In episode 19 you learned how to start a conversation in Luxembourgish.
In this episode, you will learn a) the secret to becoming more fluent and improving your Luxembourgish; b) how to keep a conversation going, without running out of things to say!
Letâs start with the secret to becoming more fluent and improving your Luxembourgish: this is so simple: you might be surprised: ASK MORE QUESTIONS
And we will at the end of the episode practice with two example conversations â an informal one using the du-form and a formal one using the Dir-form.
Are you ready to learn this secret and master an everyday conversation?
Bass du prett? Da lass!
Most of the topics of small talk conversations include an observation followed by a question. This is the best way to get people talking about themselves.
Talking about your next holidays
The holidays are always an interesting topic. Usually people like talking about their next holidays. Here are some useful phrases to start a conversation about that topic. An easy and straightforward question:
Wouhi gees du dĂ«st Joer an dâVakanz? â Where are you (informal) going on holidays this year?But if you want something more original, try this:
Endlech! DĂ©i nĂ€chst Woch ass Schoulvakanz. Hutt dir schonn eppes vir? Finally! Next week is school holidays. Do you (plural) have already something planned?Ech fueren, wĂ©i Ă«mmer, am Februar an de Wantersport. An du? Gees du och am Wanter an dâVakanz? â I go, as always, in February in the winter sports. What about you (informal)? Do you go as well on holidays in winter?Hereâs an example of how NOT to have an Luxembourgish conversation:
War dĂ€i Weekend flott? â Did you have a nice weekend?Jo. An dĂ€in? â Yes. And how was yours?Majo, och flott. â Well, nice as well.Unfortunately, the conversation stops here because thereâs no natural way to continue it. This is OK if you only want to have a quick conversation (for example, if you are quickly passing a co-worker in the hallway). But how can you have a longer conversation in Luxembourgish?
2 KEYS to continuing a conversation in Luxembourgish
1 Ask questions that start with the question words Wat, WĂ©ini, Wou, Firwat and WĂ©i. Try to avoid yes/no questions.
2 In your answers, give one or two details that will help continue the conversation. You donât need to talk for a long time.
Example of Luxembourgish Conversations
Here are two example conversations â an informal one using the du-form and a formal one using the Dir-form.
Notice how each person adds one or two details, and then there is a follow-up question about the details.
Moien! An, wéi war dÀi Weekend?
Zimmlech flott! E Samschdeg ware mir bei Frënn agelueden an e Sonndeg war ech mat menge Kanner an de Kino.
Flott. Wat sidd dir da kucke gaang?
Den EMOJI!
An? WĂ©i war en?
De Kanner huet de Film natierlech gutt gefall. An du? Wat hues du de Weekend gemaach?
Net esou vill. E Samschdeg sinn ech doheem bliwwen a sonndes moies ginn ech jo Ă«mmer lafen.
Ah sou? WĂ©i laang leefs du dann?
Normalerweis tëscht 45 Minutten an eng Stonn.
Leefs du eleng?
Jo, leider. Hues de Loscht eng KĂ©ier matzekommen?â
Oh nee, dat ass net menges. Ech gi just gÀr schwammen.
A wouhi gees du da schwammen?
âŠ
Hello! And, how was your weekend?
Quite nice! On Saturday we were invited at some friends and on Sunday I went with my kids to the cinema.
Nice. Which movie have you been watching?
EMOJI
And? How was it?
Of course, the children liked the movie. And how about you? What have you done last Weekend?
Not sou much. I stayed at home on Saturday and on Sunday mornings I always go running.
Oh, really? How long do you run?
Usually between 45 minutes and one hour.
Do you run alone?
Yes unfortunately. Would like to come with me once?
Oh no, that is not my cup of tea. I just like to go swimming.
And where do you go swimming?

