WHITNEY, Ph.D. (Yale) Professor of German in Vassar College LILIAN L. STROEBE, Ph.D. (Heidelberg) Associate Professor of German in Vassar College NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY 1912 Copyright, 1912, BY HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY INTRODUCTION This book is intended to give a complete review of all important German forms and constructions, in connection with practice in writing simple prose and the systematic building up of a good vocabulary. It is suited for use in schools in the second or third year of the study of German, and in colleges in the second year. The first part consists of exercises, each of which is a connected piece of prose based on a German model and illustrating a particular point of grammar. Each treats, in the form of simple narrative, conversation or letter, some phase of daily life, the whole series affording a carefully selected and logically developed vocabulary of practical, every-day German. The book can be used equally well in teaching either by the old or the new method. Teachers who prefer to have no translation made from English into German can attain the same results by a careful study of the German model exercises with the help of the questions and by exercises in "Freie Reproduktion,'' suggestions for which may be found in Part II. These may, of course, be end- lessly varied and added to by the teacher, who will find in Parts III and IV further valuable material for repro- duction. On the other hand, those who desire more material for translation, will find in Part V longer con- nected prose passages based on the vocabulary of the exercises. Teachers are strongly advised, before allowing the English exercise to be translated into German, to have ill 926709 IV INTRODUCTION the German model carefully studied and discussed in class with the help of the questions, thus discouraging as far as possible the use of the vocabulary. An Abstract of German Grammar has been appended, which gives in succinct form all of both accidence and syntax that it is really necessary for the pupil to know. It will prove valuable for reference and for review and it is hoped that its brevity and simplicity will commend it to both pupil and teacher. It is our belief — the result of long experience both in school and college — that too much study of difficult rules and exceptions and too little practice in the use of the common forms is the greatest fault of modern language teaching. The material of this book, privately printed, has been tested by two years of class-room work in Vassar and Mount Holyoke colleges as well as in two good secondary schools, and has had the benefit of the criticism of excel- lent teachers, both German and American, to all of whom we here express our gratitude. Special thanks are due to the other members of the Department of German at Vassar College, also to Professor Davidson of Cornell University and Fraulein Krause of the Westover School, who have read the German carefully from the point of view of style and idiom. The table of declensional endings used in the grammar is the work of a former colleague, Mr. E. Taylor, to whom we here express our gratitude. We are also under obliga- tions to Professor R. M. Corwin of Yale University, whose classification of the modal auxiliaries we have found most useful in our own work and have therefore incorporated in this book. M. P. W.

All questions which concern the income and expenditures of each state are settled by its own gov- ernment and only the laws which concern the whole Empire are made by the Federal Government, which con- 25 sists of the Federal Council and the Parliament. The rulers of the separate states appoint the members of the Federal Council, but the members of the Reichstag are elected by universal suffrage and represent the whole Ger- man people. As mihtary chief of the nation the Emperor 30 watches over everything that concerns the army and directs the external policy of the empire. 84 Deutfd?Ian5 3. ^iftmfc^ a) Sari bcr ©ro^e ift ber Srftc, iDcId^er bic t)crf($iebcncn beut^ fd^en ©tamme gu einem SReid^e bcremigte unb er licfe fid^ im Qal^r 800 t)om ^apft in 9tom aunt beutfd^en Satfer fronen. 9^ad^ fetnem Jobe gerfiel ba^ 3Jeid^ in gn^ei 2:eile nnb ba^ ©ebiet ant 5 red^tcn JR^einufer murbe t)on jefet an 3)eutfd^Ianb genannt* ©eit iener ^^tt rcgierten Satfer au^ Derfd^iebenen ^anfem, aber bic JRcid^^fiirften murben intnter mfid^tiger unb immcr feltcner gelang c^ ben Saifem, fie unter if)re §errfd[)aft gu bringen, ©o h)urbe feit bent brei^el^nten Qal^rl^unbert, ate bie SaifertDtirbe bauemb an ba^ 10 §au^ ^ab^burg ilberging, bie 3)?ad^t be^ Saifer^ intnter geringer unb int 3cif)t 1806, aU Seutfd^Ianb faft ganj unter bie §errfd[)aft 5)lapoIeon^ gefontnten mar, legte granj ber 3^eite bie beutfd^e fi'aiferfrone nieber unb feit jener 3^it ift ©fterreid^ein felbftanbige^ Saiferreid^* — ©d^on feit ber 3^it griebrid^^ be^ ©rofeen ^atte IS ^Jreufeen eine fii^renbe 9?otte unter ben anberen beutfd^en ©taaten gefpielt; aber erft nad^ bent beutfd^^fran^ofifd^en Sriege (1870- 1871) fam e6 p einer h)irtlic^en 93ereinigung» 2lnt erften ^ctnuar, 1871, tDurbe ba^ neue ©eutfd^e $Reid^ gegriinbet.

