Honestly sir please don’t stop with your videos, they truly do help me and many across the the globe. We are so thankful for your videos and you probably have no idea 🙏
@@HerrFerguson I was also thinking sir, it would be really fascinating if you made a video about why you chose to study German and how you learnt it so well :)
This is such a good video and I will definitely be checking out the rest of your catalogue

It's unbelievable, I have seen more than 12 videos and the explanation of my teacher, but this it's the best explanation of this verb in all internet. Thank you so much for your help. This verb is complicated and it´s not easy to gasp all his form, specially in reflexive
Hello! Thanks for your video :) 3:50 do you mean direct or indirect object? beacause in the slide before there is ''das wohnzimmer'' which is also a direct object.
@@HerrFerguson Thank you for your reply. But fernsehen and wachsen are also infinitives .... I didn't really perceive the difference between the two cases. Many thanks in advance for your reply
Hallo Herr Ferguson Könnten Sie mir bitte Bescheid geben ob Das,Ersatz Passiv nur im dritten Person singular und Plural vorkommt. Die Tür lasst sich offnen Die Türen lassen sich Offnen Danke im voraus
Danke! 😄 I teach at a secondary school (in the UK) which is a comparable age group to that of a high school, though I also work with younger pupils. I generally work with those aged between 8 and 18 years.
Hi , I hate it to disturb you with constant questions. I only comment when im stuck in lerning and i want to know if it is ok? To get to the topic... The question is i know about the rule TIME MANNER PLACE but where does the person reciving the object go like in the sentance Kaufst du einen schal fur die giraffe Can you say kaufst du die giraffe einen schal? Or does giraffe need to be at the end. I hope you understand my question , it is hard to phrase out and english is my second language so it just makes it harder.... Thank you for your time and effort i really deply appriciate it.
Hallo! It’s a good question. Technically, you can do either of your options, and people would understand (as long as the indirect object (the recipient) is in the DATIVE case, so here: der Giraffe) but typically you’d put the recipient as close to the main verb as possible: „Kaufst du der Giraffe einen Schal?“
Hello Mr Ferguson I have a doubt. When we use sich lassen +infinitiv For example Das Fenster lässt sich offnen Is this construction same as Es lässt sich + infinitiv For example Es lässt sich nicht leugnen. Or is the usage Es lasst sich , a fixed construction like es gibt? Can you please make it clear to me . Thank you E
Hallo! In a way, yes. You can think of ‘es lässt sich’ as ‘it can be’ if that’s helpful. I.e. the window can be opened ‘Das Fenster lässt sich öffnen’ it can not be denied ‘Es lässt sich nicht leugnen’
My doubt is unlike Es gibt which does not change, the usage Es lässt sich dh im allgemeinenSinn, es can be replaced by das . In this case can you please tell me When es and das is used to express something in General and the positioning of es and das in this case. Thank you
Yes, afraid so! ‘Es gibt‘ is a set phrase which won’t change. ‘Es lässt sich’ can mean ‘it allows itself’ I.e. it can… It would therefore be ‘das lässt sich’ if you need to say ‘that allows itself’ or ‘that can…’ ‘Der Himmel ist blau’ ‘Ja, das lässt sich nicht leugnen’ (The sky is blue) (Yes, that cannot be denied) Es gibt zwei Fenster und sie lassen sich nicht öffnen (There are two windows and they cannot be opened) I hope that helps?
Their blessed to have you as their German teacher . Am a Ugandan learning from your videos but am at a step ahead .Vielen Danke

So helpful! Danke :)
Hello! Thanks for your video :)
3:50 do you mean direct or indirect object? beacause in the slide before there is ''das wohnzimmer'' which is also a direct object.
Hallo! I mean ‘with ONLY a direct object’ (rather than with an infinitive and a direct object)
@@HerrFerguson Thank you for your reply. But fernsehen and wachsen are also infinitives .... I didn't really perceive the difference between the two cases.
Many thanks in advance for your reply
Hallo Herr Ferguson
Könnten Sie mir bitte Bescheid geben ob Das,Ersatz Passiv nur im dritten Person singular und Plural vorkommt.
Die Tür lasst sich offnen
Die Türen lassen sich Offnen
Danke im voraus
Love it!
That was great! Do you teach high school German (or higher)?
Danke! 😄

To get to the topic...
The question is i know about the rule TIME MANNER PLACE but where does the person reciving the object go like in the sentance
Kaufst du einen schal fur die giraffe
Can you say kaufst du die giraffe einen schal? Or does giraffe need to be at the end.

Hello Mr Ferguson
I have a doubt.
When we use sich lassen +infinitiv
For example
Das Fenster lässt sich offnen
Is this construction same as
Es lässt sich + infinitiv
For example Es lässt sich nicht leugnen.
Or is the usage Es lasst sich , a fixed construction like es gibt?
Can you please make it clear to me . Thank you
E
Hallo! In a way, yes.
You can think of ‘es lässt sich’ as ‘it can be’ if that’s helpful.
I.e. the window can be opened
‘Das Fenster lässt sich öffnen’
it can not be denied
‘Es lässt sich nicht leugnen’
My doubt is unlike Es gibt which does not change, the usage Es lässt sich dh im allgemeinenSinn, es can be replaced by das . In this case can you please tell me
When es and das is used to express something in General and the positioning of es and das in this case. Thank you
Yes, afraid so!
‘Es gibt‘ is a set phrase which won’t change.
‘Es lässt sich’ can mean ‘it allows itself’ I.e. it can…
It would therefore be ‘das lässt sich’ if you need to say ‘that allows itself’ or ‘that can…’
‘Der Himmel ist blau’
‘Ja, das lässt sich nicht leugnen’
(The sky is blue)
(Yes, that cannot be denied)
Es gibt zwei Fenster und sie lassen sich nicht öffnen
(There are two windows and they cannot be opened)
I hope that helps?
Danke Ihnen, Herr Ferguson 😊
