last five p uh x not many words
starting with x so yeah lexicon upsilon upsilon v yoga and now the last six again and here is the first one estet as said it might look like b but it is a special kind of s we have another name for it shafus s sharp s the next three characters are special vowels they have two dots on top of them and there's a name for this it's called umlaut you can make use of this word and i'll show you how this is kind of hard to pronounce so make it easy for yourself and just say
ah umlaut loud so now let's repeat those four special characters esc now i try to help you with the difficult ones a lot of students they struggle to find the difference between e and e if you pronounce e you can try this it looks stupid but try it e you stretch your mouth a bit it makes it easier to produce this sound the other one this one here e here is a bit like down e let's talk about air this one might be the most difficult one for a lot of students there are different ways
to pronounce this letter you can pronounce it like ah air pretty soft there's nothing happening here that's what i normally do for this video i forced myself to make it more to make it a bit stronger like so this is what you also can do this sound is produced here is not produced with your tongue so the next two i want to talk about they are actually not difficult they are just often mixed up so this one is fou and this one is v v you can remember this a bit easier if you just keep
in mind there is some kind of car brand which we have in germany we are talking about spelling so much but maybe you still don't know how to ask someone to spell a word for you so here you go here's the question you need we schreibtman so this is the easier version how do you write this word there's a more difficult one too which is that's it for the alphabet today please let me know in the comments which letter is the most difficult one for you and if you want to know more about special pronunciation