Since that time ^tftortf^ 85 only Napoleon has succeeded in uniting so large a part of Europe under his rule. But after the death of Charles his sons divided his empire and from that time on the territory on the western bank of the Rhine was called France, that on the eastern, Germany. Germany was ruled 5 by emperors of different families, among whom the house of Hohenstaufen was the most powerful, but even the great Emperor Barbarossa did not succeed in estabhsh- ing his rule over all the princes of the empire. The power of the princes became ever greater and that of the em- 10 perors ever less. The house of Hapsburg held the im- perial dignity for more than five centuries, but when it resigned the crown in 1806, it had long ruled Germany only in name. The present German Empire has only existed since 1871, when the imperial dignity passed over 15 to the HohenzoUern dynasty. For a hundred years Prussia had been growing constantly stronger and more influential, and after Francis the Second had resigned the title of German Emperor in 1806, and Austria had become a separate empire, almost all Germany came under Prus- 20 sian influence. During the Franco-Prussian war Bismarck succeeded in uniting all the German states under the leadership of Prussia and on January 18th, 1871, William the First was crowned Emperor of Germany in the palace of Versailles in France. 25 IV. 2lnefboten 5um mixnMidjen unb fd?riftltd?en (Bebraudj 1. ^ic faulctt 2)icnftmabcl^cn: Sine fleifetQc §au^frau toedk if)vt betben ©ienftntctbd^en jeben aWorgen sur Slrbeit, fobalb ber §a]^n hai)k. ®a murben bie Sienftmabd^en fo aomtg auf ben ^al^n, bafe fie tl^n toteten. ©ie fiofften nun Icinger fd^Iafen gu 5 fonnen* Slflein bie §au^frau mu^te jefet gar nid^t mef)r, tDie fpat e^ fei, al6 fie aufmad^te, unb medfte bie ©ienftmabd^en t)on nun an nod^ fruiter, oft fd^on furs ^^^ SWittemad^t* !♦ SBann unb t)on iDent tDurben bie ©ienftntabd^en gelDedft? 2.

