Hello and welcome to Coffee Break German. I'm Mark. Hello, I'm Heise Thomas.

How are you, Thomas? I'm very good today. Today we had the biggest Coffee Break Bake Off and I ate a lot of it. I'm a bit too full. It was indeed the Coffee Break Bake Off, but I was really gutted because I didn't get back into the office. No, you asked for it. You asked everything for FastMark. I didn't get it. But nonetheless, everyone, it was kind of like our own Coffee Break Cafe here in the studio, wasn't it? Yes, and we had lots of savory, lots of sweet things. We had four winners, four different categories. And it was like the quality, the standard we're high. The standard we're high. The only thing we didn't have was Erna. I wonder what she would have said to all the things that we tried today. I'm sure she would have been impressed. Erna is, of course, the owner of our cafe in the scenes from the Coffee Break Cafe. And we were experiencing little slices of life in each episode. And today we've got another episode for you. As usual, we'll read the text together, then we'll talk through the language, and we'll hear it one more time afterwards.

As Automas. I've been Berat. Let's get started. Los Gates. Today is a Monday morning, like every other one. Heinz, before that, about 8 a.m., again with his dog at us. There are also some guests, including Rommiller, from Lebensmittelladen. Nearby, they've got their morning coffee with Rebecca.

At the moment, only few people are sitting outside. And there are also only a few people sitting in the window. At the window, there is a few people sitting outside the nightclub. And at the table, next to each other, three friends. At the big table, two women sit with each other in one window. Which they will hold with their hands. Who will hold themselves and hold themselves. Normally, Johanna is sitting in this table with her yura-büchern.

If she learns from us after the Uni. But we've never seen her since childhood. When I think about it like this, then it's exactly our conversation. Johanna was incredibly sad that her comeliton wanted to pull her out of the country. Because for Johanna, Vanardine, more than just a good friend. Especially yesterday, he spoke to me. And we've already made a promise.

But in a few moments everything exists. I just do an espresso for Erna as Johanna. I can't help it. She comes straight and holding hands with Nadine in the coffee. Also Nadine is straight when she is also a little bit shy than her friends. Erna of course comes so immediately from the kitchen. And Umarmt Johanna, heartily.

With a little bit of care, she is able to meet her. And I, too, the two of them, are slightly shy. And they listen to Max-am-zu. A little bit about the world of our beginning. She tells us that Nadine remains here in the city of Ausland. Nadine grins the values of the unturned. Where the two of them begin to rule the kitchen. Erna, Umarmt, also Nadine. And let the two of them talk.

von nun an wieder öfter vorbei zu kommen. Oh, I'm glad Johanna is back. I really liked her as a person in season one. And I'm glad we see her again now in season two. That's a happy ending. That's a very happy ending, exactly. Let's go back through our text line by line now. Okay. Heute ist ein Montagmorgen wie jeder andere. Heinz war vorhin und punkt acht Uhr wieder mit seinem Hund bei uns. Okay, so today is a Monday morning like any other. Heute ist ein Montagmorgen wie jeder andere. So, jeder is that word that is used for any. Exactly. Do you know what gender it is here and why? So, what gender it would be?

I think it's masculine. I'm very good because of the ER. ER, yeah. And you asked why. Yes. Was der morgen? Ganz genau. Super. Because it's der Montagmorgen. Maskillen, if you make the comparison like any other. We still have to keep the masculine gender here. Good. Heinz war vorhin und punkt acht Uhr wieder mit seinem Hund bei uns. So, vorhin is that like earlier today? Ja, very good. And it's specifically used if there's not a lot of time has passed. You've maybe come across a similar word for here. Is that like, that also means before? Exactly. But it's less specified. It could have been like two days before or something. But for him means just a few minutes ago. Just a few minutes ago. Ok. So Heinz war vorhin und punkt acht Uhr so at exactly either clock wieder again mit seinem Hund

