01WHY THIS PAIR

German grammar,learned by reading it in context.

Nominativ, Akkusativ, Dativ, Genitiv. Der, die, das. Separable verbs whose second half turns up five words later. These aren't things you finish learning — you get comfortable with them by seeing thousands of real sentences. Lex is built for that.
