Gender and Plural Practice

Here are more suggestions and tips, this one for forming plurals.



Here is the comparison of adverbs hin (hither) and her (yon -- both from old English). 



I especially like Mr. Wallace having included slang expressions, which erase the directional charge, by standing in for both hin und her.

In the examples below which comprise the production and use of "da- and wo- compound words", notice that our tutor includes the adverbs hin und her with his preposition examples.  Well, they do indeed work with da- and wo- compounds.



Nice concise lesson with good examples.
Danke, Herr Wallace of Atlanta.
