What you need to do to be my intro:
Record yourself saying the following things:
"Hallo Leute! Ich bin ___ (You can say whatever you want here - name, (youtube) nickname, where you live, where you're from, why you're learning German, or anything else you'd like, one or more things. It's best if you do this part in German, too, but if you're too shy, English is fine as well - just try to keep the video to roughly 10 seconds or shorter) und ihr seht Deutsch Für Euch!"
Please don't edit your videos; if you'd like something changed (e.g. color correction), let me know in your email. I'll make sure to make you look as good as possible anyway, though ;)
I can use a lot of video formats, but your safest bets are the usual candidates: .avi, .mov, .mp4 - DON'T use .dv, please.
Once you're happy with your video, send it to me via ONE of these channels:
- attach the video to an email to dfekontakt@gmail.com
- send me a DropBox link/invite me to a folder (also dfekontakt@gmail.com)
- send me a link to a the video on UA-cam, also via mail
- please title your message "DFE Intro"
There's NO time limit for this, this will be an on-going thing as long as you send me videos.
I'm looking forward to your submissions - feel free to get creative with it! :)

First, let me be honest: I will never forget the gargling at 4:10.
Second: a few months ago I spent a few days in a hotel near (Banhof) Friedrichstraße. That is THE German word to be pronounced: once I manage to pronounce Friedrichstrasse correctly, I will pass the R-test. Tschüss!
8001maya Germany is in Europe,duhhhhh!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No, No. You only have to say, you are from Oberlausitz! My R is native! XD
ua-cam.com/video/aYOzh2Qnelo/v-deo.html
No, the real test is pronouncing Bacharach am Rhein!
Watching this with earbuds, my mom thought there was something wrong withmy throat and got me a glass of water.
:DDD
Well perfect, I'm sure you immediately practiced the water method with that! ;D
Melissa Cruz @Deutsch für Euch
Being German, I can also see how the water method works. Although, being from Bavaria, I put a bit more emphasis on the trilling...
Ah, the notorious "R" pronunciation. Just the fact that you made a 14 minute long episode about it is a testament to how difficult it really is.
I got an 85/100 in my first german exam! Your videos have something to do with that...thank you!!!
Yay! Very happy to hear that :)
This last couple of videos on pronunciation are very helpful. Thanks much, Katja!
Well, I didn't need my esophagus anyway!
Coz the oesophagus doesn't play role in speaking .
Most in-depth video on the German R I have watched so far. Danke!
It's so fun learn German, you make it ''easy'', Thank u teacher
Still the best and solidest explanation all over the whole internet. 👍
The most complete lesson I've ever seen so far. I really appreciate, this R sound has been driving me f*cking crazy.
This is a fantastic video! Thank you very much for the time and effort you put into this.
You are the best! Finally I've learned how to pronounce R! I tried hundreeds of videos on UA-cam, but you are the one who managed to explain in a best way!
Очень рад! :) That is so nice to hear, thank you!
I’ve watched a ton of videos explaining how ‘R’ is pronounced but yours is the best! Alles klar!
It's insane to me that you're a native German speaker, speaking English as a second language (although obviously you speak it constantly), and you're somehow able to do a better English and Australian accent than most American English speakers. Your brain is wired for sound! I share your sound-recreation abilities to a lesser degree and I equate it to my ear for music. You must have an insane ear for music too, amirite??
Thank you :) It's alright, but I struggle with harmonies most of the time. I have no problem with guessing my way through a melody from hearing it and have recreated a few easier songs I couldn't find sheet music for, but recreating second voices is a true pain in the ass to near impossible - it just takes me way too long. Music is definitely one of my more secondary talents; I enjoy it, but I don't have the potential to reach greatness. As you said, my ear is totally with languages. I "feel" a sound in my mouth or get a sort of mental image what my tongue should be doing once I hear it a few times (doesn't mean I don't have to practice). French is my sworn enemy on that so far, though. I have the sounds figured out, but recreating them sends my tongue into temper tantrums :D
Deutsch für Euch Unfortunately, German has several French words like der Ingenieur, der Cousin, das Restaurant etc. And most of them are pronounced with a French accent! Neeeein!!
:D That's fine, adopted words can always be "phonetically adjusted" ;D
I am planning on visiting Germany next year and to know some of the basics I just started learning the language... I would just like to thank you a lot for your videos!
