Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can say what there is in different places by creating complex sentences which use different word orders and a variety of adverbs.

Show transcript
[ig] is pronounced soft as in 'ich'. In some regions it is pronounced hard as in 'ik'. 'Viel' means 'a lot (of)'; 'viele' means 'lots of'. Use 'viel' with uncountable nouns and 'viele' with countable nouns. Put adverbs at the start of a statement for emphasis. This triggers word order 2. Adverbs of time are often the last thing in an English sentence, but not the last thing in a German sentence.
