Lesson#1
Welcome to this deck on the German Subjunctive Mood, or Konjunktiv II. This is a crucial concept at the B1 level. We use it to talk about things that are not real: hypothetical situations, wishes, and dreams. It's also the key to sounding more polite when making requests or giving advice. Let's get started.
Lesson#2
The most common way to form the Konjunktiv II is with the verb 'werden'. You use its subjunctive form, 'würden', and add the main verb at the end of the sentence in its infinitive form. For example, 'I buy' is 'Ich kaufe'. But 'I would buy' becomes 'Ich würde kaufen'.
