In today’s lesson, Michaela’s neighbor stops by to pick up his package. And he is about to face a rather unhappy Michaela about it. Will she give the dog to someone who is unreasonable enough to have it send by mail?
We are also going to touch another really vital grammar point: the German words können und wollen. Or in English can and want. You can use them everywhere. You can talk about your abilities and needs. You can use them to talk about surprising changes, too. For example: “I can come home early today.” which would be “Ich kann heute eher nach Hause kommen”.
That is a lot for just one lesson right? Not to forget: we will also talk about German pets.

Isn’t it exciting? We will finally learn what’s in the package from Beginner Lesson 15! Will you be just as surprised as John and Michaela? And doesn’t the excitement makes you want to listen to the podcast right now?
Also, we will cover a really important grammar topic: word order in sentences! Even if you know all the vocabularies, the tenses and the cases, a wrong word order will still give you away as a foreigner. And even the easiest sentence can have you sound like a pro if you can get it right. So be sure to check out one of the most vital grammar points we covered so far.
Today Michaela and John want to see some sights. But who would have thought that sight-seeing could be so problematic? Not the actual sight seeing itself, but rather finding a date that fits both.
