Long Course Description 

Food is one of the most practical and enjoyable topics when learning a new language—and German Language for Beginners – Unit 3 is all about helping you speak confidently in everyday eating and shopping situations.

This unit continues your A1 German journey with clear, step-by-step lessons focused on real communication. You’ll learn how to talk about what you eat and drink, how to buy food, and how to order meals in a restaurant—essential skills for daily life, travel, and living in German-speaking countries.

You’ll start with shopping vocabulary and common food items, including fruit, vegetables, and everyday food products. From there, you’ll learn how to use indefinite articles (ein/eine) and negative articles (kein/keine) correctly—two key grammar topics that beginners often find confusing, but which are explained here in a simple, practical way.

Grammar is always taught in context. You’ll practice plural nouns, form yes/no questions, and learn how to talk about prices, quantities, and preferences. You’ll also expand your number skills by learning numbers from 21 to 100, making it easier to understand prices, amounts, and everyday conversations.

The verbs haben (to have) and essen (to eat) are introduced and practiced step by step, helping you build useful sentences like “I have…”, “I eat…”, and “I like to eat…”. You’ll also learn how to express likes and dislikes naturally when talking about food and drinks.

Every lesson includes an Übung (exercise) so you can immediately practice what you’ve learned. By the end of the unit, you’ll be able to talk about food, buy it, pay for it, and order it in a restaurant—a major confidence boost for beginner learners.

This unit is a perfect bridge between basic introductions and more complex daily-life conversations, giving you both vocabulary and grammar that you’ll reuse again and again.
