1. Okay, the
first German word and tip is for lung. In German it's Lunge. A tip for this
word is take away the e and you have the English word.
2. Niere is
our second word. You probably would never guess the word, it's kidney. A
tip to remember this word is there are two kidneys and there are two e's
is Niere.
3. Liver, Leber.
That's our next word, liver. An easy way to remeber Leber is to subsitute
the first e for an i anda v for the b.
4. Herz is our
fourth word. Guess what it is. It means heart. They are almost the same.
A cool tip to remember this word is her heart. Use the Her is in Herz to
remember her heart.
5. Brains, brains,
brains! Thats our fifth word. Gehirn is German for brain. Once upon a time
in Germany there was really angry brain and once he yelled Gehirn.
6. What's red
and is in your body? BLOOD! Blut is German. Remember 'Bl' is in Blut and
blood!
7. Lips rule!
And that's our next word, Lippe! It is almost the same word as English too.
Remember it by Lippe and Lip, subtract the 'pe' and you have the English
word.
8. Zahnfleisch
is our next word which means gums, like the ones above your teeth. Fleisch
is kind of like flesh and think Zahn means tooth so its like tooth flesh.
9. Kopf is our
last word and it means head. Remember it by this story. There was a Kopf
who had no heads. So he moved to Germany where his name meant head and he
lived happily ever after.
Those are our
tips and we hope you have learned some new words in German.