Thank you so much for this video! I've only been studying German for a month but I because of your phonetics videos I fell more confident in learning German going into 2017! :D
Learning German is hard, but fun. Always feel thank you for teaching me really good lessons. Danke Schön!
Your videos are always great! Keep up the great work! Thank you :3
I have watched many videos on how to do this, but was never able to figure it out until I watched this video. You have done a great job at really explaining how to do it and I am starting to be able to do it now. Vielen Dank!!! :)
Oh wow, thank you :) That is so great to hear!
Very helpful. Thanks Katja!
your English is very fluent :D and it's really a great channel !! I just found it a couple weeks ago and I'm doing my best to catch up :)
Soft consonants = voiced (b d g)
Hard consonants = unvoiced (p t k etc)
The difference is whether the vocal cords are used or not -- try to say "p" with vocal cords and you get "b", try to say "d" without vocal cords and you get "t" . That might be easier to remember than lists of consonants.
Thanks for your channel, du bist Oberammergau! I mean oberaffengeil.
I've been having trouble with the more 'throaty' Rs, and just having you describe how its similar to the 'ch' sound was so helpful. I took Spanish for a long time so my Rs tend to trill or come from the front of my mouth when looking at foreign words (but never in English?), so 'moving' the sound to the back of my tongue for German is really challenging.
You have a wonderful love of language - contagious!
:D Ich bin gerade auf dein Video gestoßen, und ich finde es so lustig wie du versucht anderen unser geniales R zu erklären :) Mach bitte weiter so! Sehr Unterhaltsam
Thank you so much for the videos! :D I'm learning a lot!
Hello, Katja! I'm Robert!
The 2nd variety of your German would be symbolized in IPA as /ɣ/, the /gh/ guttural (voiced velar fricative) sound.
Great channel and you speak really, really good English. You have a subscriber. ; )
the best 'r' sound explanation. thankyou!
Öcsém! Ez rohadt jó!
That means I really like this cosy corner of the infinite UA-cam. Well done sister! Well done.
got used to making these noises when i studied french! language learning jackpot!
Ouh yeah ;D
I guess I never really paid much attention to the letters preceding the "r" in order to decide what pronunciation to use. It just seemed natural to me to say it in the various ways. Maybe I just heard it often enough from my teachers, movies, music, and so on. Great lesson, though. I'll be using this with my students in the fall. Thanks.
in meinem Dialekt gibt es die 2te möglichkeit das r auszusprechen irgendwie nicht. Ich mir fällt zumindest kein Wort ein, bei dem ich es so ausspreche wie sie im Video. Entweder es wird gerollt oder als a gesprochen.
Thanks, this was incredibly helpful!!
You're really amazing! Thank you so much！
I'm a new sub just found your channel and I love it I took German in middle school but then I switched to Spanish but I always enjoyed it and with the help of your vids I think I'm going to learn it finally great job!!
Awesome, thank you! :)
Great tips, similar to my German teacher.
"Vergeben vergessen und wieder vertrauen" songs help a lot too !
hello katja... thank you so much for making those videos....!
Very Nicely you are teaching..
So many THANKS!!!!
I thought I could be impossible to me but I think I did it, THANKS!
I am amazed by your voice when I heard the turbulence sound created inside your mouth. I just couldn't imagine how to reproduce that!
Fascinating, Us scottish folk also roll, or "tap" our R's and we also have the back of the throat fricative like in loch.
We also say Care Bear like germans, at least in Glasgow anyway.
The glasweigan dialect is full of weird glottal stops and dipthongs
I can do the last two r's you explained with absolutely no issues. It's the first one that keeps giving me problems. I don't think I'm putting my tongue in the right place and keep getting various sounds that just don't sound right. I either get a slight rolling or the harsher sound of the second r. And when I put my tongue super far back like you said, it sounds like a cross between a muffled r and a moan. Not really sure how to fix it...
I love learning german by u.
I am especially interested in your pronunciation videos. They helped me to realize the difference between sounds which is not taught properly by my german teacher ^^. Want to say 1000 x thanks to you ^^.
PS: I have nearly spit water out on my laptop when try your method for the first time. Anw, It's fun ^^
Wow this is the most understandable and full explanation of the R. I'm no more confused when I hear the R pronounsed in all of these ways)
Very well-explained!
I did practice the water method!!!! But I did it a little different (just a little). I took some water and tried to say de R sound. Then swallowed some water and tried again, then swallowed another little amount of water in my mouth and tried again and like that until I've got no water in my mouth. I think this way works better..
