German - I am happy


Last time we learned that the German words for horse, sheep and duck are Pferd, Schaf and Ente.

Let's learn how to say I am happy in German!

In German when you see the letters ch together, it means to make a sound like a cat hissing.

We can break it up into three words:
I - Ich - sounds like ichh /?/
am - bin - sounds like ben /?/
happy - glücklich - Sounds like gloo-k-leechh /?/

Together Ich bin glücklich sounds like ich ben gloo-k-leech
