OP can also do a
M-x set-language-environment RET German RET
In my machine, when I toggle input method with C-\ and do a M-x
describe-input-method RET, I see this:
,----
| Input method: german-postfix (mode line indicator:DE<)
|
| German (Deutsch) input method
|
| ae -> ä
| aee -> ae
| oe -> ö
| oee -> oe
| ue -> ü (not after a/e/q)
| uee -> ue
| sz -> ß
| szz -> sz
