  • In this video Herr Antrim explains what the most common separable prefixes in German are and how those prefixes change the meanings of the verbs to which they are attached. There are a ton of separable prefixes for German verbs, but the prefixes in this video are the most used ones. If you master these prefixes, you will be able to use the vast majority of separable verbs (trennbare Verben) in German.

    Thank you so much for this. I have always struggled with these even though I have learned German for several years. I’ve been forced to learn countless vocabulary lists by heart but I just couldn’t picture the meaning of the words and the ‘logic’ of prefixes, so it never stuck in my mind. Your disclaimer was definitely useful as it explains that we should not expect one word to have an exact equivalent in another language. Yet, there is some common logic and learning foreign languages calls for some intuition.

    12:53 why is it ein Glas Wasser instead of einem Glas Wasser?(sorry for silly doubt)

    • @MrLAntrim
      @MrLAntrim  4 роки тому +2

      The glass of water is the direct object of the sentence. It is the thing being brought. That makes it accusative.

      @@MrLAntrim Helo Levi! I have n important question! As u know i have three german learning videochannels, what i subscribed. I saw a video on Lingoni yesterday. Da speaker was a nice girl, Jackeline. Ok, so: She spoke about two german verbs, ANFANGEN and AUFHÖREN. She said, that the word aufhören means to stop in english! But as i knew that to stop is halten in german! Because u r germanteacher, what do you say Levi? Tha second question is also about these 2 verbs, aufhören and anfangen.... But it stands further yet. So Jackeline said, that if we must use one of these words, anfangen or aufhören, we have to put the word MIT, which means WITH in english. But unfortunately when i watched, tried these words in the google's translator, i wrote I FINISHED WORKING YET. It was ICH HÖRTE DIE ARBEIT AUF! There WAS NOT the word, MIT! And i wrote it's opposite, i started to work.... it was ich fange die Arbeit an... Simply just this! Without da word MIT! So whats the truth Levi?

    • @iamhere6530
      @iamhere6530 4 роки тому

      @@akoska aufhören and aufhalten have similar usage earlier aufhören meant stop what you are doing and listen up but with time listen up dropped, halten means to hold/stop and aufhalten means to hold up/stop ( Herr Antrim explained this in this video 9:40)
      i dont think you need to use mit everytime. It's used when you want to "start with/stop with" something
      eg : ich fange die Arbeit an. (i start the work)
      ich fange mit der Arbeit an. (i start with the work)

    What is the logic in the verb abweichen?
    Weichen means to move away and abweichen means to differ, i dont really get it

    • @MrLAntrim
      @MrLAntrim  Рік тому

      You are figuratively removed from the other person's opinion or whatever it is that "differs" in the context of your usage.

    even though it is useful, the way and the format you tell all these ,s very boring and tiring. You could try to improve a more engaging teaching style.
