| In this lesson, you learned how to make plans in German with the structure |
| Wollen wir + verb phrase? |
| It literally means "Do we want to …?" |
| but in everyday German it works like "Shall we…?" or "How about we…?." |
| Remember that when we use wollen as a modal verb, the second verb stays in the infinitive and moves to the end of the sentence. |
| Now let's practice using Wollen wir in different situations to suggest activities. |
