Why learn German slang first? We can’t all put in the time it takes to get 100% fluent in a new language. Many of us must set more realistic expectations, like learning enough to get around on a trip, or just enough to be conversational with your German friends, or in this case just 3 amazing words that will make people think you are fluent (for about 5 minutes). If you are up for a bigger challenge try the 1000 most frequently used words in German list.

Our veteran German instructor Emmanuel shares the 3 most useful words in German.

This is a really fun trick.

These three phrases are used colloquially, usually by native Germans (not your new typical German 1 student). By the way we like to teach this stuff right away in our private and group classes even though you wont find these expressions in a text-book. These colloquial expressions mean things like, “OK,” “Cool,” “Nice” but they also have NSFW meanings.

So this is why it works. When someone is speaking to you in German you can just agree and make comments when the person finishes a sentence. …Cool! …Sure! ….Riiight… …Ok… …I agree… all in perfect German slang.

Then, after some time, be prepared to say:

“Mein Deutsch ist nicht sehr gut”

Geil is one of these words in German that you absolutely need to master if you want to talk like a native. Yes, it is rather informal but it is widely used among young people all over Germany and in most of the cases, geil simply means awesome/cool/great rather than referring to its other, somehow derogative meanings.

This is perhaps the most common word in German – foriegn origin, of course. You will hear this a lot when people chat in German.

This is the part that transfers the movement of the engine to the front wheels and allows them to turn when we move the steering wheel.

The rubber hood and spheres are located in the internal part of the rim, in the direct connection with the wheel hub.

The end of the axle is just like the rest of the components in a vehicle, it wears out over time and is eventually replaced with a new one. It is in constant contact with dust, dirt, and excessive vibrations that influences its condition.

The number of spheres in the gasket is the most effective way to detect that the piece is in a bad state, because it is the number of clicks that range from one to six.

The reason we don't notice this when we turn the steering wheel is because these only work when you make a left or right turn. If we notice that the noise comes from the right tire, it is because the problem is on the left tire.

How many kilometers do you change the oil on your car?

Grease inside the tire is an indication that it is necessary to replace the rubber hood.

The vibrations feel hollow when the tip of the axle is not meshed to the rim. The initial extension has been shortened due to wear and will begin to reduce.

There is damage to the tip of the shaft that can be prevented, which could lead to a quicker replacement.

It is best to avoid bumpy roads and potholes because the high vibrations on the road cause it to degrade faster than usual.
