Tighten your mouth while speaking. Learning German won’t work if you don’t pronounce it correctly. Remember that Germans put a lot of pressure on their cheeks when they speak. To sound like a German, you need to keep your mouth shut.
- When you open your mouth, your mouth looks like a big “o” or a small “u”. [1] X Research Source
- Try looking for German pronunciation videos to learn how to keep your mouth shut while speaking. Some consonants and vowels in German are also pronounced differently from Vietnamese.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/21/Count-to-10-in-German-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Count- to-10-in-German-Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/21/Count-to-10-in- German-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Count-to-10-in-German-Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Learn how to pronounce German vowels. Although German has similarities with Vietnamese, some vowels are spoken differently. This is very important when you practice counting in German. [2] X Research Source
- In German, the diphthong “ei” is pronounced “ai.” For example, the German word “drei” means three. However, the word is pronounced “drai”. Likewise, the German word “frei” means freedom. This word is pronounced “frai”.
- The opposite applies to the diphthong “ie”. This vowel is pronounced like “i”. Hence the diphthong in the word “vier” (four) is pronounced as “i”.
- The diphthong “eu” is pronounced “oy” in German.
- If you see two dots on a vowel, you need to pronounce it differently. [3] X Research Source The word “year” in German has two dots: fünf. The ü sound is pronounced like “i” but with rounded lips.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b5/Count-to-10-in-German-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Count- to-10-in-German-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b5/Count-to-10-in- German-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Count-to-10-in-German-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Learn how to pronounce German consonants. One of the important differences between German and Vietnamese pronunciation is the consonants. Some consonants will be pronounced similarly to Vietnamese, but others will not.
- The consonant “v” is pronounced as “f”. So you should pronounce “f” instead of “v” when pronouncing the German word four. [4] X Research Sources
- In German, the consonant “s” is pronounced “z” at the beginning of a word, like “sieben” (the number seven in German).
- When there is an “r” at the end of a word, make it sound “uh”. The letter “r” is also pronounced very softly in the middle of a word. Place your tongue on the roof of your mouth when pronouncing this consonant. [5] X Research Sources
- So the German number four “vier” is pronounced “fia.” When the consonant “z” starts a word, pronounce it as “ts”.

Learn how to count numbers greater than 10 in German. If you’ve mastered basic German pronunciation and how to count greater than 10, you should try counting higher! This is quite easy.
- Add the word “zehn” after each number starting from 13-19. For example, 19 is “neunzehn” and 18 is “achtzehn”, etc. Eleven is pronounced “elf” and 12 is “zwölf”. [6] X Research Source
- Twenty is “zwanzig”. To count numbers greater than 20, start with 1-10, then add the word “und” followed by “zwanzig”. Thus, the number 21 is “einundzwanzig”, which literally means “1 and 20” (“s” in “eins” are omitted). Similarly, the number 22 is “zweiundzwanzig”. And so on until number 29.
- Follow the same procedure until the number 100. However, instead of zwanzig, add the word 30 (“dreißig” – ß is “ss” in German and pronounced like “s” in Vietnamese), 40 (” vierzig” – pronounced “fiahtsig’), 50 (“funfzig”), 60 (“sechzig”), 70 (“siebzig”), 80 (“achtzig”), and 90 (“neunzig”). German is “(ein)hundert” (the “d” sound is pronounced “t” and the “u” sound is pronounced “uu”).
