Can't you just learn words and phrases and be done with it? NO. I mean...yes, but don't you want to sound like a German? In this introduction, I show you the difference between sounding like an American speaking German and sounding like a German.[/stm_course_lesson][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_film-play" badge="preview" title="Consonants" meta="05:54"]In this lecture, you'll learn how to pronounce some of the most famous German consonants. If you can pronounce these right, you get a high five. Through the computer.[/stm_course_lesson][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_film-play" badge="preview" title="Vowels" meta="05:54"]German has some pretty interesting sounds, and it's important to know how to pronounce vowels. Why? Because they're everywhere! Knowing how to pronounce German vowels will help you learn faster and sound like German.[/stm_course_lesson][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_film-play" badge="preview" title="Special Characters" meta="05:54"]German uses the same alphabet as English. Or does it? Here I'll introduce you to three special additions to the alphabet and when they're used. But don't worry--this stuff is easy compared to Chinese![/stm_course_lesson][/stm_course_lessons][stm_course_lessons title="Section 2: Articles"][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_film-play" badge="preview" title="Cases" meta="05:54"]"Gosh, can't I just start learning German phrases already?" Patience, young one. Knowing cases will make learning German soooo much easier. Here I teach you how to know a noun's case, which will help you construct your own sentences, phrases, and skyscrapers (I can't guarantee that last one).[/stm_course_lesson][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_film-play" badge="preview" title="Genders" meta="05:54"]German nouns have genders. Crazy, right?! That doesn't mean that clock on the wall will be your next date, but knowing a noun's gender will help you put words together and impress real-life dates. It's been known to happen.[/stm_course_lesson][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_film-play" badge="preview" title="Articles" meta="05:54"]What do you get when you put cases and genders together? Articles! Or at least that's what they're used for. Articles are words like "a" and "the", and German articles aren't quite as easygoing as English articles. But ne'er fear--this lecture will teach you how to make sense of articles without getting bogged down in the details.[/stm_course_lesson][/stm_course_lessons][stm_course_lessons title="Section 3: Conclusion"][stm_course_lesson icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_certificate" badge="quiz" title="Conclusion" meta="45:23" meta_icon="fa-icon-stm_icon_doc_edit"]You made it! I couldn't be more proud. Here we review what you've learned, and I provide some tools that will help you continue learning. Keep up the good work, and you'll be speaking like a native in no time![/stm_course_lesson][/stm_course_lessons][/vc_column][/vc_row]
