Lesson 12 - singular noun n-declesions

Morning everybody, 

it's been quite a while since my last post, I hope that break won't discourage me from further posts and ...and basically I think that the grammar lessons I'm writting about are boring...so after I'll get to the last lesson, lesson 22, I'm gonna change approach and post something more entertaining, or at least not that boring...maybe some texts to learn by heart, or music lyrics...we'll see. But for now, it's same old grammar, and as usual, some grammar stuff before we start :

Still don't know why I am posting all this ? well...one of the reasons is "because...because I want to have everything in the correct order to get back to it when I'll have more time"...and ..before you ask another "why on the earth would you want to get back to it ?" I'm gonna put some examples to make those "n-declesions" a little bit easier to understand : 

The preposition mit requires the dative. The accusative here is used for the object of the verb fragen.

That was it for today, 5 simple exercises, no need for some extra details regarding this topic, cause it will be more easy to spot which are n-declesions and whic words are not, as we will continue with our lessons. For now just remember that :

Alles ist seinen Preis wert.

Everything is worth its price.

So please keep calm, as I can guarantee that an hour a day of German is a really small price of your German fluency in future. Pay the price and say germanizzzed :)
