I am the person who submitted the question. It's so exciting that you provided a response! Herzlichen Dank, Mark und Andrea! Das ist sehr hilfreich!
Vielen Dank, Lila! We enjoyed answering your question and we're glad to hear you found the video helpful 😊
I love the concept of prefixes and suffixes and we have so many! Subtle changes to a word creating a whole new meaning. Love it.
We love them too! Thanks for watching 😊
Your videos and podcasts have introduced me to German learning, and word order Danke
Man it is so cool to get to know you by videos!! I have listened you so much. I'm learning German with you!
Danke Israel!
Vielen Dank für dieses Video! Ich hoffe die Serie nicht bald enden! :)
Hermoso, por favor hagan más de esto.
Excellent way to increase vocabulary!!
ganz gut Videos
Thank you. Although I knew most of this, learning what I didn't know was useful.
Glad to hear it was helpful!
Danke Ihnen sehr vielmals, ich finde dieses Video sehr nützlich, interessant und praktisch, dass ich ein paar nützliches Suffixes wissen und sammeln kann☺. Und könnten Sie sie für mich markieren? Ich versuche mich, einige Beispiele zu üben❤
+ freudvoll - freudlos
+ ängstvoll - ängstlos
+ spielvoll - spiellos
+ hoffnungsvoll - hoffnungslos
+ dankvoll - danklos
+ glaubbar, lustbar, notizbar, grundbar
.....und so weiter.....😋
Vielen Dank😉
Very often you can form opposite pairs with suffixes: respektlos - respektvoll, erfolgreich - erfolglos, gefühlvoll - gefühllos, lustvoll - lustlos, neidvoll - neidlos, farbreich - farblos, freudvoll - freudlos, and many many others. But I think in English the suffix concept ist very similar, but maybe not so powerful like in German: -less, -full, - able.
Thank you, Marc
Ich übe mein Deutsch durch Kommentieren, wie Frau Andrea gesagt hat. Ist mein Satz richtig? Danke!
Yes, well done! Gut gemacht!
Yeah but there's a lot more than 3 or 4 suffixes ❓❓
