ebenerdig 30秒で
- Ebenerdig means ground-level.
- It describes easy access without stairs.
- Commonly used for houses, apartments, and entrances.
- Focuses on accessibility and convenience.
The German adjective 'ebenerdig' directly translates to 'ground-level' in English. It's used to describe something that is situated at, or accessible from, ground level, without any stairs or elevation changes required for access. Think of it as being on the same level as the ground outside.
This term is particularly useful when discussing buildings, apartments, entrances, gardens, or any other location where accessibility and ease of access are important. It implies a lack of barriers and a straightforward entry point. For example, an apartment that is 'ebenerdig' means you can walk right into it from the street or garden without climbing any steps. Similarly, a garage that is 'ebenerdig' is accessible directly from the outside at ground level.
The concept of 'ebenerdig' is often associated with convenience and accessibility, especially for people with mobility issues, families with strollers, or anyone who prefers not to deal with stairs. In real estate listings, it's a significant selling point, highlighting ease of living. When describing a house, an 'ebenerdiger' Eingang (ground-level entrance) or an 'ebenerdiger' Wohnbereich (ground-level living area) signifies a more accessible and potentially more desirable property.
Beyond physical spaces, the term can sometimes be used more metaphorically, though this is less common. It might imply a straightforward, uncomplicated, or easily understandable approach to something. However, its primary and most frequent use remains in the literal sense of being at ground level. When you hear or read 'ebenerdig,' picture a smooth, level path leading directly to the point of interest, without any need to ascend or descend.
Consider a house with an 'ebenerdiger' Zugang zum Garten'. This means you can step directly from your house into the garden without any steps. This is a very practical description. Another example might be 'Das Schlafzimmer ist ebenerdig', indicating that the bedroom is on the ground floor and easily accessible. The word emphasizes the absence of elevation, making it a key descriptor for accessibility and ease of use in various contexts, from housing to public spaces.
Die neue Wohnung ist ebenerdig, also ohne Stufen.
- Key Characteristics
- Accessibility: Implies easy access without stairs or ramps.
- Level: Situated at the same height as the surrounding ground.
- Convenience: Often associated with practicality and ease of use.
Using 'ebenerdig' in a sentence is straightforward. As an adjective, it typically follows a noun it describes or comes after a linking verb like 'sein' (to be) or 'liegen' (to lie). The most common structures involve describing a location, an entrance, or a part of a building.
Describing a Location/Property:
- Structure
- [Noun] ist ebenerdig.
- [Noun] liegt ebenerdig.
Das Haus hat einen ebenerdigen Eingang.
In this example, 'ebenerdigen' is in the accusative case because it modifies 'Eingang' which is the direct object of 'hat' (has). Notice the '-en' ending. If it were describing the entrance directly, like 'Der Eingang ist ebenerdig', the adjective would take no ending.
Describing an Apartment or Room:
- Structure
- Das Zimmer / Die Wohnung ist ebenerdig.
Wir suchen eine ebenerdige Wohnung mit Garten.
Here, 'ebenerdige' is in the accusative case modifying 'Wohnung'. The '-e' ending is used because 'Wohnung' is feminine and it's preceded by an indefinite article ('eine').
Describing Access:
- Structure
- Zugang ebenerdig
Der Zugang zum Park ist ebenerdig.
This structure emphasizes the ease of entering a place. The adjective here acts predicatively, describing the 'Zugang'.
Remember that 'ebenerdig' is an adjective and its endings will change depending on the gender, case, and number of the noun it modifies, as well as the presence of articles or determiners. However, when used predicatively (after 'sein' or 'liegen'), it usually remains in its base form 'ebenerdig'.
You'll frequently encounter the word 'ebenerdig' in specific everyday contexts in German-speaking countries, primarily related to real estate, architecture, and descriptions of public spaces. It's a practical term used to convey information about accessibility and location.
Real Estate Listings: This is perhaps the most common place to see 'ebenerdig'. When browsing apartments or houses for sale or rent, you'll often find descriptions like:
- Example Phrases
- 'Helle 3-Zimmer-Wohnung, ebenerdig mit Terrasse.'
- 'Einfamilienhaus mit ebenerdigem Schlafzimmer.'
- 'Barrierefreier Zugang, die Wohnung ist komplett ebenerdig.'
- 'Einfamilienhaus mit ebenerdigem Schlafzimmer.'
These phrases highlight the convenience for potential buyers or renters, especially those with mobility concerns, families with young children, or anyone who dislikes stairs.
Architectural and Construction Discussions: Architects, builders, and homeowners might use 'ebenerdig' when discussing plans or renovations. For instance:
- Example Phrases
- 'Wir planen einen ebenerdigen Anbau an das bestehende Haus.'
- 'Der Kellerabgang ist steil, aber der Haupteingang ist ebenerdig.'
Descriptions of Public Spaces and Facilities: You might hear or read about 'ebenerdigen' access to parks, museums, shops, or public transport:
- Example Phrases
- 'Der Spielplatz ist ebenerdig und leicht zugänglich.'
- 'Bitte beachten Sie, dass der Zugang zum Bahnsteig nicht ebenerdig ist.'
Everyday Conversations: When friends discuss moving or visiting places, 'ebenerdig' can come up naturally.
'Meine Oma wohnt jetzt in einer ebenerdigen Wohnung, das ist viel einfacher für sie.'
While 'ebenerdig' is a relatively straightforward adjective, learners might make a few common mistakes, often related to grammar or overgeneralization.
1. Incorrect Adjective Endings:
This is the most frequent error for learners of German adjectives. 'Ebenerdig' needs correct endings when it precedes a noun (attributive position). Forgetting or misapplying these endings can lead to grammatically incorrect sentences.
