German A2Chapter 2 of 26

Time, Manner, Place

Build longer German sentences without losing the verb.

This chapter teaches a practical A2 word-order pattern for daily plans: time before manner before place. You will learn how to keep the conjugated verb in position 2, how to add information about when, how, and where, and how to start sentences with time phrases like Morgen or Am Montag.
