Learning German Language Insights



Problem
How do I / you / we remember that morgen is tomorrow and not just morning?
How do I / you / we remember that drucken is print?

Answer
Imagine that somebody says he will pay you in the morning. However, you are sceptical, and think it will be some time later in the day, no guarantee that the money will reach you in the morning. So when a German or anybody speaking German promises you he / she will do something 'morgen', it means some time tomorrow. (Unspecified when. Only in the morning if you are lucky.)

Tips
German - English
drucken - press / print (verb)
morgen - tomorrow

English - German
press \ print - drucken
tomorrow - morgen
