How to tell time in German


Wie Spät ist es? What time is it?

Es ist kurtz nach halb drei. It's a little past two thirty. They don't say two thirty though, they say half three!

Germans have a whole different way of wording things even when telling time. We will be working on this in class. Practice counting in German at home. That will help you alot!

Herzlichen Willkommen zur Ihre Deutschunterricht!

Welcome to your German lesson!

We will be learning a variety of different ways to greet one another in German this week. We will practice these by speaking, writing, playing games and watching videos. Pay attention and always do your best work.
Dankeschön, Christine
