Adjective Endings
Describe people and places with simple, correct adjective endings.
German adjectives often change their ending when they stand before a noun. This chapter keeps the topic A1-friendly: you will practise adjective endings after der, die, das, den, dem, and plural die. You will learn useful chunks like der neue Kurs, die kleine Wohnung, das helle Zimmer, den alten Bahnhof, and dem netten Lehrer.
