4.8 Welchen Sport ich gern treibe

Hallo alle zusammen!

Zum Aufwärmen machen wir unseren Tagesminiplausch und eine Wiederholung.

Wiederholung

In the previous lesson, you learned types of creative hobbies and how to say you like doing something. Let’s review what you have learned.

Jetzt bist du dran!

Was machst du gern in deiner Freizeit? What do you like to do in your free time? Write and record your hobbies in your journals.

Lektionsüberblick

If you did not find (m)any of your hobbies in the previous lesson, 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 sports in this lesson. (Lektion 4.7 introduced you to creative hobbies, Lektion 4.9 will introduce you to to online hobbies, and Lektion 4.10 to other hobbies and other free time activities). In the end, you will be able to 1) recognize different kinds of sports – Ballsport, Wassersport, Wintersport, anderer Sport -, 2) name one or more sports you participate in, and 3) name one or more sports you watch.

1) Sportarten

Ballsport

See how similar the German and English vocabulary is for sports that use a ball.

Wassersport

Review the water sports below.

Wintersport

See how well you can recognize these winter time activities.

 

Andere Sportarten

Read and listen to each of these other sports.

 

 

Let’s practice.

🎥 For more information on Sportarten, you can watch this video by Learn German.

Kleiner Hinweis

If you do not play sports or are not interested in sports, we will explore how to say that later in this lesson. For now, you can choose to say: Ich treibe keinen Sport.

 

Jetzt bist du dran!

Welche Sportarten treibst du? Which sports do you do? In your journal write down any sports that you do or are interested in. Look at the “Kleiner Hinweis” above if you do not do sports and write down the sentence that you see there.
Then record yourself saying the sport (or sentence) in your audio journal. If you can do it immediately without reading, that’s great! Otherwise, practice saying it a couple times before recording. Or rerecord, if you are not satisfied.

2) Was ich gern mache…

Read and listen to Sasha’s introduction and complete the activity.

Woman playing ice hockey

Let’s practice some more!

 

Jetzt bist du dran!

Welche Sport treibst du gern? Which sports to do you like to play. Using the example sentences given above, write down a sentence in your written journal.
Then record yourself saying the sentence aloud in your audio journal. If you can do it immediately without reading, that’s great! Otherwise, practice saying it a couple times before recording. Or rerecord, if you are not satisfied.

 

3) Welchen Sport ich gern sehe…

Some people enjoy watching sports as much as they enjoying playing them. Read the following examples.

People watching sports on television Ich sehe gern Basketball.

Ich sehe gern amerikanischen Fußball.

Ich sehe gern Leichtathletik.

Let’s practice. Be sure to click through to each question.

 

Jetzt bist du dran!

Welchen Sport siehst du gern? Which sports to do you like to watch? Using the example sentences given above, write down a sentence in your written journal. Feeling motivated. Choose a sport that you do not like to watch and write that down too (Ich sehe nicht gern…).
Then record yourself spelling your first and last name in your audio journal. If you can do it immediately without reading, that’s great! Otherwise, practice saying it a couple times before recording.

Zum Schluß

In this lesson, you learned  1) recognize different kinds of sports, 2) name one or more sports you participate in, and 3) name one or more sports you watch. If you are feeling unsure about any part of the expanded introduction, go back to that section and review.
Now write out sports that you enjoy participating in or watching and then record yourself in your audio journal. If you can do it immediately without reading, that’s great! Otherwise, practice saying it a couple times before recording. Or rerecord, if you are not satisfied.
