Third checkpoint. This stretch covered comparatives, the full possessive set, a restaurant dialogue, and the trickiest grammar point in the course so far - two-way prepositions. Worth slowing down here more than usual.
1. Comparative of "groß" (big) (Lesson 31)?
2. "His car." (neuter, no ending) (Lesson 32) - ______ Auto.
3. "Can I pay by card?" (Lesson 33) - ______ ich mit Karte zahlen?
4. Which question word signals accusative with a two-way preposition (Lesson 34)?
5. "The table is in the kitchen." dative (Lesson 35) - Der Tisch ist in ______ Küche.
6. "I'm putting the table into the kitchen." accusative (Lesson 35) - Ich stelle den Tisch in ______ Küche.
That's completely normal - it's arguably the hardest single rule at this level, since it requires holding a "have I described movement or a fixed position?" check in your head mid-sentence. The fastest way to build the reflex: narrate your own physical movements out loud for a few minutes a day (I'm going into the kitchen / I'm in the kitchen / I'm putting the cup on the table / the cup is on the table), rather than drilling it abstractly.
Grammar-wise, you're now solidly into A2 territory: comparatives, full possessives, and two-way prepositions are all genuine A2 syllabus items. Vocabulary-wise, you can now handle greetings, family, apartments, bureaucracy, shopping, doctors, transport, work, hobbies, weather, phone calls, restaurants, and furniture. That's a wide enough base to start layering in real listening practice - actual Goethe/telc audio clips - rather than only text-based lessons.
