What locals actually say

Hi, could you tell me where the bus stop is?

Moien, kënnt Dir mir soen, wou de Busarrêt ass?

Moien is the everyday Luxembourgish greeting; Dir keeps the request formally polite, while Busarrêt uses the familiar French-derived arrêt.

Can you pick me up at the station?

Kanns de mech op der Gare ofhuelen?

Gare is the everyday French loan used for a station in Luxembourg, and Kanns de marks the familiar singular Du form.

I’m running late, start without me.

Ech kommen e bëssen ze spéit, fänk einfach ouni mech un.

Ech kommen e bëssen ze spéit is the ordinary local way to say you are late, while einfach works as a colloquial go-ahead particle.

I only have twenty euros on me.

Ech hunn nëmmen zwanzeg Euro dobäi.

The adverb "dobäi" means carrying something with you and signals a natural everyday Luxembourgish phrasing.

I’d like a coffee with milk, please.

Ech hätt gär e Kaffi mat Mëllech, wann ech gelift.

"Ech hätt gär" is the standard Luxembourgish construction for a polite request, while "wann ech gelift" adds local politeness.

My grandma is coming to visit on Sunday.

Meng Bomi kënnt e Sonndeg op Besuch.

"Bomi" is the familiar Luxembourgish word for grandma and gives the sentence a distinctly local family tone.

It’s raining again.

Et reent schonn nees.

"nees" is the Luxembourgish adverb for again and is especially characteristic of local everyday speech.

I’m really fed up today.

Ech hunn haut wierklech d'Flemm.

The idiom "d'Flemm hunn" signals feeling fed up or low in distinctly Luxembourgish wording.
