What is the germen alphabet?

There's no such thing as a "Germen" alphabet. You're likely referring to the German alphabet.

The German alphabet is very similar to the English alphabet, with the addition of three letters:

* Ä, pronounced like the "a" in "father"

* Ö, pronounced like the "o" in "go"

* Ü, pronounced like the "oo" in "moon"

It's important to note that these are just the basic German letters. German also uses the umlaut, a diacritical mark placed above a vowel to modify its pronunciation. For example, the vowel "a" can become "ä", the vowel "o" can become "ö", and the vowel "u" can become "ü".

Here's a table of the German alphabet, including the umlauts:

| Letter | Pronunciation | English Equivalent |

|---|---|---|

| A | ah | a |

| Ä | eh | e |

| B | bay | b |

| C | tsay | ts |

| D | day | d |

| E | eh | e |

| F | eff | f |

| G | gay | g |

| H | hah | h |

| I | ee | i |

| J | yot | j |

| K | kah | k |

| L | el | l |

| M | em | m |

| N | en | n |

| O | oh | o |

| Ö | uh | u |

| P | pay | p |

| Q | koo | k |

| R | err | r |

| S | ess | s |

| T | tay | t |

| U | oo | u |

| Ü | üh | ü |

| V | fow | f |

| W | vay | v |

| X | iks | x |

| Y | ypsilon | y |

| Z | tset | ts |

Remember, the German alphabet is phonetic, meaning that the letters are generally pronounced as they are written.
