Today we start a new podcast: German Words Explained.

In the coming weeks we are going to introduce you to some German Words that are difficult to understand, but are a part of everyday life – and we’re going to do it all in easy-to-understand German.

On www.germanwordsexplained.com we will also put a short explanation in English, and if you have any further questions on the words that we’ve chosen, or want to suggest words for future podcasts, then please let us know in the GermanWordsExplained forum.

Here are some links to the games mentioned in the podcast:

Bingo [USA] [UK] [DE]

Uno [USA] [UK]

Scrabble [USA] [UK] [UK Classic] [DE] [FR]

Monopoly [USA] [UK] [DE]
