Something that comes up frequently as a source of confusion for German learners is this: How come in the phrase <strong>Guten Morgen<\/strong>, the word <strong>Morgen<\/strong> (morning) is capitalised, but the word <strong>morgen<\/strong> (tomorrow) on its own is not? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, the reason the <em>Morgen<\/em> in <em>Guten Morgen<\/em> is capitalised is because the word <em>Morgen<\/em> is a noun, and all German nouns are capitalised. The word <em>morgen<\/em>, however, is an adverb meaning<em> tomorrow<\/em>. Therefore, it is not capitalised.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst this is pretty straight-forward, there are some grey areas to consider. So let\u2019s look at each word in turn.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Guten Morgen<\/strong> \u2013 The greeting \u2018good morning\u2019. Sometimes shortened to just \u2018Morgen!\u2019<\/li>\n<li><strong>der Morgen<\/strong> \u2013 The morning.<\/li>\n<li><strong>morgen<\/strong> \u2013 The German word for \u2018tomorrow\u2019. An adverb, therefore written in lower-case unless at the start of a sentence.<\/li>\n<li><strong>das Morgen<\/strong> \u2013 A future date; \u2018the tomorrow\u2019. This is used when saying things like, \u2018No one knows what tomorrow will bring\u2019 or \u2018Tomorrow is unwritten\u2019 (<em>\u2018Das Morgen ist ungeschrieben\u2019<\/em>).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"attachment_13175\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone post-item__attachment\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13175\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13175\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/07\/dawid-zawila-G3rw6Y02D0-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/07\/dawid-zawila-G3rw6Y02D0-unsplash.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/german\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/07\/dawid-zawila-G3rw6Y02D0-unsplash-350x234.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-13175\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@davealmine?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Dawid Zawi\u0142a<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/morning?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Here\u2019s an example of how you\u2019d use the lower-case <em>morgen<\/em>, meaning <em>tomorrow<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wir gehen morgen spazieren \u2013<\/strong> We\u2019re going for a walk tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Now, here&#8217;s where it can get confusing!