mit seinem Hund bei uns, at her place. Exactly. And the wieder here is because he always comes at either clock. So he hasn't been in before and he comes back. It's like always he comes at either clock. I get it. Ok. Good. Stammgäste, darunter, Frau Müller, vom Lebensmittelladen nebenan, haben sich wie üblich ihren morgendlichen Kaffee mit Gebek geholt. Right, quite a long sentence here. Auch einige Stammgäste, so the Stammgäste are the regular customers. Perfect. So also some regular customers, darunter, is that like, including? Yeah, very good. We've seen it once before, when we had that list of family, and it can really have those two meanings, you can say like, ich habe ein Blatt hoch, darunter ist dein Frosch, so like, literally under the leaf, there's a frog, or like, among them almost here, including among those regular customers, there's Frau Müller. Okay. So including Mrs Müller, vom Lebensmittelladen,

Lebensmittelladen, is like where you get your groceries, the grocery shop. Yeah. Nebenan, next door, haben sie wie üblich ihren morgendlichen Kaffee mit Gebek geholt. So holen, is when you fetch something. Is it good? It's reflexive here, though. Is it to get something for yourself? It is here because it refers back to the person themselves. However, it doesn't always have to be reflexive, so you could also put another noun here. It's just really our native object, so they're getting some things for themselves. For themselves. However, they could also get it for their friends. Okay. Okay. So the total thing, there's some regulars, auch einige Stammgäste, including Mrs Müller from their grocery store, next door, as usual, wie üblich. They picked up their morning coffee, ihren morgendlichen Kaffee mit Gebek, also with a pastry, ganz genau.

And just one thing, because we see morgendlichen in the past, we had morgigen, which was the adjective for tomorrow, and we see gestrian jetzigen, but this time morgendlichen, doesn't refer to tomorrow, but the morning, so like the morning coffee. Yeah, that makes sense. Okay. In the moment, sitzen draußen nur wenige Leute und drinnen und NSAID sind auch nur ein paar Tische besetzt. Okay, so in moment, in the moment, sitzen draußen, sit outside, nur wenige Leute und nur wenige Leute und drinnen und NSAID sind auch nur ein paar Tische besetzt. Is that like only a few tables are being occupied? Yeah, exactly, literally occupied. Perfect. Pretty, pretty straightforward. Am Fenster sitzt ein paar aus der Nachbarschaft und am Tisch nebenan drei Freundinnen. The Nachbarschaft is the neighborhood.

Yeah, genau. So am Fenster, by the window, sitzt ein paar, there's a couple sitting, aus der Nachbarschaft, from the neighborhood. And a couple from the neighborhood are sitting. And am Tisch nebenan, and the next table, drei Freundinnen, drei Gerufrens, drei Female friends. Yeah, perfect. Am großen Tisch sitzt ein zwei Frauen mit jeweils einem Kinderwagen, den sie sanft mit ihren Händen wiegen, während sie sich leise unterhalten. Okay. It longer, genau. Yeah, so am großen Tisch, at the big table, sitzt ein zwei Frauen, there are two sitting, two two women sitting, but jeweils is that like each one? Yeah, so yeah. Okay. Each one of them, with a Kinderwagen, a Pram... Yeah, Pram. A stroller, I think you call it in the US. A trolley stroller, Pram. Okay. Den sie sanft mit ihren Händen wiegen,

which they, with their hands, being like rock. Yeah, rock, was we? So, sanft. Chently. Chently. Okay. I thought it first, it was something to do with mustard. Ah. Okay. Senf. Senf. Yeah. Senf. Senf. Senf. Yeah. So, sanft. I think the gently makes more sense here. Yeah, absolutely. I couldn't see where the mustard was coming in there. So, den sie sanft mit ihren Händen wiegen, so, which they gently rock with their hands, während sie sich leise unterhalten, so, unterhalten, is, well, sie sich unterhalten, I'm guessing, begin is that a dative thing because they're talking to each other. They're chatting to each other. Yeah, but this time, it's actually a reflexive verb, and it uses an accusative reflexive pronoun. Okay. So, sich looks the same for the dative

