wrong forum, but useful information.

[Mr.Kylee]

Yep and the numbers are easy.

To ten are like you've written then it just adds zehn

example;


dreizehn
vierzehn

you gota be careful with 12 it's zwolf and with 16,17. 6 is sechs but 16 is sechzehn with s at sechs. 7 is sieben but 17 is siebzehn without en.

Then at like 20,30,40,50+ you just add zig at the end

example;

zwanzig
vierzig
funfzig

be careful with 30 thought it's dreißig.

when it's like 21, 22 you just write first number thats on second place

example;
21- einundzwanzig

you first write last number add und and write first number and finish with zig

Basic phrases

You said Wie gehts.

You could also say Wie geth es Ihnen or Wie geht es dir.

You could add how to form question for name, address etc.

really easy.

It's Wie ist Ihr/du Vorname?

or Wie ist Ihr/du Familiennamme.


if you'd like to ask where is she from you'd say Woher kommt ''Kyle'' and anwser as Er kommt aus Italy.

I'll add this, for different persons

Singular
1. person// Ich
2. person// Du
3. person// Him // Er
Her// Sie
It// Es

Plural

1. person// Wir

2. person// Ihr

3. person// Sie

^^

that helps with forming sentences. For example;

Das ist Kyle. Er ist 17 Jahre alt ^_^