V. A Summer in Germany 1. Letter of Inquiry Professor Fritz Miiller, Dear Sir,^ I have learned from my German teacher, Dr. Edward Meyer, that you sometimes take into your family foreign- 5 ers who wish to learn German. May I ask whether you will have room in your house this summer for my sister and me? We want to spend three months in Germany and to learn as much German as possible in that time, for I intend later to enter the diplomatic service and my 10 sister wishes to be a teacher of German. We have both read and studied German for a number of years, but we lack practice in speaking and I know that one can only learn to speak a language fluently by hearing and talking it constantly. My sister is still at school and I am study- 15 ing at the university here, but our holidays begin early in June 2 and we intend to reach Berhn about the middle of that month. Hoping^ that you will be willing to receive us into your family and to give us German lessons during our stay, I 20 remain, Yours sincerely, Robert Walter. * See Exercise 14 and Gram. 30, II. 2 Construe: beginning June, ^ Construe: In the hope. 89 90 A SUMMER IN GERMANY 3. Answer Berlin, S. W. April 12, 1910. My dear Mr. Brown, I hasten to answer your letter and to assure you that 5 we shall be very happy to take you and your sister into our family for the summer. You will be the only foreign- ers in the family this year and this will be very good for you, for you will not be tempted to speak English. Neither I nor my sons understand the language at all, and although lo my wife has been in England and speaks a little English, I always insist on her speaking German with our boarders. Our High School vacation begins about the first of August and my wife and I intend then to take a little journey through southern Germany and to spend a few IS weeks in the Black Forest. Perhaps you and your sister would like to join us in this trip. You will certainly want to see something of Germany beside Berlin and you ought to spend part of the summer in the country. If you would like to go with us, we can continue the German 2o lessons through the whole summer and you will also have an opportunity of seeing a very beautiful part of Germany. You need not bring any books with you except the Ger- man grammar which you are accustomed to use. Please send me a telegram when you arrive in Hamburg 25 and let me know by what train you will reach Berlin. I shall certainly be at the station to meet you. Hoping to meet you soon, I remain. Yours sincerely, [Dr.] FrIEDRICH MtJLLER, 30 Oberlehrer. AERIVAL IN BERLIN 91 3. Arrival in Berlin Conversation Good morning, Professor,^ I did not expect to meet you here at the station. Are you going away? — No [indeed]. I cannot do that until the holidays begin. I am here to meet a young American and his sister who are to spend several months with us. They s telegraphed this morning that they would arrive by the express at half past eleven. That must be their train that is just coming in. Good-by! I must hurry to be at the gate when they get out. — I am sure this must be Mr. Walter and Miss Walter. lo Welcome to Germany and to Berlin! I am very glad to see you. — It is very kind of you to meet us at the station. I did not know whether you would receive my telegram, as I could not go to the post-office myself and had to send 15 it by a porter. — Yes, it came early this morning and you will find everything ready for you at our house. My wife and children are looking forward with much pleasure to your coming. But you must be very tired after your long 20 journey. — The train was so comfortable and we saw so much that was new and interesting on the way, that we have had no time to feel tired. — I have engaged a cab, and if you will give your checks 25 to this porter, he will get the luggage and we will drive home at once. — Is it a long drive? 1 Gram. 30. 92 A SUMMER IN GERMANY — Rather long, I am sorry to say. We shall have to drive across the whole city, as we live in Charles Street. — I am very glad, to hear that, for I shall enjoy very 5 much a drive through Berlin. It is the first foreign city I have ever seen, for we had only an hour in Hamburg this morning. It is always delightful to drive through a strange town for the first time. — I will tell the coachman to take a Httle longer way lo and to drive us through the middle of the city. — What beautiful trees! Is that a park? And what is that large building to the left? — That is the Parliament House and beyond it is the Tiergarten, the largest park in Berhn. You will have 15 many opportunities of seeing it, for we often drive and walk there in summer. Now we must turn to the left, for we live at the other end of the town, as I must be near my school. — Isn't that the Brandenburger Tor? I recognize that 20 at the first glance, for I saw a picture of it in a German book I read last winter. It is very handsome. — We shall drive through, but not through the middle, for only the Emperor and his family are allowed to do that. This is our finest