Chuck: T here are also many bars here. ” Judith: So now you can say. Chuck: GERMANPOD101.” Judith: Gebäude [natural native speed]. Chuck: “Buildings or building. You always say “est gibt. Judith: I figure you’d go for that aspect. T he first phrase is “es gibt [natural native speed]. I still remember the “Kein Bier vor vier” rule. viele… Chuck: “Much. I’m afraid though that our listener’s vocabulary is not good enough to learn more about Dusseldorf from Michaela at this point. Chuck: “Many.” Chuck: T here is or there are.” Judith: Das [natural native speed].” T he next word is viele [natural native speed].” Judith: Schön [natural native speed]. it is called the longest beer counter in the world. Chuck: “T his or that.” Judith: Schön [natural native speed].Judith: I’d like to say more about the sights of Dusseldorf.” Judith: Gebäude [natural native speed]. that is.COM BEGI NNER #3 .” Chuck: “T here are many buildings. you will encounter more and more well-known words in the dialogues.” Judith: T here are actually two words. Judith: Chuck. It’s really a city worth seeing.” Chuck: “T his or that.broken down by syllable].” Judith: And viele.” Judith: Das [natural native speed].” Judith: Note that there’s no difference in German. Judith: Good. Chuck: “Buildings or building. Judith: T his lesson again featured quite a few unknown words along with some known ones. just kidding. schöne gebäude. Chuck: “Nice or pretty. As you go on. have you been drinking before the show? Chuck: No. Chuck: Well.T HE OLDT OWN 3 . Chuck: “T here is or there are.” Judith: Many nice buildings. Chuck: Particularly the Altstadt. and the beer is really excellent. VOCAB LIST Chuck: So let’s improve our vocabulary. Now we have “das [natural native speed]. the old town where there’s many bars. Judith: Es gibt [slowly . Chuck: “Many. no beer before 4:00 PM. Chuck. “Es gibt viele schöne gebäude. Chuck: “Nice or pretty. it’s definitely recent. It means “house. I’m very interested in history. European thinks that 100 miles is a long way. Chuck: In the extreme western part of Germany. Judith: But Germanic tribes on the other side of Rhine resisted too fiercely. are we? Judith: Of course. Europe’s largest Roman re-enactment festival takes place there and the entire part is populated with actress and hobbyists showing you all parts of Roman life. T he whole sense of history is different. Every two years.” Chuck: T his one’s really easy. Chuck: So in the left side of the Rhine. Chuck: Well. because in the States. has a really great archeological park where they dug up and reconstruct the large parts of the Roman colony there. Chuck: You know I hate history. Chuck: So even if you hate history like me. the old towns. a rather small town that’s not very remarkable otherwise. GERMANPOD101. A hundred years. Judith: I love history. It is “haus. So what’s the difference between American and the European? Judith: I don’t know. we are. Chuck: “Old town. and if you’re like me. especially with the area along the Upper Rhine that’s known for its castles. Chuck: We’re not going to get into history now. Now we have a question word. and here that would be considered pretty recent. too. I do have to say there are many cities in Germany with nice historical towns. Judith: Xanten.” Judith: T he following word is really easy. Chuck: “Old town. It is H-A-U-S in German. Judith: T hat’s very true. or watch gladiator fights that have not been choreographed. but this building is a bit different.” Judith: Altstadt [natural native speed]. something might be called old if it’s 200 years old. at least.COM BEGI NNER #3 .” Chuck: “What?” Judith: “Was? [natural native speed]. they built many camps and fortifications. because “alt” means “old” and “stadt” means “town. Judith: Yeah. Haus. T he Rhine was a natural boarder to their empire.T HE OLDT OWN 4 .” Now let’s talk abou the altstadt. “Was? [natural native speed].” Judith: Haus. I love history. you can still learn how to shoot a catapult. and it’s quite shrinking when compared to American cities. the western part of Germany should be particularly interesting for you because that is where the Frankish Empire with those Medieval castles stretched. Some German cities can be traced as far back as 500 before Christ. see legions exercising. Chuck: Well.