Conversation
In the meantime, Philip has found the station. He has taken the train to the city centre. The city – die Stadt, the centre – das Zentrum, the city centre – das Stadtzentrum. Philip will share an apartment with three other students. He is just ringing the door bell. Let's listen in:

Ah, hallo Philip. Ich bin Lukas. Komm herein!

Hallo means hello. Philip introduces himself. He says "Ich bin Philip." I am Philip. Put in your name and try it:

Very good. Philip's new flatmate also introduces himself. He says: "Hallo, ich bin Lukas." Then he says: "Komm herein." This means "come in". Komm herein! Philip is very happy to see the apartment and soon he also meets the other flatmates. Listen to their first meeting:

The third flatmate introduces himself. He says: Und ich bin Tim. And I'm Tim. Can you guess what Lukas suggested in the end? He said: "Trinken wir einen Kaffee?" Kaffee – coffee. Trinken wir einen Kaffee? – Shall we drink a cup of coffee? The others happily accept: "Ja, sehr gerne!" Yes, with pleasure. Ja, sehr gerne! Now, let's listen to the entire dialogue again:

Lesson 6
Background information
In the afternoon, it is time for Philip to go to his German class. He's taking a course at the Deutschakademie. On his way to the Deutschakademie, he already catches a glimpse of the city centre. Do you remember the word for city centre? Right, Stadtzentrum. Very good! Now Philip is in class. Listen to his teacher welcoming the group:
Lehrerin Stefanie: Guten Tag und herzlich willkommen bei der Deutschakademie. Ich bin Stefanie. Ich bin eure Lehrerin.
She says: "Guten Tag." This is slightly more formal than "Hallo" and we only use it during the day, not at night.
say after me:
Guten Tag.
The teacher continues: "und herzlich willkommen bei der Deutschakademie." - and welcome to the Deutschakademie. Then she introduces herself.
She says: "Ich bin Stefanie. Ich bin eure Lehrerin." I'm Stefanie. I'm your teacher. Lehrerin – teacher – Lehrerin. Now the teacher wants to know the students' names. She asks Philip:
Lehrerin Stefanie: Wie heißt du?
"Wie heißt du?" means "What's your name?". Wie heißt du? Philip answers:
Philip: Ich heiße Philip.
This means "My name is Philip." Now the teacher wants to know where the students come from. She asks:
Lehrerin Stefanie: Woher kommst du?
"Woher" means "where from". "du" means "you". Woher kommst du? Where do you come from? Philip replies:
Philip: Ich komme aus Frankreich.
This means "I come from France." Let's listen to the entire conversation again:
