1. What you'll learn in Unit 2: Welcome to Unit 2. It's so nice to have
you here again. And this unit, we are going
to talk about our homes, setting them up and moving
from one to the other. Here are just some of the things you will
learn in Unit 2. How to correctly use the changeable prepositions with either the data or
the accusative. How to say that something is standing somewhere
or that something is going somewhere to
sell or buy furniture. Talking about your neighbors. We will repeat all
we know so far about the data and
accusative case. We will also repeat the
polite conductivity Tsai, and learn how to make
a good suggestion. As you can see, many things to learn and no time to waste. So let's jump right then.
2. 2.01 Der Umzug (The move): At 0. This is potassium. Natalie gate IN Yana
moonshine judean. And seed on z had shown
ins, tolerate cut fondant. Z is nist cause about on Hen Natalie C to Z hat, we are in the belly in and buy. I buy yet seeds enough mention on z had shown IN a warning, funding and gamete it. Z conduct align a woman above fertilised much dizzy of iron
and MIT per Warner order, MSBA warn of unfinished when
z is not nationalization. About Devonian is 0 sugar and our seamless course z is in spite in stock In
einem whole house. I skipped auf einen. I'll talk about in
Vietnam Italian niche, Cao Huan Zhi can
be happening even. Z hat I encloses wound CEMA as Zia hell owned a
memorial. Field is on. The cushion, is glycine even. Skip to that soon oxide CEMA, I incline us on to iron
causes and I embodied soma. Much Usha does best is z hat auf einen Balkan. The varName is an INR Zou, paul logger and Danny
are formed sand. And our UX bunch dots here
on Natalie seat by z. And our university it
in mentions to Dionne, Mr. does this ionized their
best and endocrine gland. Z, z, z i in place. Then the cannon learn and
TLS in a party muffin.
3. 2.02 Wohin kommt der Sessel? (Where does the armchair go?): Natalie, C to Z will feel fun. Name and find his own SOC. Hello, is Sienna mentioned
on the ends, helped me? Hey, Natalie, possesses
state here in diameter. Ones are listings. So Stalin, Teller dense ESL
button even does fence time. By uneven them fence, touch the throne debtors
standard intestine and even detour. By nibble and dare to
overstate the lambda. The lambda uneven does click on the bus MIT
ambition to have. So feel a Boucher de ligand
gets the ala of the embed. A stellar industry God about Indian Playgirl
is shown there. Spiegel, then stylish
than Spiegel nib and does bet by nib and embed. Is there hang
stellar speaker dan, I'm for how psychomotor
on who does build hanger does build on-demand Hubert
aspect about you, but embed Hank shown d lambda. Then instead us build better off TQM order of
their promoter state. It's their Spiegel. These are worn longest,
einfach, so cline. Okay, let's analyze the
conversation because maybe you noticed something a
little bit weird happening. Tell densa cells. Me, Ben does fence about nib and dim fence
starch the throne. They attach dentist
than a nib and D2. About nib and dare to
your state, D lambda. Y is the articles suddenly magically changing and
what is happening here. You will find out all about
it in the next lesson.
