Many podcast apps take Apple's reviews and algorithm for their own app. And that means if we do well on Apple podcasts, then we do well on almost all podcast apps.

And that is why reviews on Apple podcasts are so important to us. Well, yeah, sadly the online world doesn't care about reviews on other apps. So if you enjoy our content, help us out by writing us a review on Apple podcasts only.

The link is in the show notes. And if that doesn't work, just launch the Apple podcast app. And then you search for German stories, learn German with stories. And then you scroll down to ratings and reviews and tap on write a review.

And then show us some love in your review. Thank you very much. We appreciate it. Got it? Then you're awesome! We highly recommend you to go back to the beginning and listen again to Paul getting jealous for not being invited to Tim's sister's wedding.

Let's look at today's little piece of grammar. When you ask something with a W question, your sentence has this basic structure.

First comes the W question word. Wer, wie, wo, was, wann, or, warum? Then comes the verb. What are they doing?

And then the rest of the sentence. For example, wo ist die Frau? Wo? W question word. Ist verb.

And then die Frau is the rest of the sentence. Where is the woman? And just like in English, the sentence ends with a question mark.

Frequently asked questions

The wedding is tomorrow.

First comes the W-question word, then the verb, and then the rest of the sentence.

With we, they, and you formal, the regular verb is not changed.
