Passing Along a Polite Request in German

In “Passing Along a Polite Request,” you will practise relaying courteous requests before hosting visiting children for a school project day. Formal indirect speech uses Konjunktiv I forms of mögen plus an infinitive to signal what someone is asking people to do—not what they have already done. Help your child identify the requested action, discuss the reasons for it, and decide how to respond.
