How to handle sentences with two separable verbs and "und"?
Let's pretend the best way to translate "I shut and lock the door" involves a sentence using "abschließen" and "zumachen."  So, "Ich mache und schließe dir Tür zu und ab?" or what?  Does this ever happen, and how do you handle it?

Answer

You would say: "Ich mache die Tür zu und schließe sie ab".

Answer

I meant "die Tür", not "dir Tür."
