4.9 Was ich gern mache – Online-Hobbys
Hallo alle zusammen!
Zum Aufwärmen machen wir unseren Tagesminiplausch und eine Wiederholung.
Wiederholung
In the previous lesson, you learned different types of sports and how to say that you like to play and watch different types of sports. Let’s review.
Welchen Sport siehst du oder spielst du gern? Which sport do you like to watch or play? If you don’t watch or play sports, do you remember how to express that? In your journal write down the sports you enjoy watching or playing. If you would like a challenge, write a complete sentence using the sentences in the activity above as a template. Then record yourself saying the sentence aloud.
Lektionsüberblick
If you did not find (m)any of your hobbies in the previous lessons, you will hopefully find some in this one. Remember, we are presenting a large number of hobbies for two reasons: 1) You will hopefully find at least two of your hobbies (if not, contact your instructor!) and 2) you can begin to acquire a passive vocabulary of hobbies, i.e. that you are able to hear/read some of the words and recognize them as hobbies, even if you do not always remember what they mean exactly.
Because there are so many different kinds of hobbies, we will “only” cover online hobbies in this lesson. (Lektion 4.7 introduced you to creative hobbies and Lektion 4.8 to sports. Lektion 4.10 will introduce you to to other hobbies and other free time activities). In the end, you will be able to 1) recognize different kinds of online hobbies and 2) name some hobbies you like to participate in.

Österreich im Blickpunkt

Nach einer Umfrage aus dem Jahr 2021 zockt mehr als die Hälfte der Österreicher*innen mindestens 1x/Woche und ein Drittel der Bevölkerung spielt täglich. In dem Jahr waren die beliebsten Videospiele FIFA, Call of Duty und Minecraft (statista.com). Videospiele werden von Österreicher*innen nicht nur gespielt, sondern auch entwickelt. Das erste österreichische Videospiel ist aus dem Jahr 1989 für den Commodore 64 und heißt Der verlassene Planet (Wikipedia). Seitdem wurden 363 Videospiele in Österreich entwickelt (GameCompanies.com). Das neueste Spiel ist ein Action-Rollenspiel namens No Rest for the Wicked von Moon Studios aus dem Jahr 2024 (EA).
According to a 2021 survey, more than half of the Austrian population plays video games at least once a week and one third play daily. In that same year, the top three games were FIFA, Call of Duty and Minecraft. Austrians do not just play video games, they also develop them. The first Austrian video game was Der verlassene Planet (=the abandoned planet) from 1989 for the Commodore 64. Since then, 363 video games have been developed in Austria. The newest game is an action role-playing game called No Rest for the Wicked developed by Moon Studios and released in 2024 (EA).
