"Ich bin so glücklich."

Translation: I am so happy.

Is there a way to tell when glücklich means happy vs lucky?

[mizinamo]

It essentially always means "happy".

"lucky" is usually described as "having luck", i.e. Glück haben.

"You were lucky" = Du hast Glück gehabt

[Serhat256]

What is the function of so in German sentence.is it intensifier like English one

[babyswithrabies]

i am very happy? why in the world wouldn't this be accepted.

[stepintime]

That's "Ich bin sehr glücklich".

[Gene618670]

I'm lucky this way? Warum nicht?

[quis_lib_duo]

= Ich habe auf diese Art (und Weise) Glück.

In German:

Glück haben = be lucky
glücklich sein = be happy

[stepintime]

...and "I'm happy this way / the way it is" would more likely be "ich bin glücklich so" (instead of "ich bin so glücklich").

When I read "Ich bin so glücklich", I definitely assume that person means "I am so happy", because while "I'm happy the way it is" wouldn't be wrong, it would be an unusual way to phrase it.
