El Preterito Imperfecto Subjuntivo se usa para expresar deseos en el pasado... como Alberto que le dice a Julio, que antes fue a su casa y no lo encontro. Porque queria que le preste su escalera y que miren el partido de los Nicks.

In this episode, I talk how allowing beginning learners to focus of the communication of meaning, even if done with simple or less than perfect language, is ALWAYS better than trying to "get it right in the beginning".

German Stories starts from zero, and leads you to your goal in small steps
It's not difficult to create a learning story and jump to complicated grammatical structures early on, just so the author doesn't have a hard time writing. But it's very difficult to fit your writing into a well structured teaching plan, so that the student doesn't have too much trouble learning German.
We did it the hard way. Hard for us, easy for you: Luckily there's only a little bit of grammar per episode for you to learn. If you're curious about our motivations behind putting in so much effort, go to https://www.german-stories.com/the-best-way-to-learn-german

13: Paul schreibt mit Laura | Paul writes with Laura

En este cuento verás lo que le ocurrió un día a un burro que
ya no quiso andar más porque no tenía ganas.

Antes de comenzar la lectura:

1. ¿Qué le ocurre a un polo cuando lo sacamos del
congelador?

2. ¿Qué les ocurre a los cubitos de hielo
cuando los ponemos en un vaso de agua?

3. ¿Qué le ocurrió al burrito con el hielo?
Adivínalo.

 Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesora.

Era invierno, hacía mucho frío y todos los caminos
estaban helados. El asno, que estaba cansado, no se
encontraba con ganas para caminar hasta el establo.

—iEa, aquí me quedo, ya no quiero andar más —se dijo, dejándose
caer al suelo.

Un hambriento gorrioncillo fue a posarse cerca de su oreja y le dijo;

—Asno, buen amigo, ten cuidado; no estás en el camino, sino en un
lago helado.

—¡Déjame, tengo sueño! Y con un largo bostezo, se quedó dormido.
Poco a poco, el calor de su cuerpo comenzó a fundir el hielo hasta
que, de pronto, se rompió con un gran chasquido.

El asno despertó al caer al agua y empezó a pedir socorro, pero nadie
pudo ayudarlo, aunque el gorrión quiso, pero no pudo.

Welcome! I’m delighted to present to you 111 Tips for Learning a Language. Here is our tip for today. The first tip is to learn in a way which is most comfortable to you. You yourself decide how and what you want to learn. Well, be creative! There is no one right way to learn a language. Everyone is a unique individual and thus they have different interests when it comes to learning. Some students like to dive straight into informal conversation while others prefer to learn in a more systematic way using a textbook. Some students, like myself included, start by learning vocabulary. I take great pleasure in making flash cards for myself when I’m learning a language. When we learn in a manner which we enjoy we would definitely be more disciplined to keep it up. Ideally learning for ourselves should be fun and relaxing while stimulating at the same time with just the right oomph factor to keep us wanting to know more. Therefore, I urge you to learn in a way which makes you feel most at ease. Till our next tip and I wish you Inspired Learning with 111 Tips for Learning a Language.