street. It is called ^^ Under the «S Lindens." — Yes, I know that the largest hotels and the most elegant shops are on it. The street is very fine and broad, but I must confess that the trees are not as large or as beautiful as I had expected. But how many uni- 30 forms there are on the street! One sees that Berlin is the capital of a mihtary nation. — That large house which we are just passing was the palace of our old Emperor, William the First, whose LETTER FROM MRS. MULLER TO HER SISTER 93 memory we Prussians all honor. Opposite it is the monument to Frederick the Great. — I must come again and look at that. I have read a great deal about him and admire him very much. — Mr. Walter, you will be interested in that long, low 5 building opposite. It is the university, where you can hear excellent lectures on art, Uterature, etc. . . . This is Charles Street and we shall be at home in a moment. Here we are. We live in that house and I see my wife on the balcony looking out for us. 10 4. Letter from Mrs. Miiller to her Sister My dear Sister, I ought to have written to you before to thank you for the delightful books you sent me for my birthday. You could not have picked out anything that would have pleased me better, for I like Viebig's novels very much 15 and it is always so difficult to get them from the circulat- ing library, because they are so popular. I know you will forgive me for not having written sooner when you hear that our two young American guests have arrived and that I have had no time to think 20 of anything else. You know I was a little afraid of their coming, for I speak very little English and I did not know whether we could understand each other at all. Besides I had heard so much about American girls and how inde- pendent they are and how much money they spend, that 25 I feared we could not make Miss Walter happy here. You know I had to give her the little room next the dining-room and although I had had it newly put in order for her I was afraid she would not like it, but she seems quite satisfied with it and thinks everything in the 30 94 A SUMMER IN GERMANY house very comfortable. I wish you could see her. She is a charming, slender little girl with light hair and dresses very well but very simply. Her brother is tall with dark eyes and hair, and both seem to be very intelligent. Both 5 speak German very fairly well, so that we can talk about anything we want to. Miss Walter likes to go out with me mornings when I am doing my errands at market or in town; she is interested in everything she sees and asks me all sorts of questions, some of which I can lo hardly answer. We were all invited to a little evening party at Mrs. Professor Francke's last night, I had in- tended to refuse the invitation, but when I found that my young guests spoke German so well, I thought it would amuse them to go. Unfortunately Miss Walter had lost 15 one of her trunks and had no evening dress and there was no time to have one made, but we went down-town and bought a pretty white silk dress which was very becoming to her. I thought she would be very much surprised at our large department stores, but she says 20 they have just as big and just as fine ones in New York. But she is delighted with everything that is old or that that has historical interest. It is a pity that Berlin is such a modern city. How she will enjoy our trip to the Black Forest and the beautiful old towns of southern 25 Germany! The party at Dr. Francke^s was very agreeable and our guests met several nice young people, whom they hked and with whom they are to make an excursion by boat to Potsdam next week. Of course they both take a Ger- 30 man lesson every day with my husband and Mr. Walter intends to go to some lectures at the university, so you see they will have plenty to do. I hope you are enjoying your visit in the country and A TRIP TO THE BLACK FOREST 95 that you feel much better than you did before you went. Give my kindest regards to Mrs. Black and her family. Your loving sister/ Margarete Muller. S. A Trip to the Black Forest a) Mr. Walter and his sister had spent six very pleas- 5 ant and profitable weeks in Berlin. Besides the German lessons which they took every afternoon from Professor Muller, Robert Walter had attended some interesting lectures on history at the university. His sister was more interested in art than in history and she had studied the 10 history of art with a very inteUigent and cultivated lady with whom she had visited all the museums and picture galleries of the town. Both had gone often to the theater and had seen many of the best modern plays. They had hoped to see on the stage some of the great dramas of 15 Lessing and Schiller which they had read in America, but they soon learned that the classical dramas are only given during the winter. Both the young people had made (found) pleasant acquaintances among the younger friends of the Muller family,^ with whom they had played 20 tennis and made excursions by boat or by bicycle in the neighborhood of Berlin. But the