4. 2.03 Wechselpräpositionen, Teil 1 (Changeable prepositions, Part 1): Okay, So this will be
one of the parts of the German grammar
where you will sometimes just have
to ask why German? Why are you doing this to us? So I hope that you have a little bit of patients
for this lesson and don't freak out
if it doesn't go completely smoothly right
from the beginning. So please relax and try to trust me that I will
get you through it. So that being said, I present to you the German
changeable prepositions. As you saw in the last lesson, sometimes the case
will suddenly change, although the
preposition stay the same and the sentence
just slightly changed. Like we had here, for example, cell bitten nib and thus fence stuff about
nib and the infant's touched each on their tissue
or done she does build, but often Tish about auf dem
tissue state yets divisor. The prepositions States
this same nib and whatever. But something must
have changed, right? Because the case changed. Nib and thus fence the knee been deem fenced off Dane Tish. I'll deem What is it? Can you see it maybe. Do you know maybe
which cases we use? Thus fence data, Dame fan STA, thus fence that is accusative and deem fence that is data. Then Tish is accusative
and deem test data. But why is this
happening when we have the same preposition in
front of it, DO whole time. Like the title of our
lesson already said, we are going to learn that
changeable prepositions, D, voxel preposition C11. They are called
like this because they can change the case
they're going with. Sometimes they will go with the accusative case and
sometimes with the data. And the only difference will be whether it is moving or not. This may sound very similar
now, but it's true. Look, Stele, it ends
as cell button nib and thus fence to put the arm
chair next to the window. There is a movement involved. Putting the armchair is
traveling next to the window. It's moving in the
direction of the window. So the window is
in the accusative. And please, excuse my
ridiculous drawings. I know that something is way out of perspective at the armchair. It was a quick drawing
to help you understand. And then we have nib and
infants sta states that is next to the window is
or is standing the desk. It's standing there, not moving. So it's stage of I know that
this can be very confusing. So to make it more clear, I am going to include a few
examples from a course about the German cases where my dog yoga helped me
to explain the concept.
5. 2.04 Wechselpräpositionen, Teil 2 (Changeable prepositions, Part 2): The most important question
and this lesson will be, is it moving or not? The vaccine opposite C11 or
changeable prepositions or two-way prepositions are
in our nib and Hinter, UBA on top for submission. And all of these
prepositions are local ones, meaning that they will tell
us the location of something. Let's explain each of them. Auf, meaning on,
and in this case, it's on a flat surface. You'll realize later
why I mentioned this. Is auf dem Tish. Nib pen. Next to the bile is a nib and their tasks Hinter behind. The hairball is hinted embed. Riba above. Thereby is IBA demand in meaning, well, in there is any minor hand into below. Double its own tied him Tish. Four in front of their
bile is, for them honed. Solution between the
bile is the tuition, the marooned on the Mir
and, and meaning on. But in this case, it's on a vertical surface like the wall or the blackboard. Does bid, is an avant. All of these sentences
are in the data, but all these prepositions can also be used with
the accusative case. Remember what we said, two-way prepositions or
changeable prepositions. Let's see what the sentences would look like in
the accusative. Each name in the hand. Initially you get them back. Often Tish, extended
imbalance, nib and detests. They are fed him.
Uber den haunt, hinted us bet. Hva are fed him on TED into ish. Extended symbol for iodine hand. If ligand and BAL
session then hold on. The mesh is hanged as built and the dividend. I hope you noticed the
differences and these sentences. We use the date of case
with these prepositions. If the object, in this case the ball was just
standing there, it was static and not moving. But if the ball was moving, changing its location
and position, it was in the accusative case. We can try to
remember it this way. Dating has the question vivo, meaning, where we will
draw our target here. Something is in a specific spot. It's static, it's data. And acquisitive will be VO Hin. Where to. Accusative
means action. Something is moving. We can draw an arrow here
showing the action and the movement. All clear. Let's look at some
more examples. Thus, glass state auf dem Tish. Here it's static and it's
the date of case Them dish a stellar dust
glass out of DNA Tish. In this case, it's moving. And that's why in the
accusative, they are honed. Ist auf dem bet. The dog is quite static here. He's on the bed. So data, their hand
cranked out despot. In this case, the dog is moving and that's why in
the accusative, the hairball is in a minor hand. Here is quite static. That's why data is she named the imbalance
in mind and hand. Here, the ball is changing its position and
that's why accusative. This thing usually causes
some trouble for learners. But I think that
it's actually quite straightforward and
easy to understand. And action accusative
just being their data. Remember that this
concept applies only when these specific prepositions
don't confuse. Now, every sentence with a little movement
with accusative, or every time something is standing somewhere
with the data, just with these prepositions.