and for the accusative, however, it would be different if we use, and for example, ich, then I would have all year, ich holee mir, but ich unterhalte mich. So, the difference between the dative reflexive pronoun and the accusative reflexive pronoun. So, ich unterhalte mich. What does that literally mean, just that part? It would really just mean I'm talking with somebody, mit jemanden. So, ich unterhalte mich mit dir, a moment. So, that was, I was going to ask, regardless of who you're talking to, you still need that ich unterhalte mich. Exactly. It makes more sense if we translate it in English, if we have plural, if we have two people, because we say they are talking to each other. Yeah. However, you still read neither reflexive pronoun, even if it's just one person. Even so, then, there's really a English translation for that, where you would have that reflexive pronoun part. So, ich unterhalte mich mit einer dative. Genau. Mit jemanden. Ja, oder mit jemanden. Okay. So, further chatting quietly,

um, leise. Genau, perfect. Normalerweise besetzt Johanna diesen Tisch mit ihren Judabüchern. Wenn sie nach der Uni bei uns lernt. Doch sie haben wir schon seit Ewigkeiten nicht mehr gesehen. Okay. I'm going to ask you with a dog in here, because it's one of those words I find difficult to translate. I think, though here, it's maybe like a butt. Yeah, genau. Perfect. So, normalerweise besetzt Johanna diesen Tisch. So, normally, Johanna occupies this table mit ihren Judabüchern with her law books. Wenn sie nach der Uni bei uns lernt, wenn sie kommens hier to study after university? Sehr gut, genau. We've seen that in season one. Doch sie haben wir schon seit Ewigkeiten nicht mehr gesehen. Right. I think this is sing. But she

have we already since eternity no longer seen. So, we've not seen her for ages. Exactly. And instead of she, it's just her. But it's our object here. And not our subject. But it is confusing because it's placed at the start, but only for purposes of emphasis. So, sie haben wir schon seit Ewigkeiten nicht mehr gesehen. When I first read that, I was thinking, sie haben. We're just going together. They have. I realize now, as you say, sie her means her. But her, have we already since. And Ewigkeiten is that eternity? Yes, very good. Okay. So, we've not seen her for ages. For ages. Wenn ich so überlege, dann eigentlich genau seit unserem Gespräch. Ah, okay. So, wenn ich so überlege, und überlege, ist, like, to think about something, or to consider something that can write here, so, when I think about it, wenn ich so überlege, dann eigentlich genau

seit unserem Gespräch, um, actually, exactly, precisely, since our chat. Yeah. Then, actually, exactly, since our chat. Okay. A lot of words in there. A very, very good translation for überlegen. It does also have a very, well, a completely different meaning if you use it as an adjective. So, for example, ich bin der überlegen, dann it means I am superior to you. I'm better than you. So, jemanden, dem überlegen, sign, if you use it to be, that means to be better than somebody. Okay. Wow. Right. Can I ask you one thing? Yeah. If, you know, when I think about it, is a little set phrase that we use in English a lot? If we wanted to see that same thing in German without really wondering, like, wondering about the grammatical elements there, can we just say, wenn ich so überlegue? Yeah. And we need the so in there. No! Okay. I was thinking about

because if I would say I would always add the so and just because I think it comes into roll over or emphasizes the process of like oh, I'm thinking about it. Yeah. But, you don't need it. I can also say, wenn ich überlege, dann macht das Sinn, like when I think about it, I make sense. So when you're so überleger or just when you're a leger and a nice little phrase there that we can use you when I think about it That makes sense or whatever. Yeah, no, you can totally use it like that. Good. Okay. Johanna War untröstlich Das ihre Kommilitonen Nadine ins Ausland ziehen wollte Denn für Johanna war Nadine mehr als nur eine gute Freundin Okay Untröstlich Das sind you word for me. Have we come across Tröstchen before or toast? I am not entirely sure to be honest Thomas. I probably should know, but I do it. I'm afraid No, it is totally go with I think we've made it maybe come across it or toast When we had that episode with the four regular customers who came back and one of for the funeral. Oh