Thank you for your dedication, it is really helpful. I still sound like I'm in a phlegm releasing frenzy but I'll keep working on it.
This really helped.The German R's are so hard for the American tongue, literally. LOL. You're so fun to watch and to learn from. Danke and God bless.
+Julia Latto
Believe me the American R's are hard for German tongues too. But much harder is the th
Thank you very much for this tutorial
This is sooooooo helpful. Danke!
its awesome.... I never hard such good explanation.
als Niedersachse der auch fließend englisch spricht lern ich zwar wohl kaum was bei dir, aber ich seh trotzdem jedes deiner Videos da du echt der Hammer bist ;)
I just started to see this video to get R, and love at first sight happened, after thousands of year. And this is my first proposal after thousand's year :D
You are amazing, thank you :). You should give classes to foreigners in your country, and charge of course.
At last I can make the sound of German R, I hope so :)
Thank you, You are great teacher :)
Danke fuer Ihre Videos :) Ich lerne Deutsch in Universitaet in Australien (aber mein grammatik ist nicht perfekte und Ich moechte verbessern). Sie sind sehr hilfreich gewesen. Das stimmt ueber der Australier akzent! Ich war schon funf mal in Deutschland.
thanks very much very excited video
I learned that flippin "R" using the water method ! But doing it in 3 steps, each one with less water, until it became a natural reflex.
Hola, me encantan tus videos, saludos de México!! :)
i am from Austria (so i speak german fluently :)) but your videos still teach me something from time to time like for example grammar rules^^
Cool, I'm glad :)
Your advice do work, but it's quite hard for me to add another sound to the [x] sound, what should I do?
watching your vidios from Somalia, i wonder whether am learning deutsch or just watching you beautifal creative explaination Du bist lustig, ich liebe dich
You made a comment about not trilling or rolling your tongue when creating an "r" sound, but I've seen other assumed native German speakers do just that. Just like in the case of the "er" version of "r" is it possible some speakers adjust the textbook pronunciation of "r" for the [R] instances.
This is awesome, thanks.
Viele Grusse aus Stuttgart.
after watching/practicing this video like dozens of times, i'm finally getting the hang of it, i even learned how to roll my Rs finally! i still suck at it but i at least have the hang of it =)
I ordered die Grammatik from Duden. Can't wait until it arrives. You have no idea how hard it was to find that book. Also, I found that book you recommended to me at my library. I had no idea that they keep foreign language books, but apparently they do.
Haha, awesome! :D Could you remind me what book that was again?
Deutsch für Euch We're bin ich und wenn ja, wie wiele Richard Precht. I asked you about philosophy. Danke. You're awesome!
Oooh right, now I remember. Kein Problem :) Danke!
Thanks the video. Katja. Someone below mentioned the rolling of the R in German. I know that Bavarians and Austrians certainly do this ( albeit not as strong as the roll in the Spanish R). I think some other German speakers roll their Rs ( I saw an interview with Willy Brandt from 1964 on youtube and he gently rolled some of his Rs and he came from Luebeck). The problem is that I find that, while I can pronounce the guttural Rs exactly as you suggest while practising, when I am engaged in a long conversation or reading out a long text, I find that my throat finds it difficult to pronounce the guttural R, almost like suddenly running out of breath. For example, saying "restrukturieren" in the middle of a long conversation. Is it really so wrong to gently roll a R from time to time - is it simply a matter of regional preference, as with the A in British English? Or does a rolling of a R sound weird, unless the person has an Austrian or Bavarian accent? I would be grateful for your thoughts.
This is a complete lesson on the German r, I found everything I need to know about it.
thanks, i was confused,,,,, good video :)
thank you so much!
Very detailed but very entertaining at the same time. Thanks!
Silly anectode and questions: When I first heard how "verkehr" is pronounced, I was surprised, because I thought that would actually be how Fakir is pronounced. You know, the Hausgeräte brand. Is there actually a difference? How do you pronounce Fakir? Maybe with a bit more emphasis on "a"?
Would you say that the german r (version 1) sounds like an English R except the tongue up and back?
Very helpful!~
Hallo Deutsch für Euch :) Ich unbedeckt gerade Ihren UA-cam-Kanal! Was zu sagen: Vielen Dank für die klare, ausgezeichnete und ausführliche Erklärung. Eine große Übung schwer für einen Anfänger Italienisch wie ich! Auf geht's! :) Ich bin bereit, für Gurgeln :) Danke noch einmal! Entschuldigung für mein peinlich deutsch :) Einen Gruß von Sardinien.
