Lesson outcome

I can nominalise infinitive verbs and use plural nouns when reading and translating information about speakers of multiple languages.

Show transcript
To make single syllable feminine nouns plural, add '–e' and an umlaut where possible. To make nouns ending in '–nis' plural, add –se. To make some neuter nouns plural, add '-(e)n'. Use any German infinitive as a noun by nominalising it as a neuter noun. To turn noun-verb phrases to nouns, create compound nouns.