Yes, one of them had passed away. So it means to console So that's Tröstchen, you know So untröstlich, would that be unconsulable? Ganz genau. We see inconsular English here. So Johanna war untröstlich. She was Unconsulable Das ihre Kommilitonen Oh, we've seen that our fellows like fellow classmate basically exactly and it's used for the context of university So your fellow university students. Okay, so the her was to say classmate for now Nadine in Southland see involved her that her fellow her classmate wanted to move abroad Ganz genau Then for Johanna Vanadine Meir als nur eine gute Freundin Because for Johanna Nadine was more than just a good friend Perfect And again, we have that kind of that object here for Johanna the start of the sentence to kind of emphasize it because we could also say Then Nadine war for Johanna or we could even put her Johanna at the very end

We just put it right there at the start to emphasize it. Okay, good. Gerade erst gestern hat erne mich darauf angesprochen und wir haben uns schon Sorgen gemacht So gerade erst gestern so sagt like just yesterday Perfect. Hat erne mich darauf angesprochen so erna Männschendete mich Ja, und wir haben uns schon Sorgen gemacht und wir Wir haben uns schon Sorgen so wie ist like we worried about it. Yeah, perfect. Genau. Okay, and we worried so sich Sorgen machen Again reflexive is to worry about something. We're something. Okay Doch in wenigen Momenten ergibt alles einen Sinn So there's another bot doch ja so doch in wenigen Momenten so within A few moments ergibt alles einen Sinn. So sin is sense. Yeah

You can have sin machen To make sense and Sin ergiven is the more correct more posh version of sin machen. I think you mentioned this to me before. Yes, so everything ergibt alles einen Sinn. Everything Makes sense. Yeah, you would still translate it with makes sense But many people say of you some people say in German that it's originally sin ergiven And that it's just through makes since the English version people started saying machten But originally it was sin ergiven. Okay, so in wenigen Momenten ergibt alles einen Sinn Is there an element of everything will make sense in a few moments time here? Yeah, and again we can use the present tense But because we have that doch in wenigen Momenten so we have that Reference to the future in that temporal phrase that we don't need to use the future tense We can just get away with the present tense, but it's still we still know it's in the future So everything will make sense after the break.

So let's find out what it is that's good to make sense. I'm sure it has to do with your Hannah I'm just making an espresso for erna as Johanna plötzlich auftaucht I can't it's calm fast Okay, I'm just making an espresso for erna as Johanna plötzlich auftaucht So auftauchen We've talked about that before like literally is like It emerges like comes out of the water because tauchen means to knife but he actually surfaces. She surfaces shows up she appears. I can't come fast and I can hardly believe it and that's that fast and for Can you understand things in getting things exactly more literally like to kind of like grass bit and you can also have that physical meaning You could also see here. I can come glauben for example She comes strahlend and henpchenhaltend with Nadine's cafe There's two of our lovely present participles here. Yeah, they're never nice to translate. That would say it's too late

So she comes strahlend Beaming shining And henchenhaltend hand holdingly. Yes, perfect. What sounds so nice With Nadine when's coffee so she comes in to the coffee with Medin with Nadine Beaming and holding hands with exactly big grin on her face. She's she's beaming excellent auch Nadine strahlend wenn auch etwas schüchterner als ihre Freundin So auch Nadine strahlend so Nadine is also beaming Wenn auch etwas schüchterner als ihre Freundin Like also a bit Something like a bit more something than her friend Yeah, or here even it's better if you say maybe even if she is Slightly until you know schüchterner. No

