Penny?

[cobalt forum]

a shop

[tardy prawn]

Oberbayern is still in the south I think though despite it's name

[woven nacelle]

lmao

[fiery dagger]

Just like they have upper and lower austria and theyre both in the north

[tardy prawn]

[outer vector]

because elevation, no?

[fiery dagger]

Yea

[dark garnet]

Upper can means older layer in geology

[green pebble]

where you get those question which don't show here in the chat? 😄

[peak scaffold]

Can you type it Horko?

[tawdry gorge]

Grueezi

[peak scaffold]

Ahh okay

[tardy prawn]

Ah really? @dark garnet

Maybe that is why

[knotty fable]

Grüezi?

[green pebble]

ok, I thought that I don't hear people talking 😄

[tardy prawn]

I have never even heard someone in Germany say Grüezi yet, what region was that again

[cobalt forum]

(Grüezi is relatively formal, not for friends)

[peak scaffold]

Hi Hecke, Bye Hecke

[tardy prawn]

Interesting

[boreal zealot]

Auf wiedersehen

[tardy prawn]

achso lel

[boreal zealot]

I heard it everywhere in Krems when I visited ex

[tawdry gorge]

thats gruessi @boreal zealot

[fiery dagger]

that map is cursed

[dark garnet]

Warum

[fiery dagger]

adjüüs is what you say when you sneeze too

[green pebble]

is 'einen schönen Tag noch' greeting?
I mean, if I say it, is it weird if I add tschüss after it?

[compact hemlock]

It's a farewell.

[green pebble]

btw, in Berlin you can hear tschüssi as well, don't know exact spelling

[outer vector]

with "noch" it becomes a farewell

[cobalt forum]

tschö, bis Morgen/bis Montag

[woven nacelle]

Lan wieso gönnt mir keiner die native rolle

[tardy prawn]

auf Wiedersehen is considered a little formal is it not? i was afk for a sec so idk if you already said that

[boreal zealot]

Worum geht die Lektion

Bis Spater

[green pebble]

I mean, cashiers say that, I reply, and then I'm conditioned to say proper bye when I'm exiting 🤣

[unreal coral]

@boreal zealot Grüsungen

[tardy prawn]

yeah I have only ever heard employees at Penny tell me Auf Wiedersehen 😆

[boreal zealot]

Adieu

Hmm interessant

[fiery dagger]

The speech can be super formal but they dont even look at your face

[boreal zealot]

Bis zum nächsten Mal

[fiery dagger]

They just pass your items at light speed and say their scripted greeting

[cobalt forum]

Tschüssikowski (jokey)

[tawdry gorge]

schauen == sehen

[green pebble]

sorry, for which you said it's used when it's less than hour or so

[boreal zealot]

if anybody approaches me with that imma be friend

[wary atlas]

And maybe worth mentioning Wiederhören.

[boreal zealot]

Can we say noice in Germany xD

[woven nacelle]

@wary atlas kannst du mir pls die native rolle geben?

you can as a meme @boreal zealot

[tardy prawn]

there is a few other greetings that are less common that are also farewells in Bavaria just like Servus, I can't believe I really just had to look up Verabschiedung to remember the English word farewell

[outer vector]

beautiful denglisch there

[boreal zealot]

@woven nacelle noice

[woven nacelle]

yeah lmao

[green pebble]

I made a mistake, repeat:

is 'einen schönen Tag noch' goodbye?
I mean, if I say it, is it weird if I add tschüss after it?

or - should I use only one of them or it doesn't matter?

[peak scaffold]

super very goodbye

[green pebble]

aaa, so they are fine if they come toghether

[boreal zealot]

Bis bald super duper

[woven nacelle]

muss ich hier jz noch nen test bestehen um native zu sein oder was lol

[wary atlas]

Which one to use if I want to come off as the coolest person ever?

[tardy prawn]

people also say really commonly "schönen Tag dir noch", sometimes even employees have said that to me and it's technically not the most formal

[wary atlas]

@woven nacelle No but here is a lesson so it's not the right place to ask about it.

You can DM me about it.

[woven nacelle]

ay sry

[tardy prawn]

It was really close to Hamburg during my year abroad

I know some stuff about bavaria because I was an exchange student there but i did not live there for super long

[green pebble]

oh please, can you repeat that thing about times, eg which is for sooner?

you mentioned that you will use some for short, like in an hour or so

[boreal zealot]

Hey I have a general question, before speaking a sentence do you convert it from your language to german?

