Socializing!

Here are some more useful expressions you can use when socializing with Germans.
German |
English |
| Wie geht es dir? (casual) | How are you? |
| Wie geht es Ihnen? (formal) | How are you? |
| Mir geht es gut | I’m well. |
| Mir geht es nicht so gut | I’m not so well. |
| Alles in Ordnung? | Everything alright? |
| Ich möchte gerne… | I would like to |
| Ich möchte so gerne | I would love to |
| Gerne | Certainly |
| Du siehst toll aus! | You look great! |
| Kann ich helfen? | Can I help? |
| Möchtest du… (casual) | Would you like… |
| Möchten Sie… (formal) | Would you like… |
| Das ist sehr nett | That is very nice |
| Das ist sehr freundlich | That is very kind |
| Das gefällt mir sehr gut | I like that very much |
| Das macht Spaß | That’s fun |
| Das macht keinen Spaß | That’s no fun |
| Bitte | Please |
| Danke | Thanks |
| Vielen Dank | Thank you very much |
| Danke schön | Thanks a lot |
| Nichts zu danken | You’re welcome |
Like or Love?
If you want to express that you are fond of someone you can say
Ich mag dich. |
I like you. |
You could also say
Ich habe dich lieb.
|
There is no equivalent in English for “Ich habe dich lieb”, it’s kind of between “I like you” and “I love you”. It basically means that you like someone very, very much. For example a mother might use it to tell her child how fond she is of him or her.
If you want to confess your love to someone, just say
Ich liebe dich. |
I love you. |
Hopefully the answer will be
Ich liebe dich auch |
I love you, too. |
Zum Beispiel
| Ich mag dich sehr gerne. | I like you lots |
| Ich habe dich sehr lieb. | I like you very much |
| Ich liebe dich über alles. | I love you more than anything. |
