Hi everyone,

At German school we've been changing sentences and verbs to Präteritum or Plusquamperfekt but summer vacation starts next week and I don't want to forget how to do these (I'm struggling with them anyway). Does anyone know of any websites that may have practice examples that I could work with for some extra help..?

I did find the following but I found it too simple.

http://www.deutschseite.de/grammatik...amperfekt.html

then again, i don't use german that much :S

Ah there are some nice examples on that page, thanks. Though I normally like to avoid the use of English when studying German I found some of the explanations (in English) about their use very helpful. Haven't tried the translation (English to German) practice yet but they look like fun.

Try Hueber.DE as well - I used it for PQP exercises.

I would try reading one of the quality newspapers if you can manage it. Something like the Suedeutsche Zeitung (www.sz.de) for example. I don't like the NZZ or Tagi much, but I guess you'd get a similar experience with them too.

I'm reading Tagi and 20 Minuten for the simple fact of local news, international news I normally prefer to read in English. Reading is fine but it's passive, what I need is something more challenging like building sentences.

I used to use this website, I think it just a teacher who has put her materials on the web, but the grammar stuff is really good.

Good luck.

Excellent site..!! The work sheets are perfect, including answers at the tap of a mouse!
