Nose in German 🇩🇪

die Nase info.

To remember the German word “die Nase,” you can think of a character with a notable nose, such as Pinocchio, whose nose grows when he tells a lie. You might then imagine him saying “Das ist die Nase,” which can remind you that “die Nase” means “the nose” because they both start with ‘N.’

“Die Nase” is a feminine noun in German (hence the article “die”), and directly translates to “the nose” in English. In anatomy or when describing someone’s face, “die Nase” is the correct term.

Other words or phrases that mean the same thing in different contexts or in a medical environment might include:
– “Der Riechkolben” – referring to the olfactory bulb, a brain structure involved in the sense of smell.
– “Der Nasenrücken” – meaning the bridge of the nose.
– “Das Nasenloch” – meaning a nostril.
– “Die Geruchsorgan” (though less common) – referring to the organ of smell.

In terms of slang or idiomatic expressions, “die Nase voll haben” means to be fed up with something, similar to saying “to have it up to here” in English. “Die Nase vorne haben” means to be ahead or in the lead, similar to “to have a nose in front” in a race.

Examples of sentences using “die Nase”:
– Ich habe mir die Nase gestoßen. (I bumped my nose.)
