I'll merge these two afterwards, but I need an on topic help here. Can someone check the grammar for my sentences? I'll take any advice/tips to improve my grammar. Especially little things that they teach little kids learning to read and write. :) Kristina und Mag sind Ausländerin (foreigners (girls)). Mag stammt aus Polen. Kristina stammt aus Lituaen. Kristina hat sie (her) Abitur in Lituaen machen. Kristina und Mag haben in Schule Deustch lernen. Kristina studieren nach Hamburg, und Mag studieren nach Düsseldorf. Krisitina hat Deustch une Mathematik Abitur ausserhalb studieren. Kristina muss arbeiten für ihr Studium finanzieren (kristina must work to finance her studies). Magdalenas Eltern finanzieren sie (her) Studium. Aber später muss sie ein Job machen. Mag will etwas mit Kulture oder Medien machen. Kristina habe Kurse in Volkswirtshaft machen. Vieliecht will sie etwas mit Politische machen. -------------------------------------------------- Abitur - exams? Einzelnen? Studium - studies? einfach? Also can someone check my vocabulary and help with the words I don't know?

Kristina stammt aus Litauen Kristina hat ihr Abitur in Litauen gemacht. Kristina und Mag haben in der Schule Deutsch gelernt. Kristina studiert in Hamburg, und Mag studiert in Düsseldorf. Krisitina hat Deutsch und Mathematik (no Abitur) ausserhalb studiert. Kristina muss arbeiten um ihr Studium zu finanzieren (kristina must work to finance her studies). Magdalenas Eltern finanzieren ihr Studium. Aber später muss sie einen Job machen. Mag will etwas mit Kultur oder Medien machen. Kristina hat Kurse in Volkswirtschaft gemacht. Vielleicht will sie etwas mit Politik machen. Watch out for the possesiv pronouns and take care of the prepositions. and=und (not une). In germany we say "die Schule".Like: Ich muss noch Hausaufgaben für die Schule machen. -------------------------------------------------- Abitur - exams? yes Einzelnen? single/individual Studium - studies? yup einfach? - easy

French Ofc Posts: 14,213 Group: iNcoG Teh WiZe Member #6 Joined: December 13, 2007	Hey if i wanted to say "Kristina and Mag come from different countries. This shows the diversity in Germany." Would it be: "Kristina und Mag stammen aus verschiedenen Land. Dises zeig die Vielfalt in Deutschland." ?

It's triple* btw: Main Entry: 1tri·ple Pronunciation: \ˈtri-pəl\ Function: verb Inflected Form(s): tri·pled; tri·pling \-p(ə-)liŋ\ Etymology: Middle English (Scots), from Late Latin triplare, from Latin triplus, adjective Date: 14th century transitive verb 1 : to make three times as great or as many 2 a : to score (a base runner) by a triple b : to bring about the scoring of (a run) by a tripleintransitive verb 1 : to become three times as great or as numerous <their profits tripled last year> 2 : to make a triple in baseball
