Übersetzung 1-1
By referring back to lesson examples, you should be able to write out the following sentences in 
German. On a piece of paper, first number and write each English sentence. Then review the lesson 
above and produce a German sentence that says the same thing as each English sentence. After all 
seven lines are translated, follow the 
Antworten
(answers) link to compare your work with the correct 
ones. Do not be too concerned at this point if your spelling of the German verbs do not match the 
answers. You will learn all about German verb forms in later lessons.
