How do you say 5 in German?

Answer 1

1) eins 2) zwei 3) drei 4) vier 5) funf 6) sechs 7) seiben 8) acht 9)neun 10) zhen

Phonetically:

1) eyenz 2) ts'fye 3) dry 4) fear 5) funf 6) zex 7) zeben 8) acht 9) neun 10) ts'hen

Note:

1) a 'Z' at the beginning of a word in German is pronounced as "ts", this is done by placing your lower and upper teeth together and pressing your tongue against them. (Almost like you were going to "gleek spit").

2) the 'V' in German is called 'fau' no 'vee'. It makes an 'f' sound. So the German word for '4' is vier and is pronounced exactly like the English word 'Fear'.

3) the letter 'S' has the English 'Z' sound. Thus the number '6' sounds exactly like the English word for 'Sex' except with a 'Z' instead of 'S' sound at the beginning.

4) Number '1' sounds just like Heinz ketchup, just talk the 'H' off of Heinz.

You should now be able to count from 1 -10!

One more thing, 0 is NUL (exactly as it looks) 11 is ELF (exactly how it looks) & 12 is ZWOLF (the coolest sounding number in any language) it's the rule for 'Z' in note #1. and the English word for Wolf, phonetically ts'wolf.
