Herzlich willkommen! Welcome to the course!
This exercise is part of the oral part of the A1 and A2 exam at the Goethe institute. Can you present yourself?
This is a downloadable exercise sheet about the nominative and the accusative that you can complete by yourself. The nominative is the subject of the sentence, then comes the verb, and then the object in the accusative. The first page is for masculine nouns, the second page for feminine nouns and the third one for neuter nouns.
This video is a review of the nominative and accusative (with adjectives). Do you feel comfortable using these two cases?
In this video, you will learn some sentences using "können" to say how well you are able to do things and we will review how to say that you like something.
After the modal verbs, here are some more useful irregular verbs: "sehen", "lesen", "sprechen", "schlafen", "essen" and "wissen".
You will find some of the irregular verbs seen in the previous video in this song. Look out for them. You don't need to understand the whole text. You can download the file and listen to the song on Deezer.
What would these people like to do? Use "möchten" and the accusative case.
What can be done and what cannot be done? "Können" in positive and negative statements.
We will read a dialogue in a café, learn the conjunctions "und", "oder", "aber". Say what you like and what you prefer.
Learn the vocabulary you need to talk about your breakfast.
This video is about the plural of feminine nouns.
Do you remember how to conjugate the modal verbs?
In this video, you will learn how to negate sentences using "kein".
And here is a song in which the negation "kein" is used a lot: "Keine Zeit". :) You can download the pdf and listen to the song on the internet.
In this video, you will learn how to say the days of the week, the different times of the day as well as some adverbs of frequency.
This course will give you a stable foundation for your endeavour of learning German.
In video lessons, I will guide you through lectures which are clearly structured, building up on each other and versatile, including not only grammar explanations, but also a lot of video-guided exercises, vocabulary, additional information.
After having completed this second part, you will know how to confidently use the nominative and the accusative cases, you will be able to say more complex sentences using the negation with "kein" or "nicht", subordinate sentences ("weil" and "dass"), some irregular verbs and time indications. Of course, you will also learn a lot of new vocabulary.
Should questions come up while learning with my course, please feel free to ask me, I will be happy to answer them.
After completing parts 1 - 5 of the course, you should be able to complete the A1 exam. The levels A2 and B1 are available on my website.
