Wilkommen

Germany is Europe's most industrialized and populous country. Famed for its technological achievements, it has also produced some of Europe's most celebrated composers, philosophers and poets. Achieving national unity later than other European nations, Germany quickly caught up economically and militarily, before defeats in World War I and II left the country shattered, facing the difficult legacy of Nazism, and divided between Europe's Cold War blocs. Germany rebounded to become the continent's economic giant, and a prime mover of European cooperation. With the end of the Cold War, the two parts of the country were once again united, although the economy of the former east continues to lag behind that of the former west.

Hallo guys, today I would like to talk about the German automotive industry. Germany is well known for their dominance in the automotive industry as they are the leading auto producer in Europe since the 1960s. Germany is considered the birthplace of automobile, as motor-car pioneers Karl Benz and Nikolaus Otto independently developed four-stroke internal combustion engines in the late 1870s and then fitted it in a coach thus creating a design which would lead to the modern day automobiles. Germans are also famous for their "big three" which refers to the German trio Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz and BMW. These companies are famous for their cars as they have a rich history spanning from the early 1900s and their cars make up 86% of the luxury midsize market. Germany is also the leading exporters of automobiles with 23% market shares.  If you want to know more about the history behind theses companies please do refer to our sub-page about it .

Verbs in german

Hallo guys, today I would like to tell you guys about verbs in the german language. German is not an easy language to master and to be a fluent speaker would require mastering the verbs. Verbs in German are a bit different to the English language as each verb has an infinitive "to" form. These verbs are what you would find commonly used. For example, in english we say "to play" but in german we wouldn't say "zu spielen" but just "spielen". This is because each verb also has a stem form, the basic part of the verb left after you remove the -en ending. The end part ( e.g. -en, n,) plays a part in how the word would be interpreted. Weird right? Thankfully I've created a guide on how to use verbs in german which you can find here .  I hope all of you guys reading this would have more understanding on the german language by learning about verbs. Do comment in the comment section about verbs ( Also correct me if I'm wrong!!).