- Mistake
- Ich habe ein ebenerdig Haus gekauft.
- Correct
- Ich habe ein ebenerdiges Haus gekauft.
Here, 'Haus' is neuter, and with the indefinite article 'ein', the adjective 'ebenerdig' takes the '-es' ending in the accusative case.
- Mistake
- Das ist ein ebenerdig Eingang.
- Correct
- Das ist ein ebenerdiger Eingang.
'Eingang' is masculine, so with 'ein', it takes the '-er' ending.
2. Confusing with 'Erdgeschoss' (Ground Floor):
While related, 'ebenerdig' and 'Erdgeschoss' are not always interchangeable. 'Erdgeschoss' refers to the entire floor of a building. 'Ebenerdig' describes something being *at* ground level, which might be a part of the Erdgeschoss or an entire structure without multiple levels.
- Mistake
- Die Wohnung ist im ebenerdig.
- Correct
- Die Wohnung ist im Erdgeschoss.
However, you can say:
- Correct
- Die Wohnung im Erdgeschoss ist ebenerdig zugänglich.
This means the apartment is on the ground floor and has direct access from outside.
3. Overusing 'ebenerdig' for Anything on the Ground Floor:
'Ebenerdig' specifically implies direct access from the outside at ground level. A room on the ground floor that is only accessible via stairs from inside the building might not always be described as 'ebenerdig' in terms of its external access. The emphasis is on the *level* of the entrance or the feature itself relative to the ground.
Falsch: Das Museum ist ebenerdig.
Richtig: Der Eingang zum Museum ist ebenerdig.
The latter sentence correctly specifies that the *entrance* is at ground level. The entire museum might span multiple floors, but its entry point is accessible.
While 'ebenerdig' is quite specific, there are related terms and phrases that convey similar ideas, but with nuances in meaning or usage. Understanding these alternatives helps you choose the most precise word for your context.
1. Erdgeschoss (Ground Floor):
- Ebenerdig vs. Erdgeschoss
- Ebenerdig (adjective): Refers to something being *at* ground level, emphasizing direct access without steps. It can describe an entrance, a path, a room, or even a whole house if it only has one level.
- Erdgeschoss (noun): Refers to the entire floor of a building that is at ground level. You live *im Erdgeschoss* (on the ground floor).
My apartment is on the ground floor: Meine Wohnung ist im Erdgeschoss.
My ground-floor apartment has direct garden access: Meine ebenerdige Wohnung hat direkten Gartenzugang.
2. Barrierefrei (Barrier-free):
- Ebenerdig vs. Barrierefrei
- Ebenerdig: Specifically about being at ground level.
- Barrierefrei: A broader term meaning 'without barriers'. This implies accessibility for everyone, including people with disabilities. While an 'ebenerdige' entrance is usually 'barrierefrei', a 'barrierefrei' space might also include ramps, wider doorways, or accessible restrooms, even if it's not strictly 'ebenerdig' (e.g., a ramp leading to a slightly elevated entrance).
The library entrance is barrier-free: Der Eingang zur Bibliothek ist barrierefrei.
The ground-floor cafe has no steps: Das ebenerdige Café hat keine Stufen.
3. Ohne Stufen (Without Steps):
- Ebenerdig vs. Ohne Stufen
- Ebenerdig: Implies being at ground level, which inherently means no steps for access.
- Ohne Stufen: A descriptive phrase that directly states the absence of steps. It can be used to describe anything, including an 'ebenerdig' entrance, but also a ramp or a level path.
The path to the house is without steps: Der Weg zum Haus ist ohne Stufen.
The house has a ground-level entrance: Das Haus hat einen ebenerdigen Eingang.
4. Ebene (Level):
- Ebenerdig vs. Ebene
- Ebenerdig: Specifically ground level.
- Ebene: A more general term for 'level' or 'floor'. You can have multiple 'Ebenen' in a building. 'Ebenerdig' is essentially the first or lowest 'Ebene' relative to the ground.
The third level of the parking garage: Die dritte Ebene des Parkhauses.
The ground-level parking spots: Die ebenerdigen Parkplätze.
How Formal Is It?
豆知識
The word's construction is very direct and descriptive, typical of German compound words. It clearly conveys the idea of being on the same level as the earth, emphasizing simplicity and direct access. The '-ig' suffix is a common way to form adjectives in German.
発音ガイド
- Pronouncing the 'g' at the end as a hard 'g' like in 'go'. It should be a soft 'ch' sound, almost like a 'y' or 'd' sound depending on regional accent, but typically it's very soft or silent.
- Incorrect vowel sounds, especially in the unstressed syllables.
- Adding an extra syllable or misplacing the stress.
難易度
Understanding 'ebenerdig' in reading is generally straightforward, especially in contexts like real estate. The main challenge might be remembering the correct adjective endings when it precedes a noun.
The primary difficulty in writing lies in applying the correct adjective declensions according to the gender, case, and number of the noun it modifies.
Pronunciation is relatively simple. The main challenge in speaking is using it in the correct grammatical context, especially with adjective endings.

The word 'ebenerdig' is a compound word formed from two German elements: 'eben' meaning 'level' or 'flat', and 'Erde' meaning 'earth' or 'ground', with the adjective suffix '-ig' (which becomes '-ig' or '-ig' depending on context and case). It literally translates to 'earth-level' or 'ground-level'.
元の意味： Directly translates to 'earth-level' or 'ground-level'.
Germanic文化的な背景
The term 'ebenerdig' is highly positive when discussing accessibility for the elderly or people with disabilities. It signifies independence and ease of movement, making it a key factor in housing choices for these groups.
In English, 'ground-level' or 'at ground level' serves a similar purpose. Terms like 'single-story' also imply this, but 'ground-level' is more precise for describing access points.
