Lesson outcome

I can use reflexive pronouns with reflexive verbs, and understand that some verbs need prepositions to link them to a noun.

Show transcript
At the start or in the middle of words, German [g] as in 'gehen' is usually pronounced like the 'g' in English 'go'. When [g] is the final sound in a syllable, it sounds more like 'k', as in 'Flugzeug'. A reflexive pronoun is used instead of an object when the subject is also affected by the action of the verb. Reflexive verbs require reflexive pronouns, which replace the object in the sentence, as in English. Some verbs need prepositions to link them to a noun. Some verbs use different prepositions in English than German.
