Guten Tag! In my last post<\/a> I took it back to basics and taught you what all of the different body parts are called in German. This is a topic that is always useful, especially if you go to the doctor in Germany, for example. As there are so many different body parts and names for everything, I have split this into two posts. The first post focused on the basic names of the body parts. This follow-up post will give some more specific\/advanced vocabulary. So hopefully there will be something for everyone over these two posts! Here is post number one Body Parts In German \u2013 Simple.<\/a> And now here is post number two, with slightly more advanced vocabulary.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