“T hat. Chuck: I think they got it already. and the American thinks that 100 years is a long time. the last word for today is Altstadt [natural native speed]. you will also find Roman ruins.” Judith: T his literally means “old town”. Chuck: “What?” Judith: “Was” means “what?” And finally. Chuck: Female. Germany is that place to be if you like history or also beauty because most cities and most houses are designed with beauty in mind. Judith: I’m sorry. Roman hair-dos or Roman fashion and food. Chuck: Neutral. and every city tries to out-do the other in terms of museums. never try to order a Cologne beer in a Dusseldorf pub. and this starts with the altstadt. et cetera. Judith: Whatever the reason.Judith: You can even learn about subjects that would never come up at school. Judith: Really. I guess. and so on and so on. Chuck: Yeah. the barbarian life. Judith: Yeah. T here are also plenty of museums. except for joining the World Cup.T HE OLDT OWN 5 . amusement parks. the industrial revolution. everything has a grammatical gender in German. I didn’t invent them. not plain functionality. people find it easier to associate with Germany’s earlier history. clubs. spas.COM BEGI NNER #3 . theaters. But this German interest in early history has always amazed me. T hey really have a lot of choices when deciding where they go. For example. I’d say there are parts or re-enactment festivals dedicated to any part of German history before 1900. Judith: T his particularly applies to Dusseldorf and Cologne. Chuck: So other than the World Cup. this rivalry is great for the people living there. Judith: And neuter. Of course. We have to confront you with a grammar topic that is unavoidable in German. a computer is masculine in German but a keyboard is feminine. for example. we don’t have a choice. Chuck: But most of the time. LESSON FOCUS Judith: T he first thing you need to know is that German divides everything into three genders: masculine… Chuck: Male. Maybe it’s because Germans have trouble identifying with Germany as a modern country given its past. the Romans. Judith: Now. GERMANPOD101. Chuck: For example. parks. Chuck: Yeah. word genders. the war against Napoleon. Judith: T here’s probably less patriotism here than any other country of the world. Chuck: Can you keep those away from me? Judith: I’m really sorry. of course. and the like. not just people or pets. then there’s a rivalry between them. Judith: …feminine. the Frankish empire. Chuck: When there several big cities close to each other like in the Ruhrgebiet metropolitan area. Chuck: No! I hate those things. however. medieval crafts and trades. theaters. Chuck: All right. I will try to help you learn them though. so altstadt is feminine too. Chuck: I wrote the words I learned in the past.” Judith: For compound words like altstadt.” Judith: Die entschuldigung. das ist die Altstadt. Chuck: T hanks for the tip. In this case. Make the situation funny or weird and you’ll have note to remembering it.” Judith: Der Rhine Chuck: And it keeps getting harder. I believe we have taught enough for this time. do you use it. and neuter words get the article “das”. Hier gibt es auch viele bars.” Judith: Das gebäude. Masculine words get the article “der”. John. “the house. T here’s not much left the study in this lesson? I can go and enjoy beer at that bar with that bikini that’s lying on the bar counter. Michaela: Ja. Anyway.” Judith: Die bar. Chuck: So I’m curious how the story will turn out. For example. Chuck: A great way to learn the gender is if you imagine some male or female or neutral archetypes or stars along with word. “T he bar. Chuck: It’s another toughie. John: Und was ist das? Michaela: Das ist der rhein dort drüben. Is Michaela single? And how good of a friend is this John? Judith: We don’t know. Let’s just listen to the dialogue again.T HE OLDT OWN 6 . wir sind da. Judith: I’ll give you the agendas now and you’ll see if you used to remember the meaning. the translation of the word “the” changes depending on the gender of the noun. Chuck: In the meantime. I guess we’ll have to wait till next week to find out. T he gender of a noun will always be mentioned in the vocabulary list. I’ll be using the learning center to brush up my vocabulary GERMANPOD101. Chuck: “T he old town. to remember that bar in Germany is feminine. Das ist mein haus. Chuck: “T he apology. feminine words get the article “die”. it doesn’t make sense. Judith: If it works. Das auto. T hat one means.” Judith: Das haus. Chuck: “T he building. this will be “the rhine. Just look at the noun that is the last part of it. the last part is “stadt” which is feminine. so you will have to learn the gender along with the noun. T hat will reduce the amount of time I need to spend studying and that could give me more time to party. Don’t laugh! It works. Chuck: “T he car. Chuck: I think I get this one. it’s particularly easy to determine the gender. Judith: Actually. John: Es gibt viele schöne gebäude hier.COM BEGI NNER #3 .Can you believe it? Judith: Most of the time.” Judith: Die altstadt. T hat noun determines the agenda of the whole word. you might imagine a bikini model lying in a bar counter. Chuck: See you soon! Judith: Bis bald! GERMANPOD101.T HE OLDT OWN 7 .COM BEGI NNER #3 .and to listen again to the dialogues.com. You should do the same. Judith: Awesome! T hank you for listening to GermanPod101.
