    Day 1: The verb sein and the German number trick
    1 Jan 2026

    Day One German takes you from absolute zero to being ready for our daily news podcast, LinguaWire A1 Daily German News, in four weeks. Twenty episodes, five minutes a day, with Felix and Leonie. In episode one you learn the verb sein (I am, he is, she is), the word der Präsident, and the wonderful, slightly mad way German builds its numbers. By the end you'll understand and say a real German news sentence: Der neue Präsident ist 62 Jahre alt.

    Day 2: The verb haben — and why nouns wear capitals
    1 Jan 2026

    Episode two of Day One German, with Felix and Leonie. Today you learn the verb haben (to have), and with it, the ending pattern that runs nearly every German verb, plus the chancellor, the family, and the quirk you can see: every German noun wears a capital letter. Today's real news sentence: Die Kanzlerin hat zwei Kinder und wohnt in der Hauptstadt.
