Of course! Let's break down what your friend said. Based on her message, your friend's cat, Lisa, had **three** babies. Here is a detailed translation and explanation of her text: **Original German:** > Omg!! hast du mittbekommen was Lisa auf Insta geteilt hat? Ihre Tatze hat 3 Junge bekommen - die kleinen sehen sooo süß aus. Ich will auch eine Katze :((( **English Translation:** > "OMG!! Did you see what Lisa posted on Instagram? Her cat has had 3 babies - the little ones look sooo cute. I want a cat too :(((" --- ### Breakdown of the Key Phrase The most important part is: **"Ihre Tatze hat 3 Junge bekommen"** Let's look at each word: * **Ihre:** Her * **Tatze:** This is a cute, informal German word for a cat's paw. In this context, it's used as a term of endearment for the cat itself, similar to saying "her little furball" or "her kitty." * **hat... bekommen:** has... had / has... given birth to * **3:** Three * **Junge:** This is the plural of "Junges," which means "young ones" or "babies." When referring to animals, it specifically means a litter of young. So, the phrase literally translates to "Her kitty has had 3 young ones." ### How to Congratulate Her Now that you know it's three kittens, you can write a lovely message! Here are a few options, from simple to more enthusiastic. #### **Option 1: Simple and Sweet (in English)** > "Oh my goodness, I just saw your message! Huge congratulations to Lisa on her three new kittens! I can only imagine how adorable they are. So exciting!" #### **Option 2: More Enthusiastic (in English)** > "Ahhh, three kittens! That's the best news ever! Congratulations to you and Lisa! A whole little crew of tiny, cute fur babies. You must be over the moon. Please post more pictures soon!" #### **Option 3: In German (if you want to impress her!)** > "Oh wie schön! Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu den drei kleinen Kätzchen! Ich bin mir sicher, die sind unglaublich süß. Viel Spaß mit der neuen kleinen Familie! ❤️" > > *(Translation: "Oh how lovely! Heartfelt congratulations on the three little kittens! I'm sure they are incredibly cute. Have lots of fun with the new little family! ❤️")* You can't go wrong with any of these! The key is to acknowledge the "three" kittens to show you understood the great news.
