Ask Directions with Key Phrases

  • Learn directional words like "straight on" (geradeaus), "left" (links), and "right" (rechts) to follow or give directions.
ADVICE

Use Ordinals for Street Directions

  • Say "die erste Straße rechts" for "the first street on the right" and "die erste Straße links" for "the first street on the left".
  • Use ordinal numbers "erste, zweite, dritte" to specify street order when giving directions.
ADVICE

Use "Über die Brücke" Correctly

  • Use "über die Brücke" to say "over the bridge" when giving directions in German.
