**Tips to remember ‘noch nie’:**
– Think of ‘noch’ as still or yet, and ‘nie’ as never. Together they literally mean “not ever before”.
– You can also break it down into sounds. “Noch” sounds like the English word “knock” if you drop the “k”. “Nie” sounds similar to “knee”. So, you could think “knock-knee” as a playful way to remember it.

**Explanations:**
– ‘Noch nie’ directly translates to “never before” and expresses that something has not occurred at any time in the past.

**Other words that mean the same thing:**
– ‘Niemals’ (never ever), though slightly more emphatic, can be used to convey the same meaning as ‘noch nie’.

**Alternate meanings or slang:**
– ‘Noch nie’ is a straightforward phrase with no alternate meanings or slang connotations in the standard German language. It’s used in a literal sense.

**Examples of sentences using ‘noch nie’:**
– “Ich habe noch nie Sushi gegessen.” (I have never eaten sushi before.)
– “Er war noch nie in Deutschland.” (He has never been to Germany before.)
