Think about the big milestones we all experience:

👶 being born

🎓 going to school

💼 starting work

💍 getting married

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 having a family

🛋 retiring

⚰️ and even the end of life.

Each of these stages has its own key expressions in Luxembourgish. And from my teaching experience, I’ve seen that many learners make mistakes with exactly these kinds of words.

That’s why I’ve created this new series — Luxembourgish for Life — to guide you through the vocabulary and expressions that follow the journey of life itself.

Here’s what to expect:

👉 Today’s episode: Birth and being born

👉 Next: School and education

👉 Then: Work and professional life

👉 After that: Marriage and family

👉 And finally: Retirement and the end of life

By the end of the series, you’ll feel confident using these expressions — whether you’re talking about yourself, your family, or someone else.

✨ Episode 1 is live now: let’s start at the very beginning with vocabulary for birth and being born.

🎧 Listen now and start mastering the Luxembourgish of everyday life.

The key isn’t using more words - it’s using the right ones.

Here’s a quick test: Which of these feels more natural to you?

• "Entschëlleg…" (informal)
• "Entschëllegt" (formal + polite, final “t” pronounced)

That tiny difference can completely change how your request is received.

In my latest podcast episode, I share simple, polite, real-life phrases you can use right away — like:

• Entschëllegt, kënnt Dir mir soen, wéi ech op d’Gare kommen?
• Ech sichen den Nationalmusée — wësst Dir wou en ass?

If you’ve ever worried about sounding awkward or too formal (or not formal enough) when asking for directions, this episode is your shortcut to confidence.
