neblig

When you're talking about the weather and it's full of fog, you use the adjective neblig. It's similar to the English 'foggy'.

For example, you might say, "Es ist sehr neblig heute Morgen" (It is very foggy this morning) if you can barely see the street. You can also use it to describe a place that is often foggy, like "Der See ist oft neblig im Herbst" (The lake is often foggy in autumn).

Remember, it's an adjective, so it will change its ending depending on the noun it describes, just like other German adjectives. But for general weather descriptions, 'es ist neblig' is perfectly fine.

When we talk about the weather, we often need adjectives to describe what it's like. One such adjective in German is "neblig". This word directly translates to "foggy" in English. You'll use it to describe conditions where there is a lot of fog, making visibility low. For example, you might say, "Es ist heute Morgen sehr neblig" to mean, "It is very foggy this morning." It's a straightforward and useful word for everyday weather descriptions.

开始练习 笔记与提示

§ What 'neblig' means

The German word neblig (pronounced NAY-blish) is an adjective. It means 'foggy' or 'full of or covered with fog'. It's a useful word to know when you want to describe weather conditions, especially during certain seasons like autumn or winter.

DEFINITION
foggy; full of or covered with fog.

§ How to use 'neblig' in sentences

You'll often hear 'neblig' when people are talking about the weather. It's pretty straightforward to use. Here are some common examples:

  • Es ist heute Morgen sehr neblig gewesen. (It was very foggy this morning.)

  • Die Straße war neblig, also bin ich langsam gefahren. (The road was foggy, so I drove slowly.)

  • In den Bergen kann es oft sehr neblig sein. (In the mountains, it can often be very foggy.)

§ Where you actually hear this word — work, school, news

You'll hear 'neblig' most often in casual conversations about the weather. It's a very common adjective. Here’s how it might come up in different contexts:

At Work: If you're talking with colleagues, especially if the weather affects commuting or visibility, you might hear this word. For example, before a meeting, someone might say:

Der Weg zur Arbeit war heute Morgen ziemlich neblig. (The way to work was quite foggy this morning.)

Or if a delivery is delayed due to weather:

Der Flug ist wegen des nebligen Wetters verspätet. (The flight is delayed because of the foggy weather.)

At School: Students might talk about the weather before class, or a teacher might mention it. For instance, during a morning break:

Siehst du, wie neblig es draußen ist? (Do you see how foggy it is outside?)

Or in a geography class discussing climate:

Im Herbst sind die Morgen oft sehr neblig. (In autumn, the mornings are often very foggy.)

In the News: Weather reports on TV or radio will frequently use 'neblig' to describe current or forecasted conditions. For example, a weather anchor might say:

Für den Süden Deutschlands wird weiterhin nebliges Wetter erwartet. (Foggy weather is still expected for southern Germany.)

Or in a traffic report:

Vorsicht auf den Autobahnen, es ist örtlich sehr neblig. (Caution on the highways, it is locally very foggy.)

You can see that 'neblig' is a very practical word. Pay attention to weather forecasts and everyday conversations, and you'll quickly get used to hearing and using it.

§ Confusing "neblig" with "Nebel"

Many learners mix up the adjective "neblig" (foggy) with the noun "Nebel" (fog). Remember, they are different parts of speech and used differently in sentences.
DEFINITION
neblig (adjective): foggy; full of or covered with fog.
DEFINITION
der Nebel (noun): the fog.
You use "neblig" to describe something, like the weather or a landscape. You use "Nebel" as a thing itself, often with verbs like "es gibt" (there is) or with prepositions.

Heute ist es sehr neblig. (Today it is very foggy.)

Es gibt viel Nebel am Morgen. (There is a lot of fog in the morning.)

§ Using "neblig" incorrectly with nouns

Sometimes learners try to use "neblig" directly before a noun without the correct grammatical structure. Remember that adjectives often need to be declined in German.

Ich mag den nebligen Morgen. (I like the foggy morning.)

Here, "neblig" gets an "-en" ending because it's a masculine accusative noun. If you just say "neblig Morgen", it's incorrect.

§ Forgetting the umlaut

"Neblig" has an umlaut (two dots) over the 'e'. It's important to include this. If you don't, it might still be understood, but it's not correct German spelling.The word "neblig" comes from "Nebel". You will often find adjectives ending in "-ig" in German. These usually mean "full of" or "like" the noun they come from. For example:
  • sandig (sandy) from der Sand (the sand)
  • sonnig (sunny) from die Sonne (the sun)
  • schlammig (muddy) from der Schlamm (the mud)
Paying attention to these endings and the base nouns can help you remember the correct form of "neblig" and avoid common errors.

趣味小知识

The suffix '-ig' is common in German to form adjectives from nouns, much like '-y' or '-ish' in English.

容易混淆的词

neblig vs Nebel (noun)

Remember, 'Nebel' is the fog itself, 'neblig' describes something as being foggy.

neblig vs wolkig (cloudy)

Don't confuse fog with clouds. 'Neblig' is fog, 'wolkig' is clouds.

neblig vs dunstig (hazy/misty)

While related, 'neblig' implies a denser, more significant fog than 'dunstig'.

语法模式

Adjective endings for 'neblig' change based on gender, number, and case (e.g., 'ein nebliger Morgen', 'die neblige Stadt'). Used with the verb 'sein' (to be) to describe current conditions (e.g., 'Es ist neblig'). Can be used attributively before a noun (e.g., 'der neblige Wald'). Can be used predicatively after a linking verb (e.g., 'Die Sicht ist neblig'). Often combined with adverbs of degree (e.g., 'sehr neblig', 'leicht neblig'). Can be part of compound adjectives or nouns (less common for 'neblig' itself, but good to know for other adjectives).

