Rebuild these sentences in German I stay at home when the
weather’s bad I play computer games when I
feel like it I don’t play chess because I’ve
never learnt REMEMBER: “WEIL the verb to the end KICKS” Use a comma to separate the 2 clauses (main clause & sub-clause) The same is true of other conjunctions e.g. wo, bevor or wenn I play on the computer before I
go to bed I have a shower before I meet my
girlfriend Link 2 sentences using und or aber (REMEMBER TO USE NORMAL WORD ORDER) YOU DON’T NEED A COMMA . Notice that there’s no comma after the adverbial time phases Sonntags Nach der Schule I like reading books but I
prefer watching TV On Sundays I normally stay at
home and do my homework or watch videos |
