The memory trick
Imagine you’re hiking in the German Alps when you spot a tiny cabin with a sign that says "Lesen Lounge." Inside, a cheerful goat is flipping through a book with its hooves, bleating "L AY -zen" (mimicking the German pronunciation: ˈleːzn̩). You laugh and join it, reading together under a lantern’s glow. Now, every book you see reminds you of that goat chanting "Lesen!"
In a sentence
Die Ziege liebt es, in der Hütte zu lesen.
The goat loves to read in the cabin.
