Re: German for beginners
Since I won't be here in the next few days, here's a little lesson for today (next one hopefully coming on Monday).
DIE ZAHLEN 0-10 - Numbers from 0 to 10
0 null
1 eins
2 zwei *
3 drei
4 vier
5 fünf
6 sechs
7 sieben
8 acht
9 neun
10 zehn
* Often "zwo" is used instead of zwei to avoid confusion with drei.
For pronunciation follow this link (turn your volume on!!!):

Re: German for beginners
Hi Beth
In my experience in the every-day conversation the "zwo" comes up very often, so you can use it without problems. In fact it is really not important, both are fine, but if you have 2 and 3 in a row, for example, or if someone isn't sure what you said when you said "zwei", then you can repeat it as "zwo". I think the main difference is that "zwo" is largely colloquial whereas "zwei" is the so called "Hohdeutsch" (the formal way).
Hope it helped
