  • Chapter 8, Day 7: Review and self-check

    The last lesson of Chapter 8, and a celebration. Day 7 is your review: key lines, a spoken I can list and a mini test with answers, so you can score yourself.

    You'll practise:

    • Ich fahre gern Fahrrad, ich koche gern, und ich tanze gern. Aber ich jogge nicht gern.
    • Ich lese gern und ich klettere. Und ich diskutiere gern.
    • Das stimmt nicht! … Okay, das stimmt.
    • Ich spiele gern Fußball. Und ich höre gern Musik: Zamrock, sambischer Afro-Pop, Jazz.
    • Fußball! Bist du für Westend oder für Spreewerk?
    • Ähm … Ich weiß nicht. Ist das wichtig?

    I like playing football. And you? Nice! Have a nice weekend! And now, one last time, the key sentences of this chapter. Listen and shadow. Congratulations! You have finished level A1. Think back to Chapter one, when everything was new. Now you can talk about yourself, your day, and your free time, and you can invite…

    That's the end of these A1 chapters for now. Viel Erfolg!

    The flu. The waiting room. The prescription. And the three short dialogues from Day five once more: calling the practice, two friends, and the pharmacy. Just listen. And finally, the whole story one last time. Listen, and notice how easy it sounds now. Wonderful. That's Chapter seven. You can go to the doctor in Ger…