[green pebble]

I don't

[boreal zealot]

You

[wary atlas]

@boreal zealot Unrelated questions should generally go in #questions

[boreal zealot]

Okay

I heard them skippin on "dir" just wie gehts

[peak scaffold]

what's the difference between wie gehts and was geht? I think the latter is for was geht ab right?

[tardy prawn]

Also "ich bin gut" is never the correct way to respond to that question, I see that mistake a lot from beginners.

[peak scaffold]

ugh, better stop using it

[tardy prawn]

they are asking the same thing but with "was geht" it's more like "what's up" instead of "how are you"

i mean not asking the same but

they are greetings

[peak scaffold]

yeah yeah just like in english

[toxic schooner]

I watched on dark that some people said "mir gehts"....is that means its going ok ?

[peak scaffold]

I decline learning this

[green pebble]

yup, decline, declension

[surreal vale]

deklination

[boreal zealot]

ihnen for both?

you and they

[wary atlas]

Note that dative doesn't get covered until week 5 so it's fine to just memorize these directly without understanding the case.

[green pebble]

you can also answer with gut danke / nicht so gut, right?

[cobalt forum]

"geht so", "passt"...

[tawdry gorge]

solala

[dark garnet]

Prima

[peak scaffold]

what's the deal with squeezing a 'ja' in the sentence? Like, mir gehts ja gut or something, I think I heard it somewhere

👀WAT

[fiery dagger]

Are people expected to talk about their current situation when you ask wie geht's or is it just a way to start the conversation?

[peak scaffold]

I should've wiped my previous German knowledge before restarting XD

[tardy prawn]

Another common thing is "Und dir so?" i've gotten so used to it that i almost always say it like that

yeah well close to it and also I see it online quite a bit

[boreal zealot]

ebic

yes

[green pebble]

yes please

[sharp rune]

[fiery dagger]

[tardy prawn]

Yeah I mean people who I know just say "naja es geht" if it's like so-so

[peak scaffold]

ah shoot, I'm required to provide consistency

[boreal zealot]

i am nowhere near that confident to do that

[spice bluff]

What does naja mean?

[boreal zealot]

how do you end these small talks

[toxic schooner]

What does naja mean?
@spice bluff
Well

[boreal zealot]

ABANDONED convo

[green pebble]

ich muss gehen 😄

[wary atlas]

@unreal coral @peak scaffold @toxic schooner ❤️

[spice bluff]

So it's like, "Well, it goes"?

[tardy prawn]

Yeah

Naja is like a word that I feel

lol

[boreal zealot]

naja?

was?

[tardy prawn]

it's a lot easier to feel than to directly translate

[boreal zealot]

sounds like its a vietnamese word

[spice bluff]

oh no

[peak scaffold]

shots fired

[dense nest]

doesnt sound german at all

[dark garnet]

Naja kinda like also

[toxic schooner]

Danke

[boreal zealot]

[peak scaffold]

#german-only kinda feels advanced tho

most of the times, that is

[tardy prawn]

what doesn't @dense nest

[unreal coral]

@sharp rune Falscher C-Rolle-Verdiener. Du bist hierhin reingekommen, um etwas auf deinem echten Niveau zu lernen, oder ?

[fiery dagger]

Getting out of the #general comfort zone?

[dense nest]

the previous word she said

[outer vector]

mfw also has #general comfort zone

[peak scaffold]

yeah true, otherwise it'd have been a narrow comfort zone

[unreal coral]

Yay !!

[boreal zealot]

yes move on

[peak scaffold]

Hecke there's literally a slide number on top

[green pebble]

[outer vector]

i will need to sleep eventually 😔

[tawdry gorge]

[tawdry gorge]

schwimmst du heute?

[boreal zealot]

do you swim?

[burnt scaffold]

du stinkst 😌

[boreal zealot]

Do you eat bread

[tawdry gorge]

stinkst du, syro?

