season
One of the four parts of the year (spring, summer, autumn/fall, and winter), characterized by typical weather conditions and day lengths.
Der Herbst ist meine liebste Jahreszeit, weil die Blätter so bunt sind.
Autumn is my favorite season because the leaves are so colorful.
This word is made up of 'Jahr' (year) and 'Zeit' (time), connected by an '-es-'. So it literally describes a specific 'time of year'.
Jede Jahreszeit hat ihre eigenen besonderen Feste.
Each season has its own special festivals.
There are exactly four seasons: 'der Frühling' (spring), 'der Sommer' (summer), 'der Herbst' (autumn/fall), and 'der Winter' (winter). These four nouns are all masculine.
Der Winter ist oft die kälteste Jahreszeit in Deutschland.
Winter is often the coldest season in Germany.
When talking about events within a season, you use the preposition 'in' with the dative. For example, you say 'im Sommer' (in summer) or 'in dieser Jahreszeit' (in this season).
In dieser Jahreszeit regnet es besonders häufig.
It rains especially often in this season.
