Throughout the entire lesson
You don't need to make any notes,
Because I've summarized everything for you in a PDF file.

Of course, I'll give you homework again
And we'll conduct a test at the end of the video.
I'm giving you the homework assignment right now.
Write your own example
with a new prefix of sentences
After class, into the comments.
Perhaps you're first wondering,
What is an inseparable prefix?
We're doing a quick review.
We can separate separable prefixes from the stem,
For example, shopping—I'm going shopping today.
But I cannot separate inseparable prefixes,
For example, I'm selling my car.
Very good, you already know the difference
between separable and inseparable prefixes.
Now we will start with our new words.
Our first prefix is B, so B-sentences.
In B-sentences, it means taking up space.
For example, the stadium is fully occupied.
That means the entire stadium is full.
Fans are everywhere.
The stadium is fully occupied.
Incidentally, we have a state passive here.
I will show you a second example.
The company quickly filled the vacant position with a new employee.
To fill a position means a vacant role
fill with a new employee.
There is also a new colleague.
The company quickly filled the vacant position with a new employee.
To replace means something like to exchange.
For example, she is replacing the sick colleague today.
A colleague is sick.
She cannot work.
You need a replacement, a substitution.
She is replacing the sick colleague today.
One more tip.
You can also say in everyday language,
She is covering for her sick colleague today.
To move means to bring something to another place.
Also how to move.
For example, Ms. Lopez is transferred from Berlin to Stuttgart.
This means that although Mrs. Lopez remains in the same company,
But she is going to another location.
We can combine the prepositions von and nach to express movement.
Ms. Lopez is being transferred from Berlin to Stuttgart.
Very good! You've made it this far.
Can you also do a little mini quiz with me?
Very good! Answer A is correct.
My car tire is flat.
I must replace him.
Platt means no air here.
My car tire is flat.
I must replace him.
Also, I need a new car tire.
Versetzen also has another meaning.
To relocate can also mean
to bring something or someone into another state
For example, music puts me in a good mood.
Also when I listen to music, I feel happy.
Music puts me in a good mood.
What music do you actually listen to?
Write it in the comments for me too.
To be horrified means something like to be frightened.
For example, I was terminated.
This message shocked me.
Being fired means I lose my job.
This message shocked me.
that I was very much startled.
And translate?
Translating has a very clear meaning.
If it is inseparable, translating means
to transfer something from one language into another language
For example, I translate my emails using ChitGPT,
because I still feel uncertain.
Did you pay good attention?
Then we'll do the test now,
to store the newly acquired knowledge.
How did the test go?
I think you did a good job.