In the last episode, we covered the 3 key rules for word order in Luxembourgish independent clauses. Now, we dive into dependent or subordinate clauses. But what does that mean? đ€
Subordinate clauses are those parts of a sentence that canât stand alone and need another part to complete their meaning. These clauses bring a new set of word order rules in Luxembourgish, and hereâs an important tip: đ The conjugated verb is always placed at the end of a subordinate clause.
Curious to learn more? Tune in to master these more advanced sentence structures!
Bass du prett?A Subordinate Clause is introduced bya subordinating conjunction: datt, ob, well, wann, etc
or in the case of relative clauses by a relative pronoun deen, déi, dat.
Here are some examples of subordinate clauses in Luxembourgish and English. Notice that each Luxembourgish subordinate clause (in bold type) is set off by a comma.
Examples:
a) Ech weess net, ob hien haut kĂ«nnt. I donât know if / whether he comes today.
b) Ech ginn haut net an dâSchwĂ€mm, well ech krank sinn. I donât go to the swimming pool today because I am sick.
c) Dat ass de Mann, dee mir gĂ«schter gesinn hunn. Thatâs the man (that/whom) we saw yesterday.
d) Wann dâWieder schĂ©in ass, ginn ech lafen. â If the weather is good, Iâll go running.
As you can see above, a Luxembourgish subordinate clause always starts with a subordinating conjunction and ends with the conjugated verb.
The ONE thing you must remember is that when a sentence starts with a subordinate clause, as in example d), the very first word after the comma (before the main clause) MUST be the verb: Wann dâWieder schĂ©in ass, ginn ech lafen.
Subordinating & other ConjunctionsOne important aspect of learning to deal with subordinate clauses is to be familiar with the subordinating conjunctions that introduce them.
All of the subordinating conjunctions require the conjugated verb to go at the end of the clause they introduce.
Learning Tip:
Another technique for learning conjunctions is to learn the ones that are NOT subordinating, called coordinating conjunctions, since there are fewer of those. The coordinating conjunctions with normal word order are:
awer / mee (but), oder (or), entweder/oder (either/or) an (and).
Examples:
Meng Eltere waren och am Kino, awer ech hu si net gesinn. â My parents were also at the movies, but I didnât see them.
Du kanns mir dâSuen direkt ginn, oder du bezils dono. â You can give me the money straight away or you can pay later.
Entweder du waarts hei op eis, oder du gees mat. â Either you wait for us here, or you come with us.
Remark: After an, the subject (if it remains the same) can often be omitted because it is understood, so the verb often follows it immediately:
Ech iesse moies eng Schmier an drĂ©nken dobĂ€i TĂ©i. â I eat a slice of bread in the morning and to that I drink tea.
The word wéi is also used in comparisons (méi grouss wéi, bigger than), in which case it is not a subordinating conjunction. As always, you have to look at the context in which a word appears in a sentence.
Learn the most important Coordinating & Subordinate Conjunctions and practice with many exercises with my