weather had now grown rather hot, many of their friends had already left the city and had gone to the seashore or the mountains, and they began to long for the country. So they were both very 25 much pleased when Professor Muller said one day at dinner, that he should be ready the next week to start on their proposed trip to the Black Forest. '*I have really 1 See Exercises 4 and 21. ^ Construe: the family Muller, 96 A SUMMER IN GERMANY been too busy to make any plans/' said he. "Have you heard whether we can get rooms anywhere? " "Yes/' answered Mrs. Mtiller, "I have written to several places and I heard yesterday from the Hotel 5 Bear^ at Titisee that we can have three rooms in the third story with a beautiful view over the lake for ten marks a day. But they will not be free until the fif- teenth. Don't you think we had better engage them at once?" lo "Yes, certainly/' said the professor. "It is a beautiful place. We shall all enjoy the bathing and boating and it is delightful to be so near the woods and the mountains. My holidays begin the fifth and then I shall have time to arrange everything." 15 "I propose that we divide the work between us/' said Mrs. Mtiller. "You have enough to do with your school, so you must leave everything else to us. I shall be busy getting the house in order and packing. Miss Walter must read the guide book and decide where we shall stop 20 on our journey and what we ought to see, and Mr. Walter now speaks and writes German so well that he can get the time-tables, look up the trains, buy the tickets and order rooms at the hotels where we are to spend the night. In this way we shall be able to start as soon as your holidays 25 begin and shall have a week to spend on the way to the Black Forest." b) Every one was satisfied with this plan and a week later they were all sitting comfortably in a second-class compartment of the express train that was to take them 30 by way of Leipzig to Weimar, where the first stop was to be made. The day was fine and the young Americans * $otcI gum SSilrcn. A TRIP TO THE BLACK FOREST 97 were delighted when they left the flat plains of the north and entered the beautiful hill country of central Germany. At half past six o'clock the train arrived at Weimar and they drove at once to the quaint old Elephant Hotel/ where Mr. Walter had engaged rooms overlooking the market- s place. They spent two very interesting days in the little Thuringian town, which is still so full of memories of Goethe and Schiller that it seems to belong more to the past than to the present. Their next stop was at Frank- fort-on-the-Main, where they only spent the night and lo visited the old market-place with its quaint mediaeval buildings and the house where Goethe was born. The next day they went on to Heidelberg, for they all wanted to see the famous castle and the beautiful surroundings of this well-known town. Robert had also a couple of Ameri- 15 can friends who were studying at the university and under their guidance our (the) party visited the ruins of the castle by daylight and by moonlight, and they no longer wondered why Germany is so proud of the splendid old building which is as rich in historical associations as in 20 architectural beauty. It was hard to tear themselves away from this beautiful place and from the merry student life which one sees so much better in a smaller town. But on the thirteenth of August they had to leave, for they wanted to see at least one big German watering-place and 25 had decided to spend the last night of their journey at Baden-Baden. They found the place very interesting with its big hotels and its swarm of people from every country in Europe, but what pleased them most was that they had the good luck to see the famous Count Zeppelin 30 make an ascent in his great air ship. From Baden-Baden they went directly through to Titisee by way of Freiburg 1 Compare note, page 96. 98 A SUMMER IN GERMANY and all looked forward with pleasure to a few quiet weeks in the country after their interesting but rather fatiguing trip. c) The life at the lake pleased the whole party very much. S Their rooms were very comfortable and had a lovely view over the lake to the Feldberg, the highest mountain in the Black Forest; they took all their meals out of doors on a beautiful terrace above the water under the shade of great trees, which kept them cool even on the hottest days. lo But to the young Americans, who were accustomed to a much warmer chmate at home, all the days seemed cool, and they soon began to take long walks in the forest or to make excursions on foot or by carriage in the neighbor- hood. After they had spent three weeks very pleasantly 15 in this lovely region, they took a most interesting and dehghtful pedestrian tour through some of the wilder and less-known parts of the Black Forest and climbed the Feldberg. From the top of this mountain they saw in the distance the snowy mountains of Switzerland and they 20 would have liked very much to continue their journey to the south and to see that wonderful country of which they had heard so much. But it was now the middle of Septem- ber, Professor Mliller had to return to Berlin for the opening of school and the time had come for the Walters 25 to leave the country that they had grown so fond of. In Frankfort they parted from their new friends^ and while the Mtillers turned westward to visit some relations in Mayence, the Walters traveled all night in a sleeping-car and the next day embarked again at Hamburg on one of 30 the huge steamers of the Hamburg-American Line. VI. Abstract of German Grammar (References are to sections, not to pages.) 