Games to practise vocabulary

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Games can be a great way of reinforcing the language for young learners of German. Interactive games introduce excitment and competition into the learning mix which can particularly suit some boys who are resistant to other learning (or teaching) methods.

Our German games are designed to be both simple to understand and quick to play. They are suitable for both children and adults and are designed to be played by individual players learning or revising German. The games are primarily based on matching items of vocabulary to our specially drawn topic pictures - this is done in a variety of ways in the different games. We also have a hangman game that encourages the learner with their German spelling (in addition to a pure spelling game).

All our games are available online and are free to use with all our topics - that is over 1000 vital items of German that are at the core of any beginning German course. Our games are accompanied by German lessons and tests to provide a vital free resource for German learners with limited (or no) budget. The details for each game are given on their own pages.

Grammar explanation

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The perfect tense is used to express things that have happened in the past in general. It is the most commonly used past tense in German.

It is used in letters, emails and spoken German.

It is used to describe something that you have done, but maybe do often and are likely to do again, eg:

This is different from the , which is used more often in written German for narratives and accounts of events, and to talk about one particular incident in the past, eg:

ich sah das Brandenburger Tor - I saw the Brandenburg Gate

The perfect tense could be described as the most interesting of the German past tenses as, apart from the subject that always has to be used, there are two distinct parts to it. You also get to play with the word order.

Did you know?

For many years, the Brandenburger Tor was the main city gate separating East and West Berlin. However, since the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, the Brandenburg Gate has now come to represent freedom, German unity and European harmony.

The Brandenburger Tor is one of most iconic constructions in Germany and is recognised throughout the world. It is one of the most visited sites - Sehenswürdigkeiten - in Berlin.
