2. Narrative Past (Präteritum)
Learn written past tense for modal verbs, war, hatte, and storytelling in written German.
3. Adjective Declension
Master adjective endings after definite (der/die/das), indefinite (ein/eine), and zero articles in all cases.
4. Reflexive Verben
Learn everyday self-actions: sich freuen, sich interessieren für, sich anziehen with accusative & dative reflexives.
