Day 183: She Knows Mum's Number by Heart

In a primary school in Cottbus, where the children are learning their parents' phone numbers, Smilla (A), a pupil, puts her hand up to her teacher, Mrs Böhm (B).

How to study this lesson 3 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Point at (or tap) a German word to see what it means.
  3. Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native German, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.
