Es gibt folgende Regeln für kurze Vokale:

Sobald du in einer Silbe neben dem Vokal einen Doppelkonsonanten (ck, ll, mm, nn, pp, ss, usw.) siehst, ist das ein Zeichen! Sage das Vokal so kurz es geht. 

Achtung: ein -ss ist ein Zeichen für ein kurzes Vokal, wohingegen das ß dir erlaubt, das Vokal sowie den Konsonanten laut auszusprechen: Hier ein Beispiel zu „ss" und „ß“:

Maße: the dimentions 
Masse/ das Gewicht: the mass 


Viel Spaß (nicht. Spass) beim Hören, Erkennen und Mitmachen:

Mülltrennung schützt Ressourcen und reduziert Abfall. Papiertonnen sammeln Kartons, Zeitungen und Pappe. Glascontainer trennen Flaschen nach Farben: Braun, Grün, Klar. Plastikverpackungen kommen in gelbe Säcke, während Biomüll in Kompostbehältern verrottet. Batterien enthalten Schadstoffe und gehören nicht in Restmüll. Sammelstellen nehmen sie kostenlos an. Alte Kleidung kann Secondhand-Shops helfen oder Textilcontainer füllen. Elektronikschrott gehört in Recyclinghöfe, wo Fachleute Geräte zerlegen. Regelmäßiges Trennen spart Energie, schont Umwelt und vermindert Treibhauseffekte. Müllberge wachsen rasant, doch mit richtigem Handeln verbessern wir die Zukunft. Tipp: Etiketten auf Verpackungen erklären Trennhinweise. Kleinere Schritte bewirken Großes, wenn jeder mitmacht. Die richtige Mülltrennung ist eine wichtige Verantwortung!

Merhaba Türkçe 

Talking About Desserts in Turkish

It's the biggest thing in the night sky, so it's no surprise the moon appears in many English expressions. Here are a few examples.

If someone says they "love you to the moon and back," it means they love you very much, because their love is as large as the distance between the Earth and the moon – an average of 384,000 kilometers.

This expression is used in Guess How Much I Love You, a 2008 children's book by Sam McBratney. It's usually said to romantic partners or people in your family.

If someone is talking "moonshine" it means they're talking about something that isn't real or is foolish. But more often someone will offer you a drink of "moonshine," which is a word used in the US for illegal liquor.

If something doesn't happen very often, it can be said to only happen "once in a blue moon." A "blue moon" isn't really blue – it's either when a second full moon is seen in the same month, or the third full moon when four full moons are seen in the same season.

Both types of blue moon don't happen very often, only about once every 2.7 years.
