hello i started learning German. i learned a lot from this video. thank you so much
in the video, there is no mention of long and short ü sounds
according to Gemini AI
The "Mühle" vs. "Müll" Test
This is the best way to hear it:
Mühle [ˈmyːlə]: The ü is long, smooth, and tense.
Müll [mʏl]: The ü is short, aggressive, and relaxed.
Mühle mill Müll trash
fühlen to feel füllen to fill
Hüte hats Hütte hut/shack
this was a copy - paste from gemini. not certain if it is accurate though.
please make a short video on this so the difference could be actually heard.
thank you very much

Is "an" another exception like "das"?
@karentogel1553Can you recommend a book or academic article of some sort that covers the same material? I'm working on a bibliography and this material is quite difficult to access freely.
@therealraphsradioI've just come across this video and you have explained the differences so well. Honestly, I have never found such a concise and easy-to-follow explanation. Thank you so much!
@maggieharrison5092Wow, vielen danke Herr Ferguson!
@shannybabayagaNice❤
@Ahmetmurat-o5wI can understand that when two consonants come before the vowel, it makes it short, like in this example word: "Gebrochen", but what about these two words "Gerochen" and "Gefochten"? The "e" is short even tho there is one consonant after it. Any idea? 🤔
@billy-cg1qqIch habe so lange Deutsch gelernt und die deutsche Sprache perfektioniert, aber mein Kind möchte nicht von mir Deutsch lernen.... also habe ich Ihren unglaublichen Kanal für sein Deutschlernen gefunden.
@sanjaykumarsinha875Vielen Dank, es war sehr nützlich für mein Kind. Ich werde meinem Kind immer mit deinem Kanal etwas beibringen, Bruder.
@sanjaykumarsinha875Danke
@sanjaykumarsinha875Are PDFs available for your slides? I would ❤ to use in our homeschool. Thanks so much!
@jenniferlathrum4968I've been playing games with a friend from Germany while also trying to learn German (not because of him) and I was telling him how difficult ü is. If it is just the sound alone, I can manage it, but then when attempting to speak an actual word, my mouth and tongue just don't want to cooperate.
@NytSong2:49 The "e" is also long in erst [eːrst], Dresden [ˈdreːsdən], den [deːn], wer [veːr], wem [veːm], wen [veːn], der [deːr], er [eːr]. However, it is short in es [ɛs], des [dɛs], wes [vɛs].
@ramamonato5039Accurate and very useful videos, Tausand Dank ❤

@klsit3528hallo, herr ferguson, I was wondering if you could cover theh topic of Relative Clauses and double use of articles like in the sentence
Ist das der Manager, der das Picknick organisiert?
thank you very much, deine videos sind sehr schon (:
Hello mr feerguson.
Does UNSER- as (our) change with cases.
I saw a sentance:
Villeicht ist ein vogel gegen unser flugzeug geflogen.
Gegen is always accusative , but unser doesnt change.
Das reiseburo hat ihnen kein zimmer reserviert.
So , i have a question. Do we have an indirect objeckt only if someone is giving something to somone. In this instance the agency hasnt reserved a room for them. I think you get the point...
Wunderbar
