Licht ausmachen

turn off the light

意味

To switch off an electric light.

🌍

文化的背景

Energy conservation is a high priority. Leaving lights on in an empty room is often commented upon by roommates or parents. In some regions, 'abdrehen' is used more frequently than 'ausmachen', reflecting the history of gas valves. Swiss German often uses 'lösche' (extinguish) even for electric lights in dialect contexts.

💡

Separable Verb Rule

Always remember: the 'aus' goes to the very end. 'Ich mache das Licht im großen blauen Zimmer... aus!'

⚠️

Don't say 'schließen'

Even if your native language says 'close the light', Germans will find it very confusing.
