Help find a lost passport
Oh nein, ich habe meinen Pass verloren! | Oh no, I lost my passport! |
Warum verlierst du immer deine Sachen? | Why do you always lose your things? |
Komm, sei nicht gemein, lass uns den Pass zusammen suchen. | Come on, don't be mean, let's look for the passport together. |
Ich gebe auf, ich kann den Pass nicht finden. | I am giving up, I can't find the passport. |
Wir können noch oben suchen. | We can still look upstairs. |
Dein Pass war in der Schublade. | Your passport was in the drawer. |
I’m already pretty tired...
An umlaut can make quite a difference! The word schon means "already", but schön means "pretty"!
Ich schlafe schon.
|I am already sleeping. | |
Der Ring ist schön. | The ring is pretty. |
Practice the difference so you don’t say the wrong word!
- schon: as in “home”
- schön: similar to “hurt”
For the ö sound, try saying a (as in father), then round your lips like you’re drinking from a straw!
