(👆 UPDATED VERSION of 'English Grammar for German Learners')
Demystify German by discovering the principles & patterns that underpin German grammar (including declension patterns!).
In this ‘German for beginners’ grammar lesson video, you’ll unlock the FINAL piece of grammar information you need to MASTER the German case system (and, by extension, the German language!).
There are only FOUR declension patterns ever used in German: the standard, default pattern and 3 ‘exception patterns’ that deviate from the norm.
Learn how to overlay the All-In-One Declensions Chart with one of these four patterns ^^ in order to know EXACTLY which declension (strong, weak, or none) you need to put on your determiner and/or adjective(s) for ANY gender noun [masculine, feminine, neuter, plural] and ANY case [nominative, accusative, dative, genitive]!
Declension patterns are based on 2 principles that are perfectly reflected in the standard, default pattern (#1):
A) There is a general preference for the STRONG declension over the weak.
B) Determiners & adjectives ‘don’t mix’, but take DIFFERENT declensions.
Each of the exception patterns breaks (or omits) one of these rules:
• pattern #2 utilizes the ‘no declension’ option first (vs. the strong)
• pattern #3 HAS no determiners (just adjectives)
• pattern #4 mixes determiners & adjectives (using the SAME declensions)
No other German course will teach you about declension patterns! If you try to learn German the conventional way, you will discover just how complicatedly it is usually presented.
But German grammar actually makes a lot of sense! And you as an adult are perfectly primed to analyze and grasp it, quickly and easily. With this FINAL tool of ‘declension patterns’, you will be truly learning German smarter, not harder.
