18. German language A1 : How to Introduce Someone in German (Jemanden vorstellen)

When you meet someone new in German, you often want to introduce another person (third person). This is a great way to practice personal pronouns (er = he, sie = she, es = it, Sie = they).

Let’s go step by step with questions and answers, and then use examples.


🔹 Pronoun: Er (He)

Common Questions (Fragen):

  • Wer ist das? → Who is this?
  • Woher kommt er? → Where does he come from?
  • Wo wohnt er? → Where does he live?
  • Wie alt ist er? → How old is he?
  • Was lernt er? → What is he learning?
  • Wo arbeitet er? → Where does he work?
  • Was ist er von Beruf? → What is his profession?
  • Welche Sprachen spricht er? → Which languages does he speak?
  • Was sind seine Hobbys? → What are his hobbies?

Example (Beispiel):

Er wohnt in Frankfurt. (He lives in Frankfurt.)
Er ist 30 Jahre alt. (He is 30 years old.)
Er lernt Deutsch. (He is learning German.)
Er arbeitet bei BMW. (He works at BMW.)

Seine Hobbys sind Musik hören und Lesen. (His hobbies are listening to music and reading.)


🔹 Pronoun: Sie (She)

Common Questions (Fragen):

  • Wer ist das? → Who is this?

Ihre Hobbys sind Tanzen und Reisen. (Her hobbies are dancing and traveling.)


🔹 Pronoun: Es (It / Child)

👉 Normally, for children we say das Kind = it (es). But in everyday German, people use er (he) or sie (she) depending on the child’s gender. Still, grammatically:

Questions:

  • Wer ist das? → Who is this?
  • Woher kommt es? → Where does it come from?
  • Wo wohnt es? → Where does it live?
  • Wie alt ist es? → How old is it?
  • Was trinkt es? → What does it drink?

👉 Das ist ein Kind.
Es kommt aus Deutschland. (It comes from Germany.)
Es wohnt in Berlin. (It lives in Berlin.)
Es ist 5 Jahre alt. (It is 5 years old.)
Es trinkt Milch. (It drinks milk.)


🔹 Pronoun: Sie (Plural = They)

Common Questions (Fragen):

  • Wer sind sie? → Who are they?
  • Woher kommen sie? → Where do they come from?
  • Wo wohnen sie? → Where do they live?
  • Wie alt sind sie? → How old are they?
  • Wo arbeiten sie? → Where do they work?
  • Was sind sie von Beruf? → What are their professions?
  • Welche Sprachen sprechen sie? → Which languages do they speak?
  • Was sind ihre Hobbys? → What are their hobbies?

Example (Beispiel):
👉 Das sind Divya und Yogin.
Sie kommen aus Indien. (They come from India.)
Sie wohnen in Berlin. (They live in Berlin.)
Sie sind 32 Jahre alt. (They are 32 years old.)
Sie arbeiten bei BMW. (They work at BMW.)
Sie sind Ingenieure. (They are engineers.)
Sie sprechen Englisch, Hindi und Deutsch. (They speak English, Hindi, and German.)
Ihre Hobbys sind Yoga machen und Karten spielen. (Their hobbies are doing yoga and playing cards.)


🎯 Conclusion

Learning how to introduce people in German is a great way to practice:
✔️ Pronouns (er, sie, es, Sie)
✔️ Professions (von Beruf)
✔️ Languages (Sprachen sprechen)
✔️ Hobbies (Hobbys sind…)

A simple formula is:

👉 Das ist [Name].
Then add information step by step: where from, where living, age, job, languages, hobbies.

This works for anyone – your friends, colleagues, or family members.


✨ Pro Tip: You can turn this into a role play with a friend: one asks the questions, the other answers as if they are Divya, Yogin, or Marina. That way, the phrases stick much faster.