Scheuer so schüchternd Schei so the meaning is she also beams Even so slightly Scheier than her friend. So wenn auch den is like although or even though Yeah, even even so even if you know. Okay, so Nadine is also beaming even though she's a bit more shy than her friend Not as enthusiastic and the at was really just here Rings down the schüchterner bit. So it's not super shy. It's slightly more. Slightly more shy. Erna kommt natürlich so fort aus der Küche geschossen Und umarmt Johanna herzlich. Okay, so erna kommt natürlich so fort aus der Küche geschossen So what's the geschossen part there you have to think a bit figuratively here And because a sheason means normally to shoot so i nen file sheason or To shoot something like an arrow So she shoots out of the kitchen basically she comes while you're shooting out. Okay, kommt aus der Küche geschossen

Right, okay, so she of course Immediately rushes out of the kitchen would umarmt Johanna herzlich she hugs Johanna warmly like with her heart Ganz genau And you have that phrase like kommt geschossen quite often and somebody like runs really quickly or like crosses a distance quickly And often you have that and comparison as where you could for example Erkommt wie ein feil über die visig geschossen like he comes running across the field like an arrow Right, okay, so that's why they have the geschossen. Yeah, yeah, okay This is this phrase that i think is really really difficult to understand in German sich erkundigen nach Did we have it in a I think it's maybe in an in der sonner So it's like when you inquire about someone. Yeah, you know

Right, so mit mittelichen Sorge with motherly concern Erkundigt sie sich nach ihr. She asks after her. She asks her how she is exactly and we have to sich because it's reflexive and then always the mach that we need the preposition here she acquires after her about her Und auch ich und I too Größe die beiden. I greet the two of them leichter I think we've had that before him. Yeah, um relief. Relieved all with. Yeah, relieved relief. It's the best word here und höre aufmerksam zu um and I Listen Like attentively exactly carefully. Yeah, attentively Okay, let's continue leicht überwältigt von unserem empfangen erzählt sie uns erötend das Nadine vorerst noch hier bleibt anstatt ins Ausland zu gehen Okay, so leicht überwältigt

Aber zum schicke wazine So slightly something überwältigt Überwältigender verb ist to overwhelm Ah, right A question. Yeah, I always think Um is strange in English That you can overwhelm you can underwhelm, but you can't overwhelm Ha, can you can you whelm in German? I think you can actually only overwhelm. Oh Something you can underwhelm under won't erwältig nee and you can't wältigne. You can't vertigne No, just just even even fewer options here. Just over Very interesting. Okay, so leicht überwältigt slightly overwält von unserem empfangen empfangen ist like a welcome greeting in a sense. Oh, yeah, welcome Um erzählt sie uns erötend Um, she tells us is that like going red blushing blushing. Yeah, get off him Das Nadine vorerst noch hier bleibt Um

Das Nadine Is Like staying here Or first for now. Ah, right. So she's staying here for now An statt ins Ausland zu gehen Um in state of Going abroad. Genau. Perfect Something to eating during the meal Yeah, während dessen just means in the meantime here. Oh, why your Hannah talks and explains why they're so happy and talks to Erna For the whole time in the meantime Nadine just grins at her Right, so you're looking at that what während Desmond got the Essen also the Essen in the end. I think it's something to do with eating

But it's während dessen so dessen being An article ultimately exactly a tentative for like during during which for something like that So meanwhile Nadine grins Un unterbrochen Constantly can out without interruption and the Anne is going with Grinsed you can know and grinsen Okay Worauf Is that like weirupon at up on the Biden and Fangen the both of them the both of them both of them begin Verlegen zu kichan So they begin to giggle Yeah, Verlegen I again interesting word here because as a verb it means to To relocate something to transfer something like die Tiere werden den so verlegt like the animals are relocated Can also mean to lose something euch aber eine schlüssel verlegt like I've lost my keys. I've misplaced them

