The alphabets in German are quite similar to English, but the language has additional characters that make pronunciation unique. The umlauted vowels (ä, ö, ü) and the Eszett (ß) are key differences that learners should focus on. These special letters affect pronunciation and word meaning. For instance, "Mutter" means "mother," while "Mütter" (with ü) means "mothers." Learning these differences early can help avoid confusion in conversations. A helpful practice is listening to native speakers and repeating words to get used to the sounds. German is a structured language, and once you master the alphabet, pronunciation becomes easier.
