“Wéi?” – A simple word with surprising meanings


Episode 83


When you start learning Luxembourgish, you quickly meet "Wéi".

➡️ Wéi geet et? (How are you?)

➡️ Wéi heeschs du? (What’s your name?)

But here's the twist: "Wéi" means much more than just “how”.

💡 It can ask how long, how often, which, how much, and even what time is it?

👉 Examples:

🕒 Wéi vill Auer ass et? – What time is it?

🍰 Wéi een Dessert wëlls du gär? – Which dessert would you like?

🏃‍♀️ Wéi oft gees du lafen? – How often do you go running?

🎙️ This week’s podcast episode unpacks the everyday ways this tiny word works — and how to use it naturally in conversation.