Yeah, but if you use it as an adverb or adjective here it means bashful or sheepish or like Sometimes even like shy embarrassed self-conscious So it's quite a lot of different meanings depending on the context and if you use it as a verb or as an adjective adverb Cool, okay, so you can kind of imagine them like giggling them to themselves a bit shyly. Yeah, okay Erna umarmt auch Nadine Und lässt sich von den beiden versprechen von nun an wieder öfter vorbeid zu kommen So erna umarmt auch Nadine. She hugs Nadine too Mm-hmm. Und lässt sich Von den beiden versprechen Um so versprechen ist promise Sehr gut. Intergestart. Yeah So she lays them Promise or she makes the she make them promise That's the that's the Idea. Yeah, so she makes them promise but it uses that construction sich lassen And then an infinitive and it's almost a little bit like an alternative to the to the passive because it means like she is letting herself

Being promised from them. So it's like she's letting something happen to herself And it can be in the context as like see less sich tragen. She's letting herself be Carried But here it means more like she's letting herself Being promised but meaning she's making them Promise her Right, so she's like allowing herself to be promised by them exactly grammatically But sometimes it can deft the context of allowing it and here it's more like she's making them she's making them Right, okay, interesting Um for nun an so that's like from them on. Yeah, say good Vider öfter vorbei zu kommen um Like yet more often to come by So to come by more often from now on exactly wonderful translated. We got the eventually Okay, well, there's quite a lot and there's a really tricky vocabulary. I feel in this one Yeah, yeah, there is and then some interesting constructions where like the

sich lassen plus infinitive Can be found quite a couple of times, but it's like it's often used if the passive is not used Okay, good to know so listen it for that and also all of the other interesting expressions we've spoken about as we hear the story the chapter one more time Haben sich wie üblich ihren moindlichen Kaffee mit gebeck geholt Im Moment sitzen draußen nur wenige Leute und drinnen sind auch nur ein paar tische besetzt Am Fenster sitzt ein paar aus der Nachbarschaft Und am Tisch nebenan drei Freundinnen

Am großen Tisch sitzen zwei Frauen mit jeweils einem Kinderwagen den sie sanft mit ihren Händen wegen Während sie sich leise unterhalten Normalerweise besetzt Juhanna diesen Tisch mit ihren Jura Büchern Wenn sie nach der Uni bei uns lernt Doch sie haben wir schon seit Ewigkeiten nicht mehr gesehen Wenn ich so überlege dann eigentlich genau seit unserem Gespräch Juhanna war untröstlich dass ihre Kommilitonen Nadine ins Ausland ziehen wollte Denn für Juhanna waren Nadine mehr als nur eine gute Freundin Gerade erst gestern hat erne mich drauf angesprochen und wir haben uns schon Sorgen gemacht Doch in wenigen Momenten ergibt alles einen Sinn

Ich mache gerade einen Espresso für Erner als Juhanna plötzlich auftaucht Ich kann es kaum fassen Sie kommt strahlend und hänchenhaltend mit Nadine ins Kaffee Auch Nadine strahlt wenn auch etwas Schichterner als ihre Freundin Erner kommt natürlich sofort aus der Küche geschossen und umarmt Juhanna herzlich Mit mitterlicher Sorge erkundigt sie sich nach ihr und auch ich grüße die beiden erleichtert und höre aufmerksam zu Leicht überwältigt von unserem empfangen erzählt sie uns eröntend dass Nadine vorerst noch hier bleibt anstatt ins Ausland zu gehen Nadine grins sie währenddessen und unterbrochen an Worauf die beiden anfangen belegen zu kichern

Erner umarmt auch Nadine Und lässt sich von den beiden versprechen von nun an wieder öfter vorbei zu kommen Now this chapter comes of course with our lesson was with our spotlight video our exercises and our vocabulary lists to help you get more out of this and further examples of all of these interesting expressions and you can find that at the coffee break academy just head to coffeebreakacademy.com And you can search for scenes from the coffee break German cafe there And if you want to keep up to date with all the things that are happening at coffee break German and want to get a weekly free email to learn and improve your German even further Then also head to coffeebreaklangwitches.com slash German and sign up to our weekly newsletter coffeebreaklangwitches.com slash German
