In German, there are three letters which you do not find in the English language:
ä, ö, and ü.
Each has got a specific pronunciation.
You speak a kind of "ä" when you speak the English "way". Erase the "w" and the"y" and then you have got the "ä"
you might hear "ö" when you speak a very very very british "low" with almost closed lips.
I do not have an example for "ü" but the dots do have a meaning.
The two dots over a vowel in German is called an 'Umlaut' meaning 'change of sound'.
The effect it has is the same as adding an 'e' after that vowel, and in fact you sometimes see words spelled that way e.g. Jaeger or Jäger.
