Lesson 13

GEOGRAPHIE (2)

I am crazy over cars now and I love revising this Chapter, the second Chapter of my German textbook. Proof: This lesson is taught in German classes and in the text book too, I am not drifting away from the language, German. In Weisseuropa, alphabets are placed beside car plates to differentiate the cars from different countries.

Deutschland - D
Frankreich - F
österreich - A
die Schweiz - CH
Belgien - B
Tschechische Republik (Czech Republic) - CZ
Slowak. Rep. - SK

I didn't translate the countries' names except for Czech but you should be able to understand them. They's rather similar to English. If you don't understand, you can use online translation or ask me directly. :)

Extra info: The German language was once the lingua franca of central, eastern and northern Europe. Within the European Union, German is the language with the most native speakers, with more than English, French, Spanish and Italian. As a foreign language, German is the third most taught worldwide. It is also the second most used language on the Internet. The language has its origin in Old High German. There are numerous dialects of German, many of which are not intelligible to speakers of standard German or a different dialect. Some consider Low German to be a different language from German; Low German has been given the status of a minority language by the European Union, although it is less used today in the traditionally Low German-speaking areas of northern Germany.

Repeat after me!

"Deutschland ist ein sehr schönes Land."