1. Capitals. The German uses capital initial letters, like the English, at the beginning of sentences, of lines of poetry and of direct quotations; also for all nouns and words used as nouns, and for pronouns of the third person when used in address with the value of those of the second person, but not for adjectives of nation- ality: thus, hit bcutfc^c (Sprad^c, the German langitage; fie ift franjdfifd^; etn cngltfd^e^ SBud^; but er fprtd^t (Snglifd^ unb Ucft ^cutfd^. Compare also 6, II. 2. Punctuation and Division into Syllables. I. The one impor- tant difference between Enghsh and German punctuation is, that in German every dependent clause must be separated by commas from the principal sentence. II. At the end of a line, division into syllables is indicated by a double hyphen. o) A single consonant goes with the following vowel: QC*bcn» 6) Of two or more consonants the last goes with the following vowel: SlHcr, ftn=Qen. But ^, pl^, fd^, ft and 6 are not separated: beut=fc§e^, tna=(^cn; d becomes M: be0lllf*fen. c) Compounds keep their parts intact: !5)orf=arat, l^cr^cin, 3. Gender and Case. There are in German three genders, muscu- line, feminine and neuter. There are four Pn5',p=^ : t lu^ nominative is the case of the subject, the genitive corresponds in general to the Eng- lish possessive with of, the dative is the case of the indirect object, the accusative of the direct object. 100 ABSTRACT OF GERMAN GRAMMAR S S S S I fjnBium seq laAajsi o t> o t> I -^^ Si^TJAviu jaMOA raa^g f -epjOM (^sora o o § «u I ni po'^nBiran pAioA ina-^g II I I -poijnBiuin A19J « ^lao W j> J> rAj H IS > r/j s "< o a> Q W § H-4 1 g a> r^ •-3 O < > 55 S ??

Adjectives. I. The adjective is declined only when used at- tributively or substantively; it remains uninflected when used as predicate, in apposition or as adverb. - For th3 declen-sion.of adjectives, see 4, sets II, III and IV. o) Indeclinable adjecti';fee are made from the names of towns by adding er: tbiw, *>ai JSerlCncr geOen, Berli?^^ life. h) Adiectif ea ATe often made from names of persons by adding the ending 'fci^; these adjectives are declined like any others: thus, bie ©octl^'fd^n ©cbld^te. c) Adjectives of nationality, when used to denote language, are decHned only when preceded by the article: bic IDcutfd&cn f predict! !Dcutfd^; tolc fafit man ba« ouf gronjflfifd^, how do you say that in French?; ba9 !Dcwtfc&e ift bcm (SngUfd&cn Derhxmbt, German is related to English. II. a) An adjective is often used as a substantive, either with or or without an article or other determining word. It is then written with a capital letter, but retains its adjective inflection: thus, bcr ©utc, the good man; ba6 ©d^one, the beautiful^ what is beautiful; hit iJrcmbcn, the strangers or foreigners. b) After ettDa^, toa^, m$t^, also t)tel and mcnig when undeclined, an adjective is treated as a substantive in apposition; it is therefore of the first declension and written with a capital initial: thus, eth)ag ©utc^, something good; nid^t^ S^cuc^, nothing new; but allt^ ©d^onc, everything beautiful. III. Any adjective may be used in its uninflected form as an ad- verb. IV. a) The comparative and superlative of adjectives are formed, as in English, by adding cr and eft (sometimes shortened to r and ft). They are declined like any other adjectives, but some of the commoner monosyllabic adjectives modify the vowel in the com- parative and superlative: bic {itngerc, the younger girl; ha^ 3nteref* fantcftc, the most interesting thing or things. b) The comparative is freely used in its uninflected form as predi- cate and as adverb; but not the superlative; for this, as predicate, is substituted an adverbial phrase with ant, at the: thus, bic Xa^t finb ftirgcr im §crbftc unb am filrgcftcn im SBinter, the days are shorter in autumn, and shortest in winter. The superlative with aufg (auf ba^) expresses an absolute superiority; with am it expresses superiority in comparison to other persons or things: thus, al(c ^inbcr Jobcn il^rc Slufgabc auf« beftc gclcmt, aber SO^aria fann ftc tDirflid^ am bcftcn, all the children have learned their lesson very well (most excellently), but Mary really knows it best NUMERALS 103 6. Numerals. I. The Cardinal numerals are as follows: 1. em(6) 11, clf 21. cm unb gtoangtg 2. grt)ci 12. ghjolf 22. gtDei unb aioangig 3. brci 13. breiscl^n 30. breifeig 4. t)ier 14. \>kvitf)n 40. bicrgig 5. fttnf 15. filnfge^n 50. filnfjig 6.

