10 Instagram accounts that will help you learn German

written by Uliana September 12, 2017
learn German on Instagram

How much time do you spend on Instagram every day? Don’t worry, I am not going to judge you if you say “a lot”. Instagram is probably the app I spend most of my free time on. So I got an idea, why not improve your German a little bit while checking your Instagram news feed? Of course, you can’t learn German just from liking and commenting on images on Instagram. But a little bit of extra practice in addition to your regular German course is always a good idea. Today I am sharing my top 10 Instagram accounts that will help you to learn and improve your German.

NOTICE: This blog is not being updated anymore. All new posts about free German learning resources and printable PDFs are now on GERMAN WORD OF THE DAY.

1. Deutsche Welle – Deutsch lernen

Deutsche Welle is one of my favorite resources for learning German and their Instagram account is also worth following. They post different content from quotes in German language to photos of Germany. But what I like most are the mini quizzes where you have to choose the right answer and put it in the comments.

View this post on Instagram

Ich habe ____ überhaupt nicht verstanden. Du? a) ihm b) ihn

A post shared by DW – Deutsch lernen (@dw_deutschlernen) on Sep 11, 2017 at 1:17am PDT

2.  quikkGerman

QuikkGerman posts short videos and pictures with a very detailed explanation in captions. There are also little quizzes where you can post the right answer in the comments.

View this post on Instagram

“Wo ist eigentlich die Steckdose?” . “Where is the socket, actually?” . “Wo” (where). Since this is a question word, its position has to be at the beginning of the sentence. . “eigentlich” (actually/in fact). This word is optional and today’s sentence would still sound perfectly fine, if we omitted it. By adding “eigentlich”, we emphasize that we want to know where the socket (“Steckdose”) really is. . “die Steckdose” (socket)

A post shared by quikkGerman (@quikkgerman) on Sep 10, 2017 at 6:11am PDT

3. German Word Of The Day

German Word Of The Day is a relatively new account where I post German words with English translation. You can save photos of the new words to an Instagram folder or take a screenshot and save it to your phone.

View this post on Instagram

Ich brauche ein neues Handy. – I need a new phone. Wo hast du dein Handy gekauft? – Where did you buy your phone? Ich will dieses Handy kaufen, aber es ist zu teuer. – I want to buy this phone but it is too expensive. Ich habe zu viele Apps auf meinem Handy. – I have too many apps on my phone. Er ist immer an seinem Handy! – He is always on his phone. Kennt ihr die Leute, die handysüchtig sind? – Do you know people who are addicted to their phones?

4.  Learngerman_deutschlernen

This Instagram account offers various content for German learners. You can find funny pictures and quotes (German humor exists!), vocabulary lists, bits of grammar and more.

View this post on Instagram

– Was machen Sie beruflich ? – Was sind Sie von Beruf ?

A post shared by German is easier than u think (@learngerman_deutschlernen) on Sep 9, 2017 at 11:44am PDT

 

5. Lernen_deutsch_sprache

In this Instagram account, you will find useful grammar charts and visual vocabulary lists.

6. Days of Deutsch

Days of Deutsch is a very cute account that I would probably follow even if I was not interested in the German language. The girl behind the account takes photos of things and the German word next to it. So simple, but so beautiful.

7. Basicgermanwords

Basicgermanwords is another creative account that reposts photos of German words you see in daily life. You can also get featured if you use the hashtag #basicgermanwords for your photos.

A post shared by #basicgermanwords by @widenka (@basicgermanwords) on Aug 31, 2017 at 9:55am PDT

8. Hack Your German

Hack Your German posts interesting German phrases with English translation and explanation. Here you can learn the expressions that are usually not taught in a standard German course.

View this post on Instagram

Ich habe einen ganz schönen Kater von gestern. Du auch? DE ?? sich schlecht fühlen, weil man zuvor zu viel Alkohol getrunken hat ?? DE EN ?? to be hungover ?? EN Literal translation ?: to have a male cat #hackyourgerman

Pro Tip

If your level of German is good enough to understand basic conversation, you can start following German-speaking Instagrammers. Just choose the topic you are interested in and look for the most popular people in this niche. Read their photo captions for reading practice and listen to their Instagram stories for listening practice.

For example, I love to travel and follow a bunch of travel accounts on Instagram. I looked up some German speaking travel bloggers so I can practice German at the same time when looking at stunning pictures from all over the world. My favorite ones so far are Adi and Valeria from adislittlecity and valeriaslittlecity. They are Swiss and even though I don’t understand very well what they say in their Instagram stories (they speak Swiss German), photo captions are written in perfect High German.

Another Instagram account I recommend for everyone who is learning German is germanwithjenny. Jenny is a native German speaker, she teaches language online and has a Youtube channel. 

And don’t forget to practice speaking! Instagram may be good for enriching your vocabulary and learning new words, but you need to work on speaking if you want to become fluent. I like to use Italki to find language exchange partners or take informal lessons with native speakers.

Have you heard that messages that come through on your website contact form are in fact an effective method to get more visitors and sales for your site? How exactly is this done? Easy peasy, we create an ad for you and we mass post it to tons of website contact pages on any kind of website you want. Does this method of advertising work? Of course they do! You’re reading this now aren’t you? The awesome thing is, you can do this for less than $3 a day! Interested in more details? just send a quick message here: UlisesMelinav85668@gmail.com
