Why is German word order important?
Understanding German sentence structure is essential for correct communication. You’ll learn how verbs, subjects, and objects are placed in main clauses, subordinate clauses, and questions.
How is a main clause structured?
A main clause follows the standard pattern: subject – verb – object. It can stand alone and expresses a full idea.
Example:
Ich esse einen Apfel. (I’m eating an apple.)
What is a subordinate clause?
It gives extra information and cannot stand alone. The verb typically moves to the end of the clause.
Example:
Ich esse einen Apfel, weil ich Hunger habe. (I’m eating an apple because I’m hungry.)
What should I do in this grammar quiz?
