Learn German Past Tense Sein to Be and Haben to have from Wenigerode

www.woltersworld.com the past tense is simple in German, but when using sein (to be) and haben (to have) you have to use them a bit differently. From Wernigerode. I was - ich war, you were - du warst, he/she was - er/sie war, we were - wir waren, they (you formal)were - sie waren.
I had - ich hatte, you had - du hattest, he/she had - er/sie hatte, we had - wir hatten, you guys/ they had - sie hatten.

i am trying to get examples and kind of worksheets for each of the videos set up, some already have them on our site or in the 'information" part of the video.

i want to start embedding the subtitles, but just have not had time. i promise by the end of the summer almost all of the 500 videos SHOULD have the subtitiles. sorry it will take so long (trying to finish my phd so i just have not had any time) i do apologzie but i will get it, i promise! thanks for the comments!
