nouns have a gender. When you are

Part 2
Track 52
Listen carefully to a conversation between Marco and a pharmacist. Then
answer the questions below.
1. What’s the matter with Marco?
2. Has Marco eaten anything spicy?
Part 3
Track 53
1. How long has Marco had the stomach pains?
2. How often should Marco take the tablets?
Part 4
Track 54
1. What is the meaning of Wie oft soll ich die Tabletten nehmen?
Language tip!
German uses combined sounds in
many words. For example, Schmerzen
has s-c-h and Stunden has s-t. These
words can be tricky, so it is a good
idea to practise them and other words
with combined sounds.
Language tip!
In many cases, the German
expressions you hear won’t directly
translate to an English phrase that
you’re used to. For example, in English
we’d say How long have you had the
pains? The German phrase Wie lange
haben Sie die Schmerzen schon
literally translates as How long have
you the pains already?
2. When do you use Wie lange . . . ?
3. What does etwas Scharfes mean?
