lesson 10.2

Hi All

In lesson 10.2 

Kindern instead of Kinder. I understood the plural is Kinder. Das Kind , Die Kinder.

Once again help please

Maxie

Hi Maxie, 

Kindern in “sie kommen mit ihren drei Kindern” requires the dative case which is indicated by the preposition mit. Plural nouns in dative need an additional -n if they don't end in -s or -n, for example:

Er geht mit den Hunden spazieren. - He goes for a walk with the dogs.

Sie geht mit ihren zwei Babys spazieren. - She goes for a walk with her two babies.

Thank you Julia

I know “Mit” takes the Dative. So never even picked that up. Sometimes the obviuos is in front of us and we miss it. With each sentence I am looking out for all sorts of other grammar points and sentence structure, that we miss the simple and the obvious.

7 of us are going to Germany in June. To the Maler Weg. I won't be hiking, but my family will. I have found a lovely looking yarn shop in Dresden which I will visit and will cycle too. Am most excited that we are going. Haven't been since long before Covid.

Take care

Sharon

Happens to all of us! 

So exciting to hear you have booked your tickets! I bet you can't wait to go. Keep us updated :)

Viele Grüße,

Julia