[tardy prawn]

Lol

[fiery dagger]

I hate how schwimmst has a single vowel this language is impossible

[boreal zealot]

duolingo lessons kinda quirky

[tawdry gorge]

naja, muss nicht mal fragen

[burnt scaffold]

die antwort ist offensichtlich nein 😌

[outer vector]

no ferch, try gvprtskvni

[toxic schooner]

Welche

[peak scaffold]

whow

[tardy prawn]

mir kam das nicht super offensichtlich rüber aber das glaub ich dir syro

[tawdry gorge]

wuerd ich ned

[storm turret]

syro stinkt

[peak scaffold]

is there a way to disable that ba-dum sound when someone joins/leaves?

[boreal zealot]

where from you?

[storm turret]

yep in notification settings

[burnt scaffold]

user settings -> notifications -> scroll down

[tawdry gorge]

wo - where

wohin - where to

woher - where from

[peak scaffold]

awesome thanks sun & syro

[tawdry gorge]

wohin fliegst du?

[outer vector]

@boreal zealot also the verb still comes in second place - "where from/whence come you" you might analyze it as

[boreal zealot]

oh

[tawdry gorge]

woher kommst du?

[tardy prawn]

her/hin are also sometimes in principle synonymous unless you are nit-picky, however for woher/wohin it's not the case at all, they are not interchangeable

also like "hinein" would be kinda literary but "herein" is still said

[tawdry gorge]

wer, wen, wem

[peak scaffold]

hard

[dense nest]

whats that noise

[tardy prawn]

wen/wem are the same as whom (which is outdated in english)

[tawdry gorge]

wer bist du? who are you - nominativ

[boreal zealot]

whomst

[tardy prawn]

Lol wat @outer vector

[tawdry gorge]

wen siehst du?

[boreal zealot]

Wen/r?

[tawdry gorge]

wem

wem gehoert das buch

[peak scaffold]

'a bit' kinda oversimplifies it jk tho nothing's easy here

[spice bluff]

👍

I actually like how wer/wen/wem teaches you more about dative/accusative (it makes you pay attention to what's happening in the sentence)

[tawdry gorge]

was ist das? - what is that

wie - how

wieso - why

[outer vector]

wieso sind es so viele fragewörter für das 😩

[storm turret]

how so?
wieso

[tawdry gorge]

wieso - why, how so, how come

[zenith magnet]

ohh TIL

[tawdry gorge]

wann - when
wenn - when

wann sie kommen.... - when they are coming

wenn sie kommen... - IF they are coming

[green pebble]

whenever = wenn
would that also work?

ok

[tawdry gorge]

wann auch immer

[green pebble]

you understood right, all good 🙂

[storm turret]

or 'immer wenn'

[boreal zealot]

immer wenn is what

[tardy prawn]

if you say "wenn" for example it can't refer to "at what o'clock", only "wann" can do that

[storm turret]

wenn is a conditional when - when x, than y

[boreal zealot]

uhhh

[spice bluff]

Wenn actually reminds me of like, coding logic (from this convo)
"When x = 5, then do this"

[tawdry gorge]

warum, wieso, weshalb - why

[tawdry quartz]

weshalb=deshalb?

[peak scaffold]

oh now it makes sense that deshalb looks similar
(it's different i kno)

[boreal zealot]

when your?

idk

[storm turret]

(weshalb is the question, deshalb is the reason)

[boreal zealot]

oh

[tardy prawn]

I don't know if it's just me but "warum" feels a little bit more demanding than "wieso", however I guess it also depends on the situation and tone of voice and all that jazz

yeah

[green pebble]

which is how come and which how so?

[fiery dagger]

wie kommt

[tawdry gorge]

warum - standard why
wieso - how come/how so
weshalb - for what reason

[storm turret]

wie kommst doesn't exist in that sense fercho

[boreal zealot]

good explanation

[peak scaffold]

too many options

[fiery dagger]

i know

[dapper flame]

i've never heard of weshalb

[storm turret]

know the others exist but warum is a good cover-all for 'why?' for a beginner

[green pebble]

btw, on topic of weshalb-deshalb, there's warum-darum
but I was told that darum is extremely impolite (probably as single word answer, I doubt it's impolite if you do full sentence, right?)

[tardy prawn]

"weshalb" I believe is either more formal/literary, one of the two, can't remember. But also it can be used in combo with "deshalb"

Lmao

[green pebble]

so you wouldn't say darum is impolite per se?

[storm turret]

@burnt scaffold darum

[green pebble]

I thought so 😄

[peak scaffold]

changing the 'w' to 'd' in those question words sorta makes sense sometimes 🤔

[boreal zealot]

is Frageworter compound word,

?

