Our idea was to spoon-feed you German in very small bits. And to tell you parts of one big story at the same time.

Fritz says, maybe he can help because he has an idea ... What is Fritz's idea? How does he want to help? Transcript, lesson and extras: german-stories.com/33-januar-februar-maerz-months-demonstrative-pronouns-dieser-dieses-diese Learning German with training wheels The characters in our story DON'T speak at a regular speed, just like native speakers among themselves. Why? They speak natural German. But we put in countless hours of work to direct every voice actor so that he or she speaks a bit slower and more clearly, adapted to the language level. You can always speed up the audio in the app. We believe this is the better way. Just as we believe that at the beginning, training wheels teach a child to ride a bike better than bruises from falls do.

Transcript, lesson and extras: german-stories.com/32-das-video-describe-peoples-actions The best way to learn German: Don't beat yourself up with too many new words When writing a learning story it's easy to get carried away by an idea for a dialog. But that can result in an episode having way too many new words. That would be demotivating for you, the learner. Therefore we counted every word and went through endless writing and re-writing sessions for every episode to make sure that didn't happen to our story.

He can't have stolen the book because after the party he didn't even have a free hand to carry it. Paul regrets that he is so forgetful and not a good detective. Then he remembers Meili's answer from earlier in the group chat. She said she has a job, but Paul realizes that's not true: She’s only studies. The book is gone, and Tim didn't do it. Was it Meili?
