Good morning!

Visitors to the "First 50 words in Spanish, French and Italian" will know it started with individual words and showed how to put them together. Because the Germanic languages are trickier - a lot more endings, among other things - I think it's better to learn whole phrases and gradually learn what's inside. For that reason, we're going to start with several greetings of the "Good morning" variety, then break out the pieces. For example, in this first item, you'll plainly see "good" and "morning," but we're not going to figure out anything in the middle yet.

Here's Good Morning:

German	Dutch	Swedish
Guten Morgen	Goedemorgen	Godmorgon
gooten mor-gen	khoodö mor-khön	goo-mo-ron

kh as in loch; oo as in "book"; oo (no italics) as in "boo"; ö like German schön, French peu (use "er" if you can't get it)
