This lesson focuses on the topic of asking questions, both "open" questions using the W Fragewörter, and more closed questions which are more likely be answered by ja or nein. You'll learn to ask questions using various words, all of which begin with the letter W, and you'll also learn to use reported speech involving questions. Julia is back with another Kulturbeitrag in which she talks about celebrating birthdays in Germany.

Learn how to gossip in German! In this lesson we'll be looking at reported speech and how this works with dass. You'll learn how to say who said what to whom, of course using the correct grammatical constructions.
