English Translation

Hey there, hey there we make a great pair, great pair, I don't know.

German Translation

Hallo dort, hallo dort wir sind ein tolles Paar, tolles Paar, ich weiß nicht.

Hallo dort, hallo dort

This is very much a literal translation, literally saying hello there or hey there. In german the word order is confusing. Time , Manner, Place. As you can see here i think the manner goes first as there is no time and the place is there and so will go second.

Hallo= hello Dort = there

wir sind ein tolles Paar, tolles Paar

We make a great pair, great pair. of course in German you have your masc/fem/neutral so for this it will be ein, which I think is masc/neutral. sind is a form of the conjugation 'sein'.

ich bin- I am

du bist- You are (informal,plural?)

er/sie/es ist- he/she/it is

wir sind- we are

ihr seid- you are (formal, plural)

Sie sind- You are (formal)

wir sind = we are

ein tolles Paar= a great pair

ich weiß nicht

This means I don't know. weiß means means white and in this case means i'm not white or I don't know-. If anyone puts nicht in a sentence it turns into a negative sentence. For example:

Ich nicht gern karrotes gegessen.

That means I don't like to eat carrots.

the word order is sorta mixed up but I have forgotten why

ich weiß nicht= i dont know.

PRONUNCIATION!!!

Hallo [ha-llo] dort [do-rt]

wir sind [veer zind] ein tolles Paar [eye-n toll-s P-ar] ich weiß nicht [i-hh v-eye-s nikt]

In German you pronounce every letter, and its like saying something slower for someone when they cant understand.

even a number like

siebenundsechzig (67)

literally means 7 and 60

ie= ee

ei= eye

sieben [zee bun] und sechzig[zekzig]

you see how they pronounce every letter?

i just wanted to mention a few things ^•^:

the "hey there" part can actually not really be translated to "hallo dort" because it doesn't really make sense even though it is the literal translation of "there" ! but as we all know german is complicated haha, so you can use the word "leute" which basically means "people" to make the meaning of "there" in this case clearer !

and also you can turn the pronounciation of 67 (siebenundsechzig) to a soft "ch" sound instead of "k" sound to sound more fluent (not many people pronounce it that harshly hihi) !^^ so: "zee bun und zechzich" ~ (i also know that the "ch" is hard for foreigners to pronounce 🥺)
