Have I been lying to you? Is it all just a pack of lies? Well, sort of. Up until now, we have been really hammering home the fact, that in a normal sentence, the VERB is in the second position. It’s a rule that we have gotten pretty comfortable with. Too comfortable maybe. Today, we learn how to use subordinating conjunctions, like dass, weil and wenn.

We aim to simplify the German language by providing guidelines for language learning. There are of course lots of ways of explaining the same thing. We recommend listening to as many explanations as you can until you find one that makes sense to you.

ABOUT US...........................................................................

We've been living in Australia on and off since 2000. Together with my Austrian wife, Christine, and our daughter, we are a German-speaking family. Pronunciation varies throughout the German-speaking world, much as it does in the English-speaking world. My English usage is influenced by Australian, British and Irish usage; my German by central German origins [Bonn] and the overwhelming influence of my Austrian wife :) If you‘re interested in the Austrian Dialekt, I can recommend this video [ Ссылка ]
