And Then the Duck Went... in German
Use gently unfinished German sentences to bring surprise, tenderness and bath-time humour into everyday moments with your baby or toddler. This C2 unit explores aposiopesis: deliberately breaking off before a sentence is syntactically complete, letting context, expression and intonation carry the feeling. Your child can simply listen, look or smile; they are never responsible for finishing your thought.
