I love songwriting. Here are a few of my titles that didn’t quite make it.

                   “Bummer of a birthmark, Hal.”

 

Can you name these titles

and the groups/people who sang them?

On the good ship Lolly Bang

Monte Carlo or Bosom

I did it any old way or I did it anyway

Careless shouts

Like A Rolling Bone

I Can’t Get No Liquefaction

Animals:

Eating like…!

Essen and fressen both mean to eat, but they’re not the same!

Fressen is for animals, so using fressen with a person shows you think they eat like an animal.

Der Hund frisst Brot.

​ The dog eats bread. ​

Der Mann isst Brot.

​ The man eats bread. ​

Der Mann frisst Brot.

​ The man eats bread (like an animal).​

Frankenwords

German is famous for long words! You can make these words by putting nouns together, like how Frankenstein put his monster together!

das Haus das Tier	das Haustier
die Orange der Saft	der Orangensaft

The gender is always whatever gender the last word in the combo‑word is!

Pfft

Let’s look at some more German sounds!

Pferd, Apfel as in “capful”

Vogel, verstehen as in “fun”

Wasser, Wein as in “van”.
