What Is Realistic"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, you cannot learn German in 30 days, but you can learn survival German and make a solid start on A1. The Goethe-Institut estimates around 60-150 hours of instruction for A1 alone, so a month of 2 hours a day (about 60 hours) lands at the bottom of that range. Fluency takes far longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This page explains what 30 days can and cannot do, then gives a day-by-day plan with sentences you can say from day 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What 30 days can and cannot do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>After 30 days you can<\/th><th>After 30 days you cannot<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Greet, introduce yourself, spell your name<\/td><td>Hold a long, unplanned conversation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Count, say the time and the date<\/td><td>Follow fast native speech<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Order food and drink, ask for prices<\/td><td>Explain a problem at a doctor in detail<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ask simple questions and understand slow answers<\/td><td>Write correct longer emails<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Use sein, haben, regular verbs, a few modal verbs<\/td><td>Use cases, Perfekt and subordinate clauses reliably<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Read signs, menus and simple messages<\/td><td>Pass an exam without further study<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hours matter. At 2 hours a day, 30 days gives about 60 hours; at 1 hour a day, about 30 hours; at 3 hours a day, about 90. The Goethe figures describe guided class time, so treat them as a reference and not a promise. For more detail on how much time a day is enough, see <a href=\"\/blog\/minutes-a-day-to-learn-german\/\">how many minutes a day to learn German<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I speak German in 3 months? Can I be fluent?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After three months at about 1-1.5 hours a day (roughly 90-135 hours) you can complete A1 and begin A2: simple conversations about familiar topics. That is functional, not fluent. Fluency in the everyday sense is closer to B2, and the Goethe-Institut gives much higher hour estimates for B1 and B2 than for A1. See <a href=\"\/blog\/is-b1-german-fluent\/\">is B1 German fluent<\/a> and <a href=\"\/blog\/how-long-to-learn-german\/\">how long it takes to learn German<\/a> for the longer view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Speak from day 1: ten sentences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will not wait for grammar before you speak. Learn these ten sentences in the first three days, and say them aloud until they feel automatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>German<\/th><th>English<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Hallo, ich hei\u00dfe &#8230;<\/td><td>Hello, my name is &#8230;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ich komme aus &#8230;<\/td><td>I come from &#8230;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ich lerne Deutsch.<\/td><td>I am learning German.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sprechen Sie Englisch?<\/td><td>Do you speak English?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ich verstehe nicht.<\/td><td>I do not understand.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>K\u00f6nnen Sie das bitte wiederholen?<\/td><td>Can you repeat that, please?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Langsamer, bitte.<\/td><td>Slower, please.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ich m\u00f6chte einen Kaffee, bitte.<\/td><td>I would like a coffee, please.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Was kostet das?<\/td><td>How much is this?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Wo ist die Toilette?<\/td><td>Where is the toilet?<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The 30-day plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Time per day: 2 hours (adapt to 1 hour and extend the plan to 60 days).
