Day 17: The sentence bracket — past tense, part two

from Day One German | Beginner News-Focused German Course

Get the learning sheet and homework at www.linguawire.com/dayone.Today is a milestone: your first two-sentence German news story. Felix and Leonie use an earthquake report to show how the German past tense works in real sentences — and how the “sentence bracket” opens near the start and closes at the end. You’ll also dismantle Erdbeben as a compound word. Today’s story is: Ein Erdbeben hat die Region in der Nacht getroffen. Viele Menschen haben ihre Häuser verloren. Hosted on Acast.