[fiery dagger]

wieso? dieso

[peak scaffold]

HAHAHA No that's why I said sometimes LOL

like with 'was'

[spice bluff]

no worries

[green pebble]

du musst mal 😄

[storm turret]

ich, wenn ich mal muss

[unreal coral]

Die Lehrerin ist weg. Können wir anfangen zu spielen ?

[boreal zealot]

ye i havent got a german keyboard on my pc @wary atlas

[spice bluff]

Is it okay to write w/ two ss's? Like would that bug German speakers?

[wary atlas]

@boreal zealot Then heisst. But not heist.

[fiery dagger]

you can write two s bro

[spice bluff]

ok cool

[green pebble]

not louder, just more frequent, probably more head movement?

[dapper flame]

you can also use ALT + 225 with windows

for ß

[boreal zealot]

what

[sturdy idol]

alt gr + s works for me too

[knotty fable]

Hallo, ich heiße Jhu und ich komme aus England

[dapper flame]

@toxic schooner I'm between B1 and B2 in some stuff and converse in bunch of situation, but I skipped a bunch of grammar, so, repeating it 😄

[boreal zealot]

ich komme aus den slowakai

algeria flag is epic

[peak scaffold]

is the point B what that her emphasizes in that sentence?

[toxic schooner]

@green pebble wow

[exotic wasp]

🇩🇿

[tardy prawn]

as the speaker, when you say "her", it implies that a person is coming towards you or to you, in your direction @peak scaffold

[boreal zealot]

aesthetically pleasing

[fiery dagger]

Hecke du bist nicht zu laut ich kann nicht höre dich

[exotic wasp]

das ist die "flag" von algerien

[peak scaffold]

oh yeah so it adds that little sense over there, cool

[green pebble]

@spice bluff not the nerd talk now, bud

[tawdry gorge]

Ich heisse hecke, ich komme aus England und Litauen und studiere gerade Physik

[exotic wasp]

@toxic schooner danke

[tawdry gorge]

ich heisse

[boreal zealot]

plurals in german are epic

[fiery dagger]

Id say its uncountable in english, not plural

[green pebble]

oder Mein Name ist...

[tawdry gorge]

ich heiss/ich arbeit/ich studier

[peak scaffold]

you could count it but lets not go there XD

[boreal zealot]

als = as

[spice bluff]

Ich arbeite als Programmierer (is that correct?)

[boreal zealot]

how do i say "for" who i work, or like "in"? am i making sense?

[green pebble]

bei?

[boreal zealot]

thanks

[tawdry gorge]

ich arbeite bei siemens/tschibo/rewe

[spice bluff]

[exotic wasp]

when you say bei you like the company

bei for a company name but für for a person, right?

[green pebble]

bei siemens für Marko

[boreal zealot]

how do i say marko is a ****

[tawdry gorge]

we dont do that here

[tardy prawn]

Ich bin Nate, und hab mich bisher für kein bestimmtes Studium entschieden, aber ich zieh momentan sehr in Betracht BWL eventuell zu studieren, genau wie die anderen deutschen Studenten die nicht genau wissen was die überhaupt machen wollen

[boreal zealot]

just curious

[peak scaffold]

how many pages left Hecke?

HAHAHA

[green pebble]

this and 14 more 😄

[outer vector]

heck i'm sorry to point it out again but some sounds are kind of covering your voice

[tawdry gorge]

Ich - me
Schwester - sister
Bruder - brother
Vater - father
Mutter - Mother

[toxic schooner]

Sister/brother in law?

[boreal zealot]

hold

[peak scaffold]

me means I too no?

in a sense that is

[green pebble]

stief is for not in law but half 🙂

[fiery dagger]

What if you clone yourself would that be ich or dein zwilling

[tardy prawn]

well technically mir/mich can in some sense also mean "I" so like in "mir geht es gut" = "I am doing well", not "Me is doing well"

[tawdry gorge]

Grossvater - grandfather
Grossmutter - grandmother

Onkel - Uncle
Tante - Aunt
Cousin - Cousin (male)
Cousine - Cousin (female)

[fiery dagger]

gross father

[tawdry gorge]

Schwager - BIL
Schwaegerin - SIL

[toxic schooner]

👍

[boreal zealot]

Is vater und mutter too formal? or is it like causally used

[tardy prawn]

also yes "ich" can mean "me"
"das bin ich" = "that's me"
so hecke wasn't actually wrong @exotic wasp

[tawdry gorge]

mama, mami, mutti

[exotic wasp]

papa

[tawdry gorge]

vati, papa

[wary atlas]

The I/me thing is weird thing that English has. Often when you use a pronoun by itself in English, you use the "object" form of the pronoun. Whereas most languages use the "subject" form.

