Learn German with GermanPod101.com! You are in Germany vacationing and visiting friends. In fact, one of your friends is graduating from the German university and they have invited you to come and watch them walk across the stage. The only problem is that your suitcase was lost in transition and you still haven’t gotten it back, so now you have nothing appropriate for the formal ceremony. It’s time to go shopping in Germany! You find a cute German boutique that carries just your style of dress. As you walk into the boutique, a German sales associate approaches you and asks to assist you. You reply in German, “I am just looking.” The German associate walks off, but returns a moment later with two dresses, replying in German, “These would suit you well.” You hesitate because the dresses are not what you are looking for, but maybe the sales associate was just trying to be nice, so you take them. Finally finding a dress, you search for a dressing room, but while you are in there, she hands you two more dresses to try on! You thought salespeople back home were pushy! Wow.

Sitting down with friends for a traditional German New Year’s Eve celebration, there are more than a few things that you won’t recognize. For example, did you hear of the tradition of Bleigießen (lead-pouring)? This German custom goes back all the way to the Romans, more than 2000 years ago! Today Sarah, our new team member, will talk about what happened during her New Year celebrations and the ups and downs of this German tradition. It’s hilarious, so tune in! You can’t have too much German input. No matter what stage you’re at in learning German, GermanPod101’s audio blogs can help you improve. The most advanced learners may want to make it a listening comprehension or transcription exercise. Others should probably use the German transcript and English translation to get a better understanding before or while they listen. Both transcript and translation can be found in the lesson’s PDF.
