The downloadable worksheet really comes in very handy. We (me and my two sons) practice with Juliane during the video and then use a printed version of the worksheet to test our knowledge. Afterwards we keep it in a file with all the others to review before moving on to the next lesson. Thanks for all the awesome extras!!

Hi Deidre,
I am glad to hear that you are using the worksheets as well! For additional reviewing, you can also listen to the audio file without looking at the worksheet. Another idea would be to pause the audio version after each sentence and then repeat after me. Keep up the great work! 😀
Bis bald,
Juliane

That’s great to hear, Muhammad.
There will be a similar exercise with other verbs on day 8.
Hallo. Please explain to me if “to take a shower” is reflexive or not. In French and Spanish it is. Thanks.

Hi Diana,
well, it can be used with an object and without an object. But my feeling is that just “Ich dusche” is used more frequently. So, you can either say “Ich dusche.” or “Ich dusche mich.” or also “Ich dusche mein Kind.” for example.
When it is used with an object, it’s one of the so-called “false reflexive verbs” which can be used either with a reflexive pronoun or an object in the accusative. Another example for a false reflexive verb would be “waschen”: You can either say “Ich wasche mich” (meaning the whole body) or “Ich wasche meine Füße”. Take a look at the lesson in step 14, on day 92.
Viele Grüße, bis bald,
Juliane
