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.
So if some questions stay unanswered: just stop by and leave as a comment at GermanPod101.com
