| | Overview of the German Language to Help You Learn German |
| | These aspects of German grammar and German pronunciation are a few reasons why good German software programs or audio products can be so important. | | | In Swiss German, for example, the word "Kind" (child) is pronounced "Chind." Furthermore, in most of the Swiss German dialects, the nouns do not differentiate case inflections the way they do in High German. | | | It's easier than ever to learn German and to begin to speak German with the language resources and German language software from Transparent Language. |

| | Chapter 1: Pronunciation |
| | As the pronunciation guidelines above indicate, the pronunciation of Old French underwent some changes in the twelfth century (especially for vowels) and in the thirteenth century (especially for consonants). | | | If you are reading for someone other than yourself and/or you are serious about approaching the believed pronunciation of a given text, it is then a question of determing when the text was written, and carefully examining the pronunciation features of that period. | | | This is the sound of 'eu' in Modern French neuf or Ö in German schön. |

| | Reich: Encyclopedia topic |
| | Reich has an interesting etymology (etymology: The study of the sources and development of words) : it comes from a Germanic word for "king", which was borrowed from Celtic. | | | It is the word traditionally used for a variety of sovereign entities, including Germany (Germany: A republic in central Europe; split into East German and West Germany after World War II and reunited in 1990) in many periods of its history. | | | Führer or Heil); the word "Reich" is usually not one of them, although in certain contexts it does carry a connotation of German imperialism (imperialism: A policy of extending your rule over foreign countries) and/or strong nationalism (nationalism: The doctrine that your national culture and interests are superior to any other). |

| | Intro |
| | The most unusual part of German word-order for English speakers is that the verb comes at the end of subordinate clauses; otherwise it is located in the second grammatical position in the normal sentence much like in English. | | | In English the present participle is used to form the progressive tenses, which do not exist in German. | | | In English the indirect object (here "him") is often signaled by making it the object of the preposition to. |

| | COGNATES |
| | Note: international (mostly English) words in German (Information, Computer, Tennis), as well as German words taken directly into English (gesundheit, zeitgeist, ersatz) are not, strictly speaking, cognates. | | | Obviously there are differences in pronunciation and morphosyntax, but these are inherent in the languages, not in the lexical items themselves. | | | What I want to do in the near future is to go beyond the word level to the sentence level, and then, of course, to the paragraph level where language actually lives. |

| | The Pronunciation of Ancient Egyptian |
| | The picture of "an animal's belly with teats," this represents a softer form of kh (a voiceless palatal instead of a velar fricative), as in the German pronunciation of ich (not German dialect pronunciations as ish). | | | Since not everyone studying Egyptian, or even reading it professionally, wants to tangle with the problems of restoring its pronunciation, two convenient devices have been adopted: | | | The best evidence of the pronunciation of Late Egyptian, however, is from the documents found in the diplomatic archives of Amenhotep III and Akhenaton at Amarna, for these documents were kept in Akkadian, not in Egyptian. |

| | Syd Allan -- Beowulf: Pronunciation of Old English |
| | For the somewhat complex rules affecting the pronunciation of these letters, a grammar should be consulted. | | | The phonetic value of a letter is not always that of Modern English; it is always that of Latin and therefore often that of other modern languages (Italian, French, German). | | | Attempts to combine the two systems of scansion have often been made, and new analyses of Old English meter have recently been offered from other points of view as well. |
