Answer

Well, actually it depends.. Are you talking about the American "first floor" or the British "first floor"? The American first floor would be "Erdgeschoss" and the British first floor is "erster Stock" ;-)

Answer

Vielen Dank, Alexander.

Answer

Zhao, it's "Erdgeschoss". So "I live on the 1st floor" is "ich wohne im Erdgeschoss"