I had issues with the german's "r" in the begining of my German class, i still remember one day that my throat was messed Up and i had to use a spray to cease the pain, i still was able to pronunce the "r" better than most of my classmates though XD.
Is that a panda at your right? I love it!
This video really help me, because i'm a spanish speaker and our "r" is stronger :(
Danke für alles!
Vielen dank für dieses video
Katja, how about g in the end of a syllable? sometimes i hear it pronouced like g (obviously), but sometimes.... like ch. e.g from "zwanzig" my friend said it pronouned /tsvantsich/
sorry if my grammar is wrong. i'm a non-english-speaker-who-learn-german-using-english
Vielen Dank Katja!! :) Diese Videos habe geholfen mich viel! (Correct me if I my sentence is wrong, Bitte!) haha But they have helped me a lot in my current learning of German!
Diese Videos haben mir viel geholfen. ;-)
Ah! haha I still need to work on my sentence structure..
But thank you g0nagall :)
Matteo Kennedy
you're welcome ;-)
If you want to confuse: Dialektatlas #113 - Hessisch 1/2
and thats just the difference inside of one german state !?
well done! sehr hilfreich fuer mich! nur eine Sache, we wouldn't so the letter stands after, but rather goes after, or is positioned after. Well done with your aussie accent too.
Thank you very much for this educational video. I'm learning German but unfortunately each time I try to better understand the pronounciation of "r" I get more confused. First of all, in three years of German course I didn't learn how to properly pronounce it, since the way I pronounced "Hund" and "Rund" was basically the same. Then here in Baden Württemberg people couldn't understand me trying to say "Reis" and a guy from Bayern told me to pronounce it like this really strong R, which actually hurts my throat and takes me a lot of effort to produce. Then after I trained a lot to do it, a person here from the region told me that the right way to pronounce it would be like vibrating your tongue up and down, in a much easier way to produce. Afterall, which "r" is truly Hochdeutsch? Vibrate or strong R?
I would even go as far as to say that I don't even use the right r in words like Bart, Start, Wurf, Ort and verwirrend. When I pronounce these words I sounds more like Baat, Staat, Wuaf, Oat, verwi-jend (kinda hard to put these into letters)
The voiceless velar fricative (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_velar_fricative ) ("ach-Laut"/"ach-sound") is not an "r" sound. See also
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Standard_German
Du bist der beste für mich
Haha, good thing I had a cup of water near me, neat trick!
شكرا 💐💐
i can´t stop watching your videos on a daily basis and im learnin a lot,i just started with Geramn a couple of days ago though.but how come you have a perfect american english accent? have you been to the states? thanks a lot.
Is this second R sound the same R sound that is used in French?
no this is different!
nope... maybe... -_-
Depends... The first two are used in French depending on the context (Applied mostly in the same way as in German)
This bideo show the vocalized r and the throat r's in German. In parallel to the throat R there is an r spoken with the tip of the tongue (please see de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimmhafter_alveolarer_Vibrant )
it's kinda weird to pronounce the 'R' cause I have a speech impediment with 'R's so I have trouble pronouncing it in English and so now learning german I have to get used to a new way! lol!
by the way we watch your videos in class and there are very helpful!
Hallo, du! Wohne schon einige Jahre in DE und habe immer wieder Probleme mit dem 'R'! Danke! Wo kommst du her?
ist es als Deutschlerner besser, das Uvuler zu vergessen oder) , es dann falsch aufzutragen oder gar die vordere Zungenspitze Trill aufzutragen?

I've heard of the word waltersobchakeit, and I was wondering what it meant? Also, I'm new to your channel and it's helped me a lot with my German, so thanks!
Shawn Moore "waltersobchakeit" isn't a German Word at all. Where/when did you heard it?
Schöne Lehrerin!!! Ich liebe dich!!
wunderbar, dank
Hallo, gib es auf Deutsch wie auf Englisch eine "Phonetic Chart" ? Ich habe nicht das in Leo, Pons, Dicc, ... gesehen. Danke
Danke!
Hi, ich finde dein Video super. Kannst du (oder hast du schon) ein Video nur mit Wörtern, die das genau üben machen? Es ist besonders hilfreich, wenn man die Aussprache hört und direekt danach sie wiederhohlt. Danke und Liebe Grüße
