10. Morgenstund hat Gold im Mund
While in English, we are (well, at least metaphorically) dealing with worms when talking about the benefits of getting up early, in German, we have something a little bit more pleasant to deal with, namely…….GOLD.
‘The early morning hours have gold in its mouth’ that sounds silly..right? But that’s what “Morgenstund hat Gold im Mund” when translated literally.
Example:
Morgen beginnt der Unterricht bereits um 6 Uhr früh! Morgenstund halt Gold im Mund!
Translation:
Tomorrow the lessons start already at 6 am! The early bird catches the worm!
