How do you say library in German language?

Answer 1

(die) Bücherei

(die) Bibliothek
English: "the library" = German: "die Bücherei".

I took a German class. It is die Bibliothek, and die Bibliotheken for the plural, libraries. I also looked in the German-English vocabulary section in the back of my book to confirm this. I have a German dictionary, I might as well check that too. Yep, I looked it up and I am certain that I have corrected the misleading answer fully.

I would like to be accurate though and say that, "die Bücherei", does mean (lending) library, but that it is not the usual term. So to whomever wrote the above answer you are correct, but I suspect that you looked it up online and have little or no knowledge of the German language.

I have problems just like everyone else, and am officially unsure of which is more correct, but I am certain that I would use Bibliothek, and I have had three semesters of German language learning.

To summarize my argument: I was in class all of this time, and when we talked about the library we refered to it as die Bibliothek.

In daily German you only use the word "die Bücherei". If you are a person studying in a university you use only the special word "die Bibliothek" being in that house.

As a German student I know it for sure.
