In this short episode, Thomas gives you a quick lesson on talking about quantities in German! ☕✨


We’ll cover the tricky difference between viel (for uncountable nouns) and viele (for countable nouns), plus some handy related words like wenig/wenige, manche or jede Menge. You’ll hear clear examples, practise a few short exercises, and pick up some grammar tips that make using these words much easier.


By the end, you’ll know not only how to say “much” and “many,” but also a few advanced ways to express exactly how much of something there is. Perfect for conversation, writing, or even impressing your German friends with your vocabulary.