容易混淆

neblig vs Nebel

Sounds very similar and is the noun form of 'fog'.

Nebel is the noun (fog), neblig is the adjective (foggy).

Der Nebel ist heute Morgen sehr dicht. (The fog is very dense this morning.)

neblig vs wolkig

Another weather adjective, but describes clouds, not fog.

Wolkig means cloudy (with clouds), neblig means foggy (with fog).

Es ist wolkig, aber es regnet nicht. (It's cloudy, but it's not raining.)

neblig vs dunstig

Can sometimes refer to hazy or misty conditions, which are related to fog.

Dunstig implies a lighter haze or mist, while neblig suggests thicker, more obscuring fog.

Am Morgen war es etwas dunstig über dem See. (In the morning it was a bit hazy over the lake.)

neblig vs feucht

Fog often makes things damp, so there's a conceptual link.

Feucht means damp or humid, referring to moisture. Neblig refers specifically to the presence of fog.

Die Luft ist heute sehr feucht. (The air is very humid today.)

neblig vs trüb

Can describe dull or gloomy weather, which might include fog.

Trüb means dull, murky, or gloomy. While fog can make weather 'trüb', 'neblig' specifically describes the fog itself.

Das Wetter ist heute trüb und regnerisch. (The weather is dull and rainy today.)

常见问题

The German word for 'foggy' is neblig. It's an adjective, and it describes something that's full of or covered with fog.

Sure! You could say: 'Heute Morgen ist es sehr neblig.' (This morning it is very foggy.)

While primarily used for literal fog, you might occasionally hear it used metaphorically, for example, to describe a 'foggy memory' (eine neblige Erinnerung), but its main use is for weather.

Good question! Neblig is the adjective derived from the noun der Nebel (the fog). So, if there is Nebel, then it is neblig.

Neblig is considered an A2 level word. This means it's a useful word for basic descriptions.

You can break it down: neb-lig. The 'e' is like the 'e' in 'bed', and the 'ig' ending sounds a bit like the 'ich' sound, but softer, almost like 'ish' at the end.

No, not really. While 'foggy' in English can sometimes mean blurry, in German, neblig specifically refers to actual fog or a fog-like condition in the air. For blurry vision, you'd use different words like 'verschwommen' or 'unklar'.

For actual fog, neblig is the most common and direct word. You might sometimes hear 'dunstig' which means hazy or misty, but it's not quite the same as thick fog.

As an adjective, neblig will typically follow German adjective declension rules. For example: 'ein nebliger Morgen' (a foggy morning), 'eine neblige Nacht' (a foggy night), 'die nebligen Straßen' (the foggy streets).

Yes, absolutely! When talking about the weather, especially in autumn or winter, you'll hear and use neblig quite frequently.

Die Fahrt auf der Autobahn war gefährlich, da es sehr ___ war.

正确！ 不太对。 正确答案： neblig

The sentence indicates a dangerous drive due to poor visibility, which aligns with 'neblig' (foggy). 'Sonnig' (sunny) and 'klar' (clear) would imply good visibility, and 'windig' (windy) doesn't directly describe visibility.

fill blank B2

Am Morgen war es so ___, dass man die Hand vor Augen kaum sehen konnte.

正确！ 不太对。 正确答案： neblig

The phrase 'man die Hand vor Augen kaum sehen konnte' (one could barely see one's hand in front of one's eyes) is a common German idiom to describe very dense fog, making 'neblig' the correct choice. 'Hell' (bright) and 'dunkel' (dark) refer to light conditions, and 'regnerisch' (rainy) describes precipitation, not necessarily visibility.

fill blank B2

Der Bergpfad war sehr ___, was das Wandern erschwerte.

正确！ 不太对。 正确答案： neblig

A 'neblig' (foggy) mountain path would indeed make hiking difficult due to reduced visibility. 'Steinhart' (rock-hard) and 'schlammig' (muddy) describe the ground condition, and 'sonnig' (sunny) would make hiking easier.

fill blank B2

Aufgrund des dichten Nebels waren alle Flüge gestrichen worden. Es war einfach zu ___ zum Fliegen.

正确！ 不太对。 正确答案： neblig

The first sentence clearly states that 'dichter Nebel' (dense fog) caused flight cancellations, so it was 'neblig' (foggy) to fly. 'Kalt' (cold), 'warm' (warm), or 'windig' (windy) might affect flights but aren't directly implied by the context of 'Nebel'.

fill blank B2

Die Landschaft sah mystisch aus, da der ganze Wald ___ war.

正确！ 不太对。 正确答案： neblig

A 'neblig' (foggy) forest would create a mystical appearance due to the obscured views. 'Grün' (green), 'trocken' (dry), or 'hell' (bright) would not inherently create a mystical atmosphere in the same way.

fill blank B2

Nach einem kalten Regen kann es schnell sehr ___ werden, besonders in den Morgenstunden.

正确！ 不太对。 正确答案： neblig

Cold rain can lead to the formation of fog, especially in the mornings, making it 'neblig' (foggy). 'Sonnig' (sunny), 'heiß' (hot), or 'trocken' (dry) are opposite conditions or do not directly follow from cold rain.