In case that wasn't explained.

[tardy prawn]

^^

[tawdry gorge]

schwiegersohn - son in law
schwiegertochter - daughter in law

[outer vector]

yeah, what base said. i didn't want to interrupt

[storm turret]

@green pebble dunno if it was corrected in vc but stief isn't half. that's halb. stief is step

[tawdry gorge]

Enkel - grandchild (boy)
Enkelin - grandchild (girl)

[exotic wasp]

@tardy prawn i mean using ich mir oder mich depends on the sentence

[tawdry gorge]

Nichte - Niece
Neffe - Nephew

[fiery dagger]

Nichte was a great philosopher

[tawdry gorge]

halbbruder

stiefmutter

[tardy prawn]

yes, it does, but the meaning lies more in the grammar than it does in a literal linguistic translation @exotic wasp

[spice bluff]

That'd be great

[exotic wasp]

danke

[green pebble]

@storm turret all good, I messed up english terms, I was thinking right 😄 too early for me it seems 🤣

[tardy prawn]

haha I can not remember the last time I actually needed to say Väter, let alone in English Dads

[tawdry gorge]

geschwister - siblings

[toxic schooner]

Maybe your friends' dads?> haha I can not remember the last time I actually needed to say Väter, let alone in English Dads
@tardy prawn

[green pebble]

it crackles insanely now

[tardy prawn]

I've not needed to talk about my friends dads 😹

it's gone now

[toxic schooner]

Ja

[spice bluff]

It sort of sounds like the mic getting jostled

[fiery dagger]

YES

[green pebble]

it was like you were talking into a plastic glass while squeezing it

[peak scaffold]

wat no

[tardy prawn]

lol your voice echoes now

[spice bluff]

no crackles, but a little echo (not bad, better)

[tardy prawn]

but no crackles

[toxic schooner]

lol your voice echoes now
@tardy prawn but its better

[tardy prawn]

yes i agree

[spice bluff]

ye

[green pebble]

[boreal zealot]

[tawdry gorge]

wie viele geschwister - position 0

[toxic schooner]

Wie viele väter

[outer vector]

do you mean position 1?

isn't the conjugated verb in position 2

[fiery dagger]

Die zucker väter

[tawdry gorge]

Zuckervaeter

[boreal zealot]

whats that

[toxic schooner]

Sugar is zucker

[tawdry gorge]

Einzelkind - single child

sugar daddy @boreal zealot

sugar mountain

[boreal zealot]

Oh really hahah

[spice bluff]

zuckerburg = sugar castle

[tawdry gorge]

Zwilling - twin

[toxic schooner]

oh confused burg and berg
@boreal zealot
Its berg

Also michael Schumacher is schuh macher

[fiery dagger]

Ich habe drei schwestern, und wir sind zwei paare zwillinge

[spice bluff]

How would you say "I'm the oldest sibling" or something?

[green pebble]

how would you say if you have two more twins, eg when someone has triplets or more?

[tawdry gorge]

drilling

[spice bluff]

I didn't know that (the gender and sentence structure)! Ty for the info

[green pebble]

would you say Ich habe zwei Drillinge oder?

[outer vector]

@tawdry gorge my lessons at uni are focusing more on word order so i figure i would clarify on the thing i was confused about earlier - the V1 is in 2nd position in declarative sentences, but it is in 1st position in question sentences, is that correct?

@lean plume @boreal zealot suggestion is to write bot commands you need for yourself in #botchannel and if you want to explain something to someone else then it's fine to invoke bot wherever you are

Especially lessons are tricky since we others might think there's some mews about lessons :)

[glossy cedar]

|| What are modal verbs? ||

[finite raven]

What level is this lesson for? Is it about basic conjugation/construction, or more about use cases and slightly advanced stuff?

[true adder]

Hi bulli!

[wary atlas]

@finite raven B & C.

