Thank you for this enlightening video! Best explanation of 'zu' so far on the internet (if I may be that confident). I also just wanted to find out if the use of 'um', in this sense, is always followed by the accusative.
Hi Chuck, that’s odd. It’s worked for me on iPhone, so you’d think it would work ok on iPad which is essentially the same? There are other links there too (in USD) via Spring that might work better. Might be worth a try, if you’re still looking to get the books. Alles Gute BB
I'm a German teacher & I don't know of any rule that's breaking really. Also, I think it's better to refer to "sets of words" rather than multiple sentences within 1 sentence, as I think the whole thing is just 1 sentence, from an English perspective. I explain a main set of words has the conjugated verb as the 2nd element, whereas a lesser set of words, or "Nebensatz" has the conjugated verb at the end of the set of words - aka at the end of the "clause" ...
Hallo! Danke für den Kommentar! Yes, of course, we’re not breaking any real rules, except for the ones that we have been talking about in this series: that a sentence has to have a subject and a verb. And you are right, the whole thing is one sentence, made up of 2 clauses. However, in any normal ‚Satz‘ - whether a Hauptsatz or a Nebensatz, there is a subject. Here there isn’t one, so a bit different to other one‘s we- in this course-have come across. Alles Gute BB
Each teacher has a different way of teaching and that's what makes them different for students. The way he teaches is so unique & smart with innovative techniques which I really like and I've learned in this way much better.
Quite literally the best video on Infinitiv+zu I’ve ever seen. So we’ll explained. Thank you for this.
Wow, thanks! I’m glad it was useful for you! Alles Gute BB