6. 2.05 Verb + Präposition + Kasus (Verb + preposition + case): So by now you learned that there are some
tricky prepositions which will sometimes go with the data and sometimes
with the accusative case. And you get it that
with a dative it will be static and
with the accusative, there will be some
movement involved. To make it a little
bit easier for you, just by taking a
look at the verb, you will often be able to determine whether
its movement or not, meaning which case to use. In this lesson, we
will learn some of the often used verbs used with
the vaccine opposite C11, and which case
they will require. The verb can help us. So lots to determine whether
it's static or moving, because, well, the verb tells us whether it's
static, we're moving. And these verbs will
often come in pairs. The first pair we will use
will be stellen und Dann. Two similarly looking
verbs that will mean a slightly different thing
and ask for a different case. In means to put or to place. And as the meaning of the
verb tells you by itself, it's going to be a movement. So stellen to put plus voxel, preposition
plus acquisitive. For example, a stellar
dust boot, often Tish. I placed the book on the table. Tisch. Accusative or Airtel to the slang certainly
been does Fen sta, he puts the plant
next to the window. Does Fan stuff accusative
or via stellen, the mobile industry, CEMA. We put the furniture
in the room. Thus CEMA, acquisitive. In all these situations, something is moving
somewhere next to something in something
or on something. And that second something
is in the accusative. And its counterpart
is going to stand, or sometimes translated
simply as to be. So, although these two
verbs sound quite similar, they actually mean a
completely different thing. And we'll go with
a different case. Stand to stand, plus Vg. So preposition plus d2. Thus both of them Tish
or deep flank state, may bend them, fence
or steer emphysema. Yeah, it does
finish. And remember that M is actually
includes theme contracted. Okay, if all of this is clear, let's take a look at
another pair and ligand. Ligand to lay or also to
put or place and action. So going with the accusative, a Schlager Dust Bowl, often Tish, I am laying or putting the
book conduct table. Just so you see it can be used sometimes similarly,
like Stellan, the cow licks skinned and thus bit later, these are shrunk. And its counterpart
is going to lie. Not to lie like Kali, not say that truth, but why? Lie down? It's just laying
there so it's static, so it yes, data. Thus bool leaped off Tim, Tim. The book is lying on the desk. You are not reading it
as just laying there. This one is similar to stay and it can be standing
or lying somewhere. That skinned, leaked, embed. Mom put it to bed in
the last example. So now it's lying and
hopefully sleeping. The kilometer legal
nib and embed. So if someone is not very tidy, this may seem silly, but we will also
mentioned the verb xi1 to be the verb itself. We'll go with the date
of case when used with vaccine composites
you want and why? Well, it tells you that
something is there. It's not moving anywhere. Does book is auf dem dish. The cow is in, there. Isn't knee bending cuboidal. One verb that will often
be used in these examples, but that won't tell us exactly which case it goes
with is hanging. To hang. It can mean boat that you
are hanging something. The actions so acquisitive, but also that something is
hanging, it's hanging there. So data, since that in both cases the verb
will look the same. So we want know which
case it goes with. We will have to look at the exact meaning
of the sentence. Does bend, Hank and DevOps. The picture is
hanging on the wall. A hanger thus bit on-demand. I'm hanging the
picture on the wall. See the first sentences, weather data and the second
one that the acquisitive. So here are the verbs we
mentioned one more time. Just keep in mind
that these are just a few which I think
might be useful. Feel free to look for and discover other useful verbs
that you want to use. And feel free to ask if you
have problems with any of them or are not exactly sure
how to use them correctly. So we had with the
accusative, again, hanging with the data
design and also hanging.
