Guten Tag!

Zum Aufwärmen machen wir unseren Tagesminiplausch und eine Wiederholung.

Wiederholung

In the previous lesson, you learned how to say things you like doing with friends and how to say what you want to do. Let’s review what you have learned.

Now let’s review the use of will.

Lektionsüberblick

With our previous lesson, we continued learning how to make plans with friends. We can now ask and answer “Was wollen wir machen?” In this lesson, we will learn how to ask and answer “Wann treffen wir uns?” (When will we meet?) and “Wo treffen wir uns?” (Where will we meet?) In the end, you will be able to make plans with friends by being able to 1) ask about meeting times and respond and 2) ask about meeting locations and respond.

Was weißt du schon?

Let’s see how comfortable you feel about the vocabulary around times and places for meeting.

1) Wann treffen wir uns?

Read, listen, and repeat the short dialog below.

Here are some other possible responses.

Salzburg im Blickpunkt

   Die Bergputzer sind eine kleine Berufsgruppe, die die Felswände der Hausberge Salzburgs nach lockerem Gestein und anderen Gefahren absucht und säubert. 1574 wurde der Berg erstmals von verbliebenem Lockergestein befreit. Am 16. Juli 1669 lösten sich riesige Felsmassen vom Mönchsberg und zerstörten mehrere Gebäude. Es kamen 230 Menschen ums Leben. Nach dem Sturz fanden die Überprüfungen öfter statt. Heute überprüfen die Bergputzer jedes Jahr circa 300.000 m² Fels. Dabei müssen Wurzeln junger Bäumchen sowie Büsche zurückgeschnitten, damit die Spalten und Klüften nicht vergrößert werden.

The Bergputzer (=mountain cleaners) are a small professional group who search and clean the rock faces of Salzburg’s local mountains for loose rock and other dangers. In 1574 the mountain was cleared of loose rock for the first time. On July 16, 1669, huge masses of rock broke off the Mönchsberg and destroyed several buildings. 230 people were killed. After this tragedy, the cleaner checks took place more frequently. Today, mountain cleaners check around 300,000 m² (358,797 yd²) of rock every year. The roots of young trees and bushes must be cut back so that the gaps and fissures are not enlarged.

2) Wo treffen wir uns? – Naming meeting locations

Read, listen, and repeat the short dialog below.

Let’s practice.
