I remember when I was in middle school learning german.many, many years ago...sitting with the family at the dinner table when suddenly in my teenage brain, unrelated to dinner, the difference became clear and I proceeded to explain this to my parents and sisters who must have thought WTF? So I really laughed and clicked on this video!! thanks for the memory.
This is interesting, because in English we usually negate the verb even when talking about objects. "I don't have a dog." is way more common than "I have no dog."
I love ur videos it really motivates me to learn German! ❤️❤️ especially that it’s kind of boring these days because of the virus this video is GREAT! ❤️❤️
Very grateful for your work. Right now trying to get back to my German studying. Your videos resurrected my listening comprehension and were useful overall. Vom Herzen danke!
Das ist sehr Hilfreich. Danke. Deutsch ist meine dritte Sprache und abwohl ich es fast jeden Tag benutze (in der Schweiz), habe ich noch Mühe in solchen Situationen. Subscribed 😉 Stay healthy
Thank you very much for the explanation. I would like to ask if you have done a video on 'da-' words before. As a non-native speaker, I find those words that begin with 'da-' very difficult. E.g. dafür, daran, darauf, daraus, damit, darüber, etc. I know they can be translated as '(preposition) + it'. However, they are used as one word in German and seem to appear in different positions. Would you mind doing a video on this topic or telling me if you have done that before? Danke schön!
An older style of English (1800s or so) always used a more German-like use of the word "no" by placing it before the object. (Subject verb "no" object.) It's slightly less common, but some use cases are still the norm. For example, the following are pretty common sentences today: "He drinks no alcohol." = "He doesn't drink alcohol." "I am no fool!" = "I am not a fool!" So, this concept should be pretty straight-forward to native English speakers. :)
Nice video, Cari! :) I really love this channel! As an idea for a video, can you explain the difference between warum, wieso, and weshalb, and when to use each?
For what it's worth: the subtitles at 2:21 and 2:24 show "it" instead of "ist", one error that invariably trips me up when quickly typing sentences in German (and concentrating on the hundred and one *other* aspects I'm trying to get right 😂😂) I also recommend anyone looking for a slightly different take on the position of nicht/kein to look at Emanuel's article ( yourdailygerman.com/position-nicht-german/ ) and its follow-up. He boils it down to one fairly straightforward idea: nicht/kein *always* comes directly before what it is negating, *as long as you regard the conjugated verb as living at the end of the sentence*, as per a Nebensatz. There's still some elaboration and a generous serving of "Sprachgefühl" sprinkled on top of that, of course, but the basic idea is super-easy and really helpful.
I think it's okay to say "I drink no alcohol" in English. So it's similar to German. Thanks for a clear explanation! I've just started studying German and was puzzled by "kein(e)".
Yes. I drink no alcohol = I don't drink alcohol = I don't drink any alcohol. I think the third one is the most common. If you can replace what you're saying with the form with "no" in English then you want kein in German.
People would understand what you mean by "I drink no alcohol" and it is not grammatically incorrect, but it is not idiomatically correct. People say, "I don't drink alcohol", or more often, as stated in the video, simply "I don't drink" - by that it is understood that you are talking about alcohol. Similarly, a vegetarian would say "I don't eat meat". "I eat no meat" would sound clumsy.
nicht = not kein = no don't = do + not In English in most cases you use "don't" because the verb cannot be negated with the word "not" alone; which is restricted to the modal verbs.
Hallo, Das war super und konnen sie für unseren Bitte über die feste präpositionen mit einem verb machen?weil es viele verschiedene die feste präpositionen mit seinem verben gibt. Danke schön
I love so much learning with you isnt easy for me from Venezuela but im learning little by little of course english isnt my first language and my german is límites but the only thing i can say to you is: ich liebe dich so vielen une danke meine lieber ... I write in english und deutsch because of i know that you dont know or understand spanish ich hoffe Glück fur dich.
Vielen Dank für hilfreiches Video! Wir hatten eine Einführung in das Thema Passiv ... und ... Oh mein Gott ... Könnten Sie ein Video machen, in dem Passiv erklärt wird? Es gibt so viele verschiedene Zeiten in Vorgangspassiv und Zustandspassiv. Es ist so verwirrend zu verstehen, welche man verwenden soll. Möge es hilfreich sein, Parallelen zu Passiv auf Englisch zu ziehen.
Ich weiß nicht ob jemand das bemerkt hat, aber es gibt ein feller in die Englishen untertiteln: "WhO'S jacket is that?" 4:30 Also, danke für ihre lektionen!
This is an excellent series of videos. Congratulations. This particular video does remind me that my old brain has some trouble keeping up when the speaking is fast, as it is at times here. I'm wondering about the two sentences, "Ich kann kein Deutsch," and "Ich kann nicht Deutsch sprechen." I have heard both. Am I correct that this is an example of the contrast of negating a noun as opposed to negating a verb, thus the "kann" in one and the "nicht" in the other?
Hallo Cari, danke, Eure Video haben mir beim lernen so viel geholfen. Könntest du auch mal die nächstes Thema über wurden, werden, und würden erklären. Danke 😊💜
Bitte könnt ihr solches grammatisches Video einmal pro Woche oder einmal pro zwei Wochen drehen. Und wenn es möglich ist,verlinkt ihr mit dem Video eine PDF Datei oder einen link. Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag Janus. Dank und Respekt an easy German Team. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.
I got little confused while I'm trying to translate 'I don't have brother' - my answer was 'Ich habe nicht einen Bruder' while the answer sheet says 'Ich habe keinen Bruder'. Your video was super helpful and my question has perfectly solved. Thank you!
Viele Grüße aus Quarantäne

Your videos are great motivation for me, especially during these difficult times. Learning German makes everything else seems less stressful.

You have such a warm patience in your smile, and your lessons are so welcoming. Thank you for sharing your time & talents with us!

The negation is easier learned when you listen to people talking. It's very musical 👌🏻👂
Thank you Cari, your words are so clear! Your channel is a fantastic brain distraction right now!
This is interesting, because in English we usually negate the verb even when talking about objects. "I don't have a dog." is way more common than "I have no dog."
