Common phrases
Commonly used phrases are often shortened versions of a longer sentence. Or they might be leftovers from some old grammar that has otherwise fallen out of use. That means that their grammar might appear strange.
For now, just learn them like you would learn a long word.
Wie geht's?
There are many ways to ask someone how they are doing. Take "How are
you?," "How do you do?" and "How is it going?" as examples. In German,
the common phrase or idiom uses the verb gehen (go): Wie geht es dir? (How are you?).
This can be shortened to Wie geht's?.
Willkommen can be a false friend
In German, Willkommen means welcome as in "Welcome to our
home", but it does not mean welcome as in "Thank you - You're welcome".
The German for the latter is Gern geschehen (or just Gern!) or Keine Ursache.
Entschuldigung!
Sometimes, German words can be a mouthful. Later on, you will find
that you can take long words apart, and recognize the meaning from their
elements.
Here's an example:
Part |
Meaning |
ent- |
de- |
Schuld |
guilt |
-ig |
-y |
-gung |
noun suffix |
So, Entschuldigung literally means something like "deguiltification": "Take the guilt away from me" :)
