Briefly describe a place, tourism vocabulary & possessive pronouns in the accusative and dative: unserem/-r/-n, eurem/-r/-n.

All of a sudden Paul doesn't want to waste any more time. He quickly looks up information about the German island of Sylt, then rushes to get the train to there. Apparently, this is his understanding of „taking action“. On the phone, he gets some tips from Anna: He should try finding Fritz's garage by using the garage opener. Fritz's house is surely close to the garage. And he has a red BMW - there are certainly not many cars like this on the island. Then Laura writes Paul. Her Oktoberfest police operation is now over and she is free. She wants to know if Paul has time. Paul doesn't know what to do: He has no time, but he can't tell her why he has no time because that would shurely make her angry. Will Paul find Fritz on the island? Why would Laura get mad if he tells her why he doesn't have time?

While waiting for the movie to start and looking on the internet for the best surf spots, Tim suddenly wants to see Paul's key ring. Fritz’s garage door opener is attached to it. They see on the website that the sticker on it is a symbol which represents the North Sea island of Sylt. It’s hard to say if Fritz is really on Sylt. Right when Paul intends to turn off his phone, Grandpa calls. Despite the annoyed moviegoers, he doesn't have the heart to cut off the phone conversation with him. Grandpa found out how to find the new address of the hiding place of the painting. But for that he needs the book and the information written in it! Paul's father had helped Grandpa with the research despite being banned from using a smartphone. That’s how he was able to find out that the book nowadays has an extremely high value, too. So Paul absolutely must get the book back! He decides that he has to take action now. What does he mean by "taking action"?

Understand a movie description & possessive pronouns in the accusative and dative: seinem/-r/-n, ihrem/-r/-n.

Meili, Anna, Tim and Paul are waiting in the cinema for the film to start and they’re reading the movie description. Paul tells them that he is getting more and more online jobs now. It also turns out that his blog is becoming even more popular. He and his friends gather in front of his cell phone as they urge him to finish his new blog post so that they can read it first. He writes down a few unanswered questions about Fritz and lets them have a taste of his new writings. That's when Anna remembers a website and tells Paul to use it to search for the best kitesurfing spots on Germany's islands. Suddenly, Tim is completely beside himself and wants to see Paul's key quickly. Why does Tim suddenly want to see Paul's key? Why did Fritz block his Facebook photos for everyone, but not for Meili? Does he really have a holiday home on the beach with a garage and a garden? And does the garage opener Paul found fit the garage? Why didn't he tell anyone about his holiday home?

It's not difficult to create a learning story and jump to complicated grammatical structures early on, just so the author doesn't have a hard time writing. But it's very difficult to fit your writing into a well structured teaching plan, so that the student doesn't have too much trouble learning German. We did it the hard way. Hard for us, easy for you: German Stories starts from zero, and leads you to your goal in small steps. Luckily there's only a little bit of grammar per episode for you to learn. If you're curious about our motivations behind putting in so much effort, go to german-stories.com/the-best-way-to-learn-german
