Common Mistakes

  • Gigabit-Internet bringt mich 1000 Mbps.

    ‘bringen’ takes a dative object, so you need ‘dir’ (to you), not ‘mich’ (me).

  • Gigabit-Internet bringst du 1000 Mbps.

    The verb must agree with the subject ‘Gigabit‑Internet’, which is third‑person singular, not second‑person.

  • Gigabit-Internet bringt dir 1000 Mbit/s.

    While ‘Mbit/s’ is understandable, the standard abbreviation in German marketing is ‘Mbps’. Mixing units can look unprofessional.

    Gigabit internet delivers 1000 Mbps to you.

Cultural Tip

In German advertising, ‘bringt dir’ sounds friendly and customer‑oriented, while ‘liefert’ sounds more technical. Remember that ‘Gigabit’ technically equals 1 Gb/s, which is 1000 Mbps, but some providers round to 1024 Mbps; the phrasing is still acceptable in everyday speech.