The German says eine 9Jitllton, a million, as we do, but simply l^unbert, a hundred, taufenb, a thousand, c) @in, one, is fully inflected [see 4: when used attributively, set IV; after an article, set III; as pronoun, set V]. It is uninflected in the compound numbers, ein unb gtt)angig, etc. d) ^eibe is often used for two: thus, ntcinc beiben ^riiber, my two brothers. II. a) After a numeral, a noun expressing measurement (unless it be a feminine noun in e) usually has the singular form: thus, ac^t gujj lang, eight feet long; gel)n taufenb Mann ftarf, 10,000 men strong; gmangig Tlaxt, twenty marks; but fiinf SO^eilen iDeit, five miles distant. b) The following noun, expressing the thing measured, is usually left unvaried: thus, gel^n gafe ^ier, ten casks of beer; glDet ^funb 2^ee, two pounds of tea; brei SO^cter ^uc^, three yards of cloth; ein paar 2^age, a couple of days. c) The same rules are followed after indefinite numerals: thus, cinige gufe, some feet; tt)k t)iel "iPfunb, how many pounds? d) The time of day is expressed by Ul^r, hour, which is not varied: thus, ein Uf)r, one o'clock; gef)n Ul^r, ten o'clock. For the half-hour, 5alb, half, is prefixed to the next higher number: thus, t)alb fed^^, half past five. The quarters are generally counted with auf, toward, and 104 ABSTRACT OF GERMAN GRAMMAR the following hour: thus, cin S5icrtcl auf brci, quarter past tw; bret 5Sicr* tel auf ficben, quarter before seven. III. a) The Ordinal numerals are adjectives formed from the cardinals by the suffixes t and ft, from the numbers 2-19 by adding t, from the higher numbers by adding ft; they are declined like other adjectives: bcr gmeite, ba^ fcd^gefintc, bcr sh)ansi9fte, blc l^unbertfte, bcr glDct unb gmansigftc, b) But the ordinal of etn is crft, brct forms irregularly britt, and ad)t, ad^t (not ad^tt). c) In enumeration the German says: crftcn^, first; giDcitcn^, second; brittcnS, etc. d) The name of a month is unvaried after an ordinal: ben ncuntcn ^ai, the ninth of May. 7.

N. fie G. il^rcr D. i^nen A. fie II. Reflexive Pronouns. The dative and accusative forms of the pronouns of the first and second persons are also used reflex- ively. For the third person ftd^ is used reflexively for all numbers, persons and cases. III. a) In ordinary address, either to one person or to more than one, the pronoun of the third person plural, ^k, etc., is used, cor- responding to our you; all its forms are then written with a capital, except its reflexive fid^. The verb agrees with it in the third person plural.

