Hello students! Let's learn about the versatile German word Es, used for weather, general situations, and common expressions.
For weather, Es always starts the sentence. For example, Es regnet (it is raining) or Es ist kalt (it is cold). It denotes the general weather.
Es also indicates existence or importance. Think of Es gibt (there is/are) or Es ist wichtig (it is important). For "How are you?" (Wie geht es dir?), we reply Es geht mir gut (I am fine). Consistent practice will help you!
