Ever had to deal with an overzealous market salesman? Better know what he’s trying to sell you in German! Today Lena is buying fruit in preparation for the fruit salad and that means LOTS of useful German shopping vocabulary. We are also having another look at German noun plurals.

Learn German with GermanPod101.com! You’ve been waiting in line to rent a car for almost a quarter of an hour, when you overhear a conversation in German behind you. “I hate bad drivers! Sometimes I could just kill them!” says one. The speaker’s companion replies, “Kill? You’re exaggerating, aren’t you?” The first speaker says, “I hate people who can’t drive! It seems to me that if you can’t drive, then you should stay off the street!” You gulp nervously. You’ve heard all about German drivers-apparently they drive really fast on that Autobahn! And now it appears they’re really impatient as well. You continue to listen. “The problem is that these people don’t know they can’t drive,” says the one speaker. “Haha, that’s true,” replies the other. “They think they are really great!” You exit the line, thinking that maybe you’ll just take the bus.

Learn German with GermanPod101.com! You’ve stopped at a Turkish restaurant in Germany with your German friend. Your friend orders a something called a doner, but you’re in the mood for something different. “Which dish are you going to order?” your friend asks in German. After looking over the menu, you reply in German, “I’ll have a vegetarian Turkish pizza.” “You know that Turkish pizza is never completely vegetarian, don’t you?” your friend notes in German. “What?” you exclaim. “Why is it called that then?” Your friend replies that while the toppings are all vegetarian, Turkish pizza always has meat sauce. “Oh, okay,” you say. “Well, I’ll have it anyway, since I’m not a vegetarian.” But you wonder…how many vegetarians have ordered Turkish pizza, blissfully unaware that they’re about to eat meat?
Learning German with GermanPod101.com is the most fun and effective way to learn German! This German lesson teaches you how to use the German form of “which,” as in “Which bus should we take?” We’ll also talk a bit about Turkish food (where “vegetarian” doesn’t always mean what we think it does) and about vegetarianism in Germany.