IV. The pronoun of the third person singular generally takes the gender of the noun to which it relates. But it is seldom used in the genitive and dative for things without Hfe; for it is usually substituted a demonstrative, bcr or bcrfclbc, or, if governed by a preposition (in dat. or accus.), a combination of ha, there, (before a vowel bar) with the preposition : thus, bomit, uyith it or them or that; bafilr, for it or them (literally, therewith, therefore) ; barum, for it, that; gcftcrn Icgtc i^ tneine ^xilk auf ben Xi\se of this tower, hterally what does this tower serve as or forf c) As an adjective qualifying a noun expressed, toeld^cr means either what or which; used absolutely, it is our which: thus, toelc^cS ^ud), what or which hookf; toeld^cS bon biefen ^ild^em, zi;/iicA o/ these books? d) SBcId^c is sometimes familiarly used to signify some: toollen <©ic no(i& ciniQC firfd^en? !Dan!c, ic^ l^abc nod^ toeld^e* II. S33a8, with the preposition ftir after it, is used in the sense of what kind of? It is then invariable, and the words to which it is prefixed have the same construction as if they stood alone: thus, toa^ filr ^rot, what kind of bread?; mit toaS filr ctncr gcber fd^rcibcn ©ic? 11. Relatives. I. The demonstrative bcr and the interrogatives tocr, tt)a^, toaS fiir and todd^tv are also used as relatives. a) ^cr and totld)tt are the ordinary relatives following an ante- cedent. In the nominative and accusative they are used inter- changeably. In the dative (except after prepositions) the cases of ber are preferred; and in the genitive only bcffcn and bercn are ever met with: ber ^naht, bcffen 58ater geftorbcn ift; bk 2tf)Xtxin, beren Untcr* rid^t id) bcfuc^c. II. a) SBer, toaS and toa^ filr, and toeld^cr used adjectively, are properly compound relatives, or antecedent and relative combined: toer reid^ ift, ift nid^t immer gliidflid^, he who is rich, is not always happy; id) toeig nid^t, t)on tocld^cm ^ud) emanb, some one, niemonb, no one, are usually declined (in the singular only) as nouns of the first declension. 3eber, each, every, has full adjective inflection and may be preceded by ein; {cbermann, every one, has only the genitive {ebermann^. III. @tn)a«, something, and ntd^tS, nothing, are indeclinable sub- stantives. A following adjective or (with tfma^) noun is in apposi- tion: ctlDag ®elb, some money, nt(^t^ SBal^rcg, nothing trv£. IV. 9D?and^, many a, many; fold^, such, and oil, all, before other limiting words, are often undeclined: foI(5 ein 2)?ann or ein foI($er Tlann, such a man; all ha^ ®utc or alleg @ute, h)a6 er mir getan l)at. V. 3SieI, mv^h, and iDcnig, little, are also undeclined, except after another limiting word; also ein tDtniQ, a little. Tlti)X, more, and it)entfier, less, are nearly always unvaried: cr \)attt tDcnifl SBrot, ahtx ha^ SEScntfic, h)a« cr l^attc, Qah er un«. VI. The adverb trgcnb is often added to give still greater in- definiteness: irgcnb icmanb toirb gu ^aufc fcin, soms one or other wiU CONJUGATION OF VERBS 109 be at home; gcbcn ©ic mix irgcnb cin 55u(^, give me any hook (whatso- ever) ; f ommcn ai ber ^dnig geftorben ift. USE OF TENSES AND MOODS 119 26. Infinitive. I. Any infinitive may be used directly as a noun, with or without the article; it is always neuter and adds ^ in the genitive: thus, er burftc bit \Xi)t nt(j^t bcim flff ^fiffe pm2 iirtefc qulUft, quillt quoll quiJtte quitt rfttft,rcit rtet ricte rieB ticBc rilf riffe nit txtit genannt ^nefen ^ttojfett $reifett,' praise' Cuetteiir'gush' IRaten,' advise' meiben,'rub' SRetften/tear' meiten/ride' IRennen/run' IRteci^en,' smell' aHingen/ wring' rannte rcnntc tang rdnge ge^ftffcit gcpriefctt gequotten geraten gerieben geriffeit gerittett getattnt geto(i^ets genmgen 128 LIST OF OLD AND IRREGULAR VERBS Infinitive. pres't ind. sing, pret.ind. pret.subj. imper. past part.