7. 2.06 Rein, raus, rauf (In, out, up): When come to D
bloom up between Z Rhine indices TMA on the
forehand gate there, moon thing in the gauss, buy-in vows or into or UEBA. In this lesson,
you will find out what to do with
these and others. Similar, silly sounding words. There are fewer
strange sounding, but very useful words in German. They will be used to tell us
the direction of movement. Let me explain. Comes from the word hacker house,
which means out. In German, is used to tell us that something
or someone is or should go out named in middle
of our take the trash out. It gets Klaus, I'm
going out now. A clumped glacier house. He'll be out in a second around MittMedia
outwards you meaning get out is the
opposite of house, meaning in, as in, coming in or going in. Comm line. Come on in. As this cut, we again vine. It's called, we're
going and SQL Rhine. I want an dass es
telecom TEA vine. The armchair goes here inside
the valve and the quanta. These two mean to
go up and down. 12 is up and Honda is down. And you can see the similarities with some of the vertex
v already learned, like auf into, on and below
the Gatehouse on Toronto. The pressure goes up and down. V isn't open, often
Balkan conduct 12. Here is this Mitsuko SK
quanta AIR gated South. And VIA again junta, he's going up and
we're going down. Maybe you already noticed the biggest difference
between vows, GYN of alpha and verts
similar to them like ours IN, OUT or is that our, our accrue, Gauss Klein and others will
be used when something is going or moving or being
moved in that direction. So it will always include a dislocation from
one place to another. Also, they don't
ask for an object. They already tell
us the direction. And that is enough, which is great because you don't have to think
about the case. So for example, thus, Kent is on Todd inbound. The kid is under the tree with the day to day
Baum not moving right? Or come r1A, come down. Movement is involved. You should come down and we don't need an
object in any case. Tells us enough down. The last one we will
mention here is really about o. U bar means over. Lake, for example, come up, come over, or UBA. Move over, slide over. Html, riba. I'll go over there. And here is a little
additional trick. If you want to be even more
specific about these verts, you can expand it
like this here, here, or hint there. So for example,
that UBA over here, who UEBA means over here, and Hindi means over there. Or would have auf up here, hin auf up there. So here will be moving in the direction closer to here
or towards the speaker. And hin, moving in the direction away from here or more
away from the speaker. That's why you will also
often hear Common Z. Have I come inside or
more specific combo here inside or escape his house? I'm going outside. Outside, they're away from you. All. These versions help
you to be extra specific, but the location and
direction of the movement. So here are the words we
mentioned one more time. If rouse out the Rhine in a valve up on top down
and UBA over there. And we also mentioned the extra helpful and
specific prefixes, hen, over here and over the mountains.
8. 2.07 Möbelanzeigen (Furniture ads): D and psi means add. And the movable is, I hope you already
know furniture. So in this lesson we
will take a look at a few mobile and
Tiger furniture ads. So here we are at eBay
client and Sidon, which literally
means little ads. Let's see what types of
furniture ads we can find here. Could shoot. So phaco often via fair Calvin on Southern Christian
by via on CNN. The CATIA is benign and
Gooten source stand on the carpet. Inclusive electrode aerator,
crew shrunk medical clear. The church Pula on
head back often. Cushy. Second phase is 400 bar. Let's check some of the
verbs we have here. Fair cow often is
of course, to sell. One CAN, we mentioned
this is to move. And we have a vial
because we are selling, because we're moving VFA
cow often via, via OMC. And the verb is at the end of the sentence because
of while, right? Then we have, in einem Gooten social bond means in a good
state or in a good condition. Niche is nothing is broken. Kaput, broken. Inclusivity is something
you will often see in ads. It means including,
were included. And here we have a lot of kitchen appliances you
hopefully already know, like dad, QD shrunk, does give free alpha. They are the xiache Beulah, their head, and their back. Often price is 400 bar is also something you
will often see in ads, which means that the
price is negotiable. You can try to lower it a little and hopefully get
it for cheaper. You can see that when
people are writing ads, they're not very poetic. Sentences are short and
stretch to the point. And they're basically
just trying to say the information as simple
and as fast as possible. So don't be worried if you
see very short sentences, maybe without verbs or
other parts missing. That's the way to do it here. Okay, let's check
out another add. This one is for a
couch and armchair. Zafar on Xofigo as tau slept, on diagnosis visits
and on Shaphan. Is Zach and nucleus. Man become Dao or circus. And that's all set to
ODA Einstein, mHealth, lish, zag would Haydn, niche cow per household.
