What It Means
This phrase is as simple as it gets. It describes the movement of air. You use it when you feel a breeze. It is the literal way to say "the wind blows." Think of it as the most basic weather tool in your vocabulary. You are just stating a fact about nature. It is a building block for describing the world around you.
How To Use It
You usually start with the subject Der Wind. Then you add the verb weht. You can add adjectives like stark (strong) or leicht (light). It follows standard German sentence structure perfectly. You do not need any fancy grammar here. Just subject, verb, and maybe an adverb. It is very beginner-friendly. You can also change the tense easily. If it happened yesterday, you say Der Wind wehte. If you want to use the perfect tense, say Der Wind hat geweht. It is a very flexible building block for your German.
When To Use It
Use it for daily weather updates. It is perfect for small talk with neighbors. Use it when describing a day at the sea. It works well in stories and poems too. If you see a flag moving, you can use it. If your hair is a mess, blame it on this. It is great for setting a scene. Imagine you are writing a postcard. You might write, "The wind blows, and the sun shines." It is a classic, peaceful image. You can also use it when sailing or flying a kite. It is a very practical phrase for outdoor hobbies.
When NOT To Use It
Do not use it for a hair dryer. Use föhnen for that instead. Avoid it for air conditioning units. For those, say the AC is an or läuft. It is strictly for natural air movement. Also, do not use it for human breath. If you blow out a candle, use pusten. If you are talking about a draft inside a house, Germans usually say Es zieht instead of using wehen.
Cultural Background
Germans are obsessed with the weather. It is the ultimate icebreaker. In Northern Germany, wind is a constant companion. They even have many words for different winds. Saying Der Wind weht is a safe conversation starter. It is polite and neutral. You will hear it on every news channel. It is part of the national identity of Lüften (airing out the house). Germans love fresh air, even in winter. They will open windows wide to let the wind blow through. This is almost a sacred ritual in German households. If you want to fit in, comment on the wind. It shows you are paying attention to the environment.
Common Variations
You might hear Es weht ein frischer Wind. This can mean a cool breeze. It can also mean a "change of pace" at work. Another common one is windig sein. That just means "it is windy." You can also say Der Wind pfeift. That means the wind is whistling loudly. If the wind is extremely strong, you might move up to stürmen.