There are cases in which Luxembourgish and English word order are identical,however the word order in Luxembourgish is more variable and flexible than in English. In particular, sentences need not begin with the subject. BUT there are strict rules determining the position of the VERB and there are a few other rules to bear in mind.
1. The Verb is Always the Second ElementNo matter which element begins a Luxembourgish declarative sentence (a statement), the verb is always the second element. If you remember nothing else about Luxembourgish word order, remember this. The subject for instance ech, den Hond, Meng Kanner, dâHaus will either come first or immediately after the verb if the subject is not the first element. This is a simple and fast rule. In a statement (not a question) the verb always comes second.
This rule applies to sentences and phrases that are independent clauses.
A ânormalâ word order places the subject first, the verb second, and any other elements third.
Examples:
Ech lĂ©ieren haut LĂ«tzebuergesch. â I learn Luxembourgish today.
Haut lĂ©ieren ech LĂ«tzebuergesch. â Today I learn Luxembourgish. (Lit: Today learn I Luxembourgish)
Remark:
âin second positionâ or âsecond place,â means the second element, NOT necessarily the second word.
Only one element can precede the verb, but it may consist of more than one word, for example Haut den Owend.
In such cases, the verb remains second and the subject must immediately follow the verb:
âHaut den Owend lĂ©ieren ech LĂ«tzebuergesch. âThis evening I learn Luxembourgish.
âUm wĂ©i vill Auer bass du muer doheem. âAt what time are you at home tomorrow
2. Time, Manner and Place: Wéini, Wéi, WouAnother area where Luxembourgish syntax may vary from that of English is the position of expressions of time wéini?, manner wéi? and place wou?
In English we would say, Tom is coming home by train today. English word order in such cases is place, manner, time⊠the exact opposite of Luxembourgish. We say: time, manner, place.
Examples:
Den Tom kĂ«nnt haut mam Zuch heem. â haut (time), mam Zuch (manner), heem (place).
Ech ginn all Dag mam Auto op dâAarbecht. â all Dag (time), mam Auto (manner), dâAarbecht (place). â I go to work by car everyday.
3. Sentence BracketWhen you have a separable verb (with a prefix), a modal verb or when a verb is used in combination with a second verb then the conjugated verb still stays in POSITION 2. This creates a sentence bracket that contains all of the other information.
Examples:
Meng Mamm fiert normalerweis um 6 Auer heem. â My mom usually goes home at 6pm.
Here we have a separable verb heemfueren. â fueren is the stem and heem is the a prefix.
For such verbs, the prefix is separated from the stem and placed at the end of the sentence in the present tense (as long as the clause is not subordinate or relative).
Meng Mamm wĂ«ll haut um 6 Auer heemfueren. â My mom wants to go home at 6pm today.
Here we have the modal verb wëllen (the conjugated verb) and the 2. verb comes at the very end of the sentence. In this case a separable verb is no longer separated.
Meng Mamm ass haut um 6 Auer heemgefuer. My mom came home at 6pm today.
I know that the sentence order is quite challenging. Thatâs why And as there is much to say about the word order in Luxembourgish sentences I decided to create an online course â 10 day course: Understand the Basics of Luxembourgish Sentence Structure - this is included for FREE in the online course A1F
Summary :1 Simple, declarative sentences are identical in Luxembourgish and English: Subject, verb, other. Ech léiere Lëtzebuergesch
2 The verb is always the second element in a Luxembourgish sentence. Am Summer ginn ech gĂ€r an dâSchwĂ€mm..
3 Luxembourgish sentences are usually âTime, Manner, Place.â Ech fueren um 8 Auer moies mam Auto op dâAarbecht
4 With separable, modal verbs and tenses, the second verb goes last, but the conjugated verb is still second.
Ech fueren Ă«mmer um 6 Auer owes heem

Do you find it challenging to understand native Luxembourgish speakers? đ€ You're not alone! Many Luxembourgish learners struggle with listening to natural, spoken Luxembourgish. While slow audios are helpful at the beginning, they may not be enough as you progress.

In this podcast, I dive into why listening to Luxembourgish can be so difficult and how to overcome these challenges. Letâs tackle this together! đ§đȘ

The best way to help your child learn Luxembourgish is by NOT teaching.
The standard advice does not apply to young kids. Language learning for children, as a pedagogy, is very different from that for adults. As adults, we are self-directed learners; we create our own motivation and hold ourselves accountable. But children cannot do any of those things.
When children are very young, they can't be expected to sit and concentrate for long periods, so it is ineffective to "teach" them in a traditional sense. If you place them in a language class for 45 minutes or an hour, they won't learn to speak Luxembourgish. Language acquisition doesn't happen that way for young children. The idea of formal language lessons for children up to around age 8 is a non-starter.
Instead, it is essential to find something that is fun, engaging, and makes the language a natural part of their lives. The best resources for this are people đ„, songs đ¶, and books đ.
I have seen first-hand how just by spending time with childrenâplaying, talking, and doing activities with themâthey naturally learn Luxembourgish. It is through two-way communication that children learn a language best.

Join our latest podcast episode as we tackle one of the most frequently asked questions from our students: How can I remember the gender of nouns in Luxembourgish?
While I wish I could offer a quick fix or magic trick, the truth is, mastering noun genders is a gradual process that requires a bit of patience and practice. With three gendersâmasculine, feminine, and neutralâit might seem daunting at first. But fear not, because I'm here to guide you through it!
In this episode, I'll share insights on:
Understanding the importance of learning noun genders
Tips for remembering noun genders effectively
Embracing mistakes as part of the learning journey
đ Learning Tip: Whenever you encounter a new word, make it a habit to identify its gender and jot it down. Over time, you'll build confidence and fluency in recognizing Luxembourgish noun genders.
Tune in now and take the first step towards mastering Luxembourgish! đ±đș
