Grammar topics

All levels
  1. 01

    Konjunktiv II: würde, hätte, wäre

    The velvet glove of German: polite requests, wishes, and parallel-universe hypotheticals — all handled by one mood.

  2. 02

    Reflexive Verbs: sich freuen, sich erinnern & Co.

    Many German verbs point the action back at the doer. Learn the reflexive pronouns, the prepositions that hitch a ride, and the sneaky dative reflexives.

  3. 03

    Adjective Endings Demystified

    The most feared table in German, shrunk to one idea: the ending is a signal that broadcasts gender and case — especially when the article refuses to.

  4. 04

    Relative Clauses: der, die, das as Connectors

    Relative pronouns are just the definite article in a case costume. Master the comma, the verb-last rule, and start chaining the long, elegant sentences Germans love.

  5. 05

    The Genitive: Possession Like a Local

    des Mannes, der Frau, eines Tages — the case that makes German sound grown-up, plus the everyday escape hatch 'von + Dativ' and the prepositions that insist on genitive.
