Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can use 'es gibt', 'da ist', and relative clauses to talk about cultural information and stereotypes.

Show transcript
'Es gibt' means ‘there is’ and ‘there are’. It is a general statement that something exists. Use 'es ist' and 'da ist' to point out what there is in a specific place at a specific moment in time. Relative clauses add information about the noun in a main clause without starting another sentence. Use the indefinite pronouns 'jemand' (someone) and 'niemand' (no-one) instead of a noun.
