CAN YOU GERMANS PLEASE HELP Me ?


Travel Info
How do you say 'shut up' in german? ( write down the correct spelling and then write the word in such a way again in the english language that is is spelt the way it is pronounced )

Travel Tips
like they said before...
the pronounciation is very difficult to describe..

a little bit more friendly is

"Halt deinen Mund" if you want to forbit someone to speak, if you are angry.
[Halt - with the "a" from car but shorter. deinen -
dei=die nen= the en like in commen, short..
Mund - the u sound similar to the ou-sound in you... but shorter. the d like a t ]

"Sei ruhig" if someone is desturbing all the time. a way to say, be quiet.
[ Sei like die with an s ;
ruhig - two parts ru-hig with ru with the u-sound from you again, with the same lenght and hig like hug with and i like se sound of the e from me but shorter]


the unfriendly way is
"Halt die Klappe" [Halt - with the "a" from car but shorter;
die - the ie sound like the e from me. the same lenght. ;
Klappe. two parts- Klap-pe --> Klap like clap but with the "a" from car but shorter --> pe similar to the sound from the e of the.]

"Schnauze" [Schnau-ze --Sch like sh from show, au is similar to the sound of ou from our ; ze - its a sharp s-sound.]

Others
''verschlossen'' I think... But I'm not sure
German is not my first language
it depends on how you mean to say shut up ... usually just using English and saying it is more than enough ... lived in Mannheim for 7 years.
'Ruhe bitte' means 'be quiet please' if that helps.

'roo-uh bit-uh'
It's "Halts Maul"... It's more like Shut the **** up... :)
Hau ab! "HOW Upb" (the b is like a cross between a p and b.)

den Mund halten! "dane MUNT HALL-ten"

"halt die Schnauze" (HALT dee SHNOW-zuh)
(OW as is "Ow! that hurt!") (a Schauze is a snout, so it's calling the person a pig.)
