der Zuckerersatz = artificial sugar
das Süßungsmittel = sweetener
der Meinungsmacher = an opinion-maker, e.g. a certain newspaper in Germany is a Meinungsmacher because it has a lot of influence on its readers

You don’t have to know German before you have learned it.
Are you intimidated by a new German book? You might be like one of my clients, who, after the comfort developed by having spent time working through the A1 materials, looked at the A2 book for the very first time and said, “But I can’t do that!

How to Use a German Typewriter

If you've completed the A1 level and/or have passed the A1 test, if you have a decent (60%) handle on the Akkusativ and Dativ prepositions, if you can use the Perfekt correctly at least 60% of the time, and if you can correct u…

Always 'Frau,' never 'Fräulein' (RANT)
First the educational part, and then the rant.
Here is the educational part: I have no idea why this information isn't widespread in the US, but decades ago, DECADES, Germans stopped using the word Fräulein. It's inappropriate and impolite to use it.
Educational part done.
