Learn German Past Tense Naturally – Life Lately in Germany

Hello, I'm Eleo. I'm a language teacher and I live in Germany. And I want to tell you now and show you what I've been doing in the last few weeks. So this video is a good opportunity to hear the past tenses, such as the past tense, the perfect, or the temporal subordinate clauses, so to hear and repeat the past tense quite naturally. If you want, turn on the subtitles, then you can read along. Yes, a lot has happened to me in the last few weeks. A lot has happened. I've been on the road a lot. I've met friends. I've been to events. And I've been to Paris. I drove to Paris for a few days. And I visited friends, friends and family there. I was very happy to be in Paris again. I wasn't in Paris for a long time. And I like the city very much. It's a really beautiful city. And that's why I walked a lot through the city. And I looked at the streets. The shops. The beautiful buildings. Yes, I really walked a lot. From morning to evening I was on the road in the city. And I drank coffee or tea. And I ate croissants. Since I've been back in Germany, I haven't eaten croissants anymore. Because they are so much better in France. I wasn't just in cafes. I was also in restaurants. One evening I ate couscous. That was very tasty. When I was in Paris, I noticed again how much art and culture and cultural events there are in the city. For example, there are posters of cultural events hanging in the subway everywhere. Like, for example, plays or film performances. I think that's very nice. And I noticed again that art is a really big part of the city and everyday life there. I think that's very nice. I was also in a few second-hand shops. And I looked for clothes for autumn and winter. In the last few weeks, I've been wearing the same green sweater very often. As you might see. My visit to Paris was short. But I was very happy to have been there. And since I've been back, since I've been back here in Germany, nature has changed a lot. The days have become shorter and darker. It has become colder. The leaves have fallen from the trees and turned brown. Autumn has really started. And since the days have become shorter and colder, I've met up more with my friends inside. So we've met up more at home, or in cafes, or in bars. We've cooked together. We've laughed together. And we've also played together sometimes. One afternoon, we played cards together. And recently, we've also been to a bar and played darts there. That was also very funny and a lot of fun. Apart from that, I've been to a few events. Also cultural events. Like, for example, a small film screening. There, filmmakers have shown their short films, and then talked about them. And that was very exciting for me. I've also been to a small theatre performance in the park in the evening, when it was dark. And I've been to the Video Days. That's a big event, where people who make videos for YouTube or other platforms meet up. And there were also many exciting discussions on stage. Yes, that was very interesting for me. And I've also been to a few concerts. The concert that I liked the most in the last few weeks was a concert by a Latin American band that played psychedelic cumbia. It was a small concert, but the atmosphere was very good. And the people danced. Yes. When I think about the last few weeks, those are the moments that stay in my memory and will stay in my memory. The music, the laughter with my friends, the conversations, the impressions from Paris, the nature that changes. How is that for you? What have you experienced in the last few weeks? And which moments have remained in your memory? Feel free to write that in the comments. I'm very excited and looking forward to reading from you and writing with you. And I'm also happy to tell you how it is for you with the past. Is it easy? Is it difficult? Is it similar to your native language? Or is it completely different?
