Lesson 2.2. - Wir machen Pause.

In this lesson Nik tells Paul: "Aber wir machen am Brandenburger Tor Pause." While Nik & Paul are analysing this sentence they change a little bit the sentence and they say instead "Aber wir machen Pause am Brandenburger Tor." Can we use both ways? Is there a rule what comes first and what last or is there not? From the lessons I had so far, I understood that when making a sentence and we have to use a verb with an auxiliary verb, i.e. brauche, möchte, will, etc., the infitive verb, i.e. essen, drinken, gehen etc., goes always at the end. Is that right? So in this case, what goes first and what goes last? Please explain? Danke Schön! Paulina

Normally, how many days does it take to get an answer to a question that we pose? Because I asked several things to be explained and still I got no reply from anybody. Isn´t it supposed, the people of Rocket Team to give us a reply on these questions? Thanks.

I've posted a question earlier and got a prompt answer. Looking through the other posts it seems as if most of the questions get answered rather quickly. Maybe just bad timing?

Well, might be but if you could have a look at my posts you would see that most of them are unanswered. Is it bad timing for all? Might be! Sometimes, I think and I consider myself a lucky one because am married to a German guy. So, most of the times, when I need some clarifications I ask him but what would happen and what happens to the ones who don't have anybody to ask? Just asking... Gute Nacht und Bis Bald!