This was short. Here's some of the vocabulary. Eigen, to be suitable
for something. It was that UBA common to get something whether
it's something additional. Him set meaning in a set or
some individual or separate. Yeah. Headless available. Good, a heightened
similar meaning as in Gooten sushi brand, meaning in good condition. And something that will also often come up in ads for
some specific things. Niche cow household,
non-smoking household. I know nobody's
selling furniture with pictures this
nice and adds, but it's the only ones I have, so let's just pretend. Okay. The next one is called
Don't call Cloud Komodo, dark gray cabinet for coffee, Dunkin color, commodify or one CMA or dash laughs a moment, hi cause and shrub Latin. Macias huts were convinced. Novartis and owner FAFSA. Guys, now I'm biofilm. So here we had D-sharp bladder. This is a useful word we
still haven't mentioned. I think it means drawer. Thus, how would my CVS halts? It's solid or massive
report count been noticed, almost not used at all. Calm means hardly,
barely or rarely. Novartis is another word that will tell us the
state of something. No advantage, meaning
almost like new. The cut, our scratches, so on a cut without them. And also something
often seen in ads. Clients, not fair I in bio Hong Kong is an
agreement or deal. So this means that the
price can be agreed upon. Next, add arbeit sluggish. For calcium ion, an
ion arbeit sluggish, relish and denying a cough Taba. Hundreds the moon from
sixth centimeter, quieter, 100 centimeter,
her fishtail Bonn. In Germany, we use
the centimeter and meter as unit of measurement
for the size of something. And although in German,
it's dad centimeter, the short version will be
CME as it is in English. So here we have Langer, length, width, and height. And fetched Alba
means adjustable. And our last ad for
today, collider shrunk. I'll talk cause
satellite or shrunk. Households. Midsize sheep to your client a bugle bed
and that's who fake-out, MIT, giggling and gcloud
above fall from tunes fish, Z sub Holland and Evan Toile
de Montage movement dish. So in German, we say households, which literally means from what? She bacteria is a sliding door. She means to push
or to slide that. Sophia coughed, we already said something is sold, vetted. Clyde a bugle are
the clothes hangers, You know, this thing. The gcloud for our traces of usage and giving means
little or small. Food zones. Fish is functional. Zips up hula is
something that will often be seen with big
pieces that are being sold. It means that you have
to come and pick it up yourself and arrange
everything about it. And even to alert the montage, meaning that it's possible you
will have to dismantle it, whether it being too heavy or maybe not fitting
through the door. I hope that this can help you to find everything you need for your apartment or maybe to sell all the stuff you
are not using anymore.
9. 2.08 Die Nachbarn (The neighbours): Let's say that you are expecting a package and you know that
you won't be home to get it. You want to ask your neighbors to take
the package for you. In this lesson, we will
learn how to be extra polite with your neighbors and ask them for a little favor. Here is the friendly note
Natalie left for her neighbors. I hope you can read
her handwriting. Hello Lee been upon my
enamel is not wholly owned. Hba1c coalition. The wound via B and
Sidon stock IN gets on. It's hubba, I'm gonna kind of Bhutanese Hotez ALL IN package. And it had been me, I didn't launch tool
bashed out about each binominal agonists to house the Clintons EBIT or does
packet for Michigan. Even since Natalie
was so polite, I'm sure their
neighbors will have no problems and taking
her package for her. Let's check out some phrases
and expressions she used. First, let's just mention the most important
word of this lesson, which is of course, the Nakba, the Nakba Lun De Nussbaum. And here are some other ones. No Analyst recently and yes, it's closely connected
to the noise, which means new insight and
stock on the second floor. But you already notice, right? And remember the German ordinal
numbers there AS steady, it's vital that they have
fear to defind FTA and so on. They get the ending t. And
then after 20 the ending stay, they had sciencey stuff. That's fine. Try say stead unknown fields each
step. Remember it. Great. I CAN to move in. And we also have CN to
move and CAN to move out. Remember that all these
verbs are separable verbs. H or H been OEM gets organ. Each bin OEM gets older. Age. It's been outskirts organ. Z, C, z is the ion gets all. The bit, is a request or plead I in a bit uneven them to
have a request for someone. For example, here, Natalie says a Shabbat in a bit
and z thus packet, the package, thus
packet, so uncommon, the package should arrive
and check this out. I'm packet fear miss
a package for me. A hub and Mia, I know extolled by
Mia, miss, miss me. What's the difference?
