Which literally means "Am I a citizen now?", with a hint of the feminine. Sometimes the verb does come first in statements, but only in the second phrase.

Correct German would be: Ich bin jetzt ein Bürger.

Nice try, but even the dialects don't **** up the word order as badly as that.

By your first attempt, I'm assuming they only require A1?

Put the effort in and you might achieve primary 3 level.

It is lovely to read someone I can picture saying "Gruetzi Wohl" to people all day long correcting German.

But seriously, expecting Scooter to write Hochdeutsch is as ambitious as asking him to speak English.

Bai bai, gặp lại sau nhé,
