    Introducing yourself and talking about people is where almost every conversation in German starts, so this vocabulary is some of the first you should know. This deck collects the German words for personal information and people, from family and relationships to the details you give about yourself, and turns them into flashcards. Each card shows the word in German, and you flip it to check the English meaning.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What personal information and people words will I learn?
    The deck covers family members, relationships, and the words you use to describe people and give your own details: name, age, the family, friends, and more. These are the German words you reach for whenever you introduce yourself or talk about others.
    Are the nouns shown with their article?
    Yes. Each noun comes with its article (der, die, or das), since the gender is part of the word. Learning die Familie rather than just Familie means you have the gender right from the start.
    How do the flashcards keep practice efficient?
    You rate each card after flipping it. Hard cards come back sooner and easy cards wait longer, so your practice stays on the words you have not learned yet. Signed-in users keep their progress saved.
    Where is the full word list?
    The complete personal information and people page lists every word with example sentences. These flashcards are the practice version of that list.