Remember the pronouns in the different cases. Miss is in the accusative
and MEA in the data. Fewer. Miss for me, habit, me rubbish tells I
ordered for myself. And just a few more
bearish talon to order next to house
design to not be at home. Thus packet you by Neyman
to take or to accept, in this case the package
and content z better. Could you please? Here we used the cognitive
XVI of the modal verb canon. Hello. My name is not wholly owned. A spinless in the womb. Fear be M cyclin
stock IN gets on it. How about I neckline
of Bhutanese cytosol? I'm package fur mich Ich habe
mir uninstall bashed out. It's been anathema to
organists, to Hausa. Continuity better does
packet for Michigan even.
10. 2.09. Könntest du? (Could you?): As we saw in the last lesson, it's very important to maintain good relationship
with your neighbors because you will have to share some things and sometimes
even help each other out. In a good habit. Sijang, Sudan enough
ban hub and to have a good relationship with
or towards your neighbors. Let's see what are some of the ways to be polite
when talking to the neighbors and
how to ask them for a little neighborly
favor here and there. Let's see how Natalie would ask her neighbors
for a simple favor. Contest to me a bit timid. These Acosta here have
Clinton's EMEA better, the Noma, foam house,
my stuff, VBN. Father couldn't save life. Minor blooming diesen. She used the modal verb Conan
in the quantitative side, translated as could you? Let's quickly repeat what that looks like in the
question sentences. Quinta is, could I? Yeah, sounds maybe
a little bit weird, but let's just mention
it for the sake of the conjunction or
if you'd like to talk to yourself, close. Thus VAB, I'm NDA does that says the verb at the end of
the sentence because Cornyn is still a
modal verb and demands that contest to Could
you come to a a z or S? Content via content, yeah. Content z or the formal
version, content z. So we will have Clinton's
EMEA Health fun or Quintus to me adenoma given or contains
AID bloom and Gleason. Natalie invited a
few of her friends over to celebrate moving
into her new place, but they were maybe a
little bit too loud, so one of the neighbors came to complain and ask
them to be quieter. Quantity a bit allies design. The better the mosaic lies are stellen can to deorbit
a niche so loud. Again, here we use the modal verb colonel
in the active site. And of course, the verb is
at the end of the sentence.
11. 2.10 Vorschläge machen (Making suggestions): In the last lesson, we saw how to ask
someone for a favor or had to tell someone what
to do or what not to do. In this lesson, we want
to explore how to make suggestions about things you could do together with someone. Volume via does
Lenin lessons Lenin, wie man einen flash-lag MAFFT. If you paid attention
in the intro, you already saw
that two main ways to make a suggestion we
are going to mention here, vol and via meaning
should we, and lessons. Let's, it will mostly be used with the
first-person plural vi, because you are
asking your inviting someone to do something
together with you. Let's see how to build
these sentences. Lessons CAN VDS is
that's a burden. Volume via habitat. So Xamarin Show women gain volume via fertilized
IN a Pitt cyber stellen, Weil, and via Vitamix. In these sentences we use
the modal verb volun, and like you have to
do with modal verbs, another infinitive verb at
the end of the sentence also noticed the long separable
verb, Vitamix Han here. H Mahabharata, do mast vita. But volume via Vitamix. The verb is in the infinitive
at the end of the sentence. Lessons hotel IN picnic, Mohan. Lessons in skin again, lessons I oppose him often. The verb lessen means
let's leave or allow. In these types of
sentences, it will, just like the modal
verb be used with another verb in the infinitive at the end of the sentence. So you don't have to
learn anything new. Just use what you learned
from the modal verbs. So we can say
volume via Vitamix, less on slide hammer. So the big question is why
it's volun via but less? If we are talking
about the same people. Because of our land, via. Via isn't denominator
and less owns. Owens is the accusative
of the pronoun via us, volume via DSA like
lessons Schloss muffin.
12. What you learned in Unit 2: Natalie moved to
her new apartment and we will move as
well to the next unit. Yes. That was it for this one. Don't forget to repeat all the things we
learned in this unit.
