Keep learning and speak for yourself

Weiterlernen und selbstständig sprechen

Express a wish to keep learning, describe simple abilities and ask politely for correction.

Ich möchte weiterlernen expresses a wish to keep learning. Ich verstehe schon viel reports understanding a lot already, not everything. Ich kann einfache Sätze sagen describes a simple speaking ability. Bitte korrigieren Sie mich asks someone politely to correct you.

After möchte use the whole infinitive weiterlernen, not weiterlerne. After kann use sagen at the end: Ich kann einfache Sätze sagen. The first verb changes with the speaker; the final infinitive stays in its dictionary form.

Use the request for correction with a teacher or practice partner. You can describe what you already understand without claiming fluency. Finishing this lesson does not automatically demonstrate every A1 skill.

Ich möchte weiterlerne has the wrong final verb form. Keep -n: Ich möchte weiterlernen. This is not the same structure as a statement with lerne as the only verb.

Möchte expresses a wish; kann expresses ability. Schon means already. Viel means a lot, not everything. Mich is the person to correct; Sie is the person addressed politely.

Say one learning wish, one comprehension statement, one speaking ability and one polite request. Check the difference between wanting to learn and already being able to do something.