[true adder]

probably A1 / A2

oh

[ashen cave]

oof

[outer vector]

@finite raven "Casual lesson on modal verbs Können, Dürfen, and Mögen is starting now"

[true adder]

im here to just listen then. i probably wont get it

[ashen cave]

thats me all the time

[sharp hemlock]

Ich auch

[finite raven]

I saw that. Just not sure what B/C level of modal verbs is 🤔

[tiny dragon]

I would never have thought that this topic would be B & C

[finite raven]

We’ll see 😄

Gonna stick around anyway

[outer vector]

i find declension tables relaxing, hecke 😌

[glossy cedar]

I signed up for A level lessons

Thats interesting that I was pinged for this

[wary atlas]

Yeah, hecke said she's doing more obscure stuff like stuff about modal verbs you usually don't learn as normal grammar.

Like uncommon usages, etc.

[tiny dragon]

well, stick around anyways 🙂

[ashen cave]

i signed up to feel popular when i get pinged for lessons

[finite raven]

@tiny dragon exactly. Why i was confused.

[true adder]

oh i c

[sharp hemlock]

Ich kann nur A-level verstehen 😆

[silver prism]

Kind of familar with how they affect sentence order

[ashen cave]

(i was joking)

[finite raven]

Im fine with listening to a beginner-oriented lesson

[true adder]

and i still dunno modal verb lol

[glossy cedar]

Ohh okay

Modal verbs = expressing intention and mood

[true adder]

can, may, shall, will, ought to, need, have to. would, should, etc..

just googled

[tiny dragon]

In English -> can / could / must / need to / will /would

lol, yup

[sharp hemlock]

Are you streaming?

[true adder]

ya

[finite raven]

The idea is that they’re often combined with other verbs ☝️

[sharp hemlock]

I can't view it.

konnte ist Präteritum, oder?

[tawdry gorge]

Ich konnte sie gestern nicht besuchen - ||I couldn't visit her yesterday||

whenevre i hear Präteritum or see the word, i think of how base says it. LOL

[tawdry gorge]

Ich koennte sie morgen besuchen - || I could visit her yesterday||

[glossy cedar]

|| Konnte is could not and könnte is could? ||

[toxic schooner]

|| Konnte is could not and könnte is could? ||
@glossy cedar
No

[true adder]

Er kann schwimmen 😆

[outer vector]

@glossy cedar konnte is past, könnte is subjunctive

[finite raven]

@glossy cedar Konnte is past form of können. Könnte is the subjunctive form of können. They are unfortunately both “could” in English.

[true adder]

wats subjunctive?

[sharp hemlock]

schwimmen ist schwer 😆

[finite raven]

“When i was young, i could do it” = konnte

“I’m not sure if I could do that” = könnte

[tawdry gorge]

Koennen vs Koennten

[ashen cave]

wats subjunctive?
@true adder its used in my native language and i have absolutely no idea v-v

[sharp hemlock]

Ich kann nicht buchstabieren 😛

[glossy cedar]

Oh that makes sense chicken tiktik

[true adder]

i c....

LOL

[sharp hemlock]

Ich habe schon model-verben lernen. Es ist gut. Nicht schnell, nicht langsam.

[finite raven]

@true adder

The differnce between “I will” and “I would”, i guess? I’m not sure if that helps. Would is a subjunctive. It’s expressing like possibility, i think?

[outer vector]

i'm surprised i don't know the P2 for können

[tawdry gorge]

Wir haben meinen Onkel nicht besuchen koennen Perfekt
Wir konnten meinen Onkel nicht besuchen Praeteritum

[glossy cedar]

[outer vector]

@tawdry gorge with "hatte" is it should have or should have had?

[tiny dragon]

Nur eine Woche.*

[outer vector]

so it is common to use hatte with modal verbs?

[tawdry gorge]

werden

[outer vector]

rather than the partizip II form

[sharp hemlock]

Haben is for past tense?

Ja vielleicht.

[tiny dragon]

Compound tenses + subordinate clauses: modal verb comes after the infinitive of the main verb
Sie wird morgen nicht kommen koennen - ||she wont be able to come tomorrow||
Obwohl ich gestern abend rausgehen durfte,... - ||Although last night I was allowed to go out,....||

[trim lava]

[high onyx]

Does this work with past too?

"She wasn't able to come yesterday"

[tawdry gorge]

Obwohl ich ihn morgen werde besuchen koennen,... - ||Although I'll be able to visit him tomorrow, ...||
