Was Tragen Sie Auf Der Party? - Using Adjectival Endings - Quiz

Max, Bao, Tom and Sarah are going to a party, but they have quite different taste in clothes. What do they decide to wear?

All you need to do in this quiz is add adjectival endings. There is also one item where you need to add the correct ending to... see morea personal pronoun. In order to do this correctly, you'll need to focus on the gender of the noun involved and its case, that is, whether it is in the nominative (the subject or doer of the verb) or in the accusative (the object or victim of the verb).

After the verb "to be", the noun remains in the nominative. So in the sentence, "Das ist ein roter Pullover," for instance, the adjective ending is -er for a masculine noun in the nominative. Once you wear the red jumper, however, it doesn't just exist, it is having something done to it. It is therefore an object and needs the accusative endings, as in "Ich trage einen roten Pullover".

Before tackling this quiz, you should make sure that you have worked through the Quizlet on Kleidung and that you have a good grasp of the rules for adjectival endings.

Here are a few words/phrases that you may not have encountered yet:

2. Max trägt eine gelb__ Kappe.

Explanation

The correct answer is "e" because the word "gelb" is an adjective that describes the noun "Kappe" (cap) and in German, adjectives have different endings depending on the gender, number, and case of the noun they modify. In this case, "gelb" is modifying a feminine singular noun in the accusative case, so it takes the ending "-e".

5. Sie trägt eine blau_ Mütze.

Explanation

The correct answer is "e" because the word "blau_" indicates that there is a missing letter in the word "blau". In German, the word "blau" means "blue", so the missing letter is most likely "e" to form the word "blaue". Therefore, the sentence should be "Sie trägt eine blaue Mütze" which means "She is wearing a blue hat".

Submit
6. Bao trägt eine blau__ Bluse und eine Jeans.

Explanation

7. Sie entscheidet sich, den gepunktet__ Schal zu tragen. Sie sieht schön aus.

Explanation

The correct answer is "en" because the adjective "gepunktet" is describing a masculine noun in the accusative case. In German, when an adjective is describing a masculine noun in the accusative case, it takes the ending "-en". Therefore, the correct form of the adjective is "gepunkteten".

Submit
8. Tom trägt eine schmal__ Krawatte...

Explanation

The correct answer is "e" because the word "schmal" is an adjective that describes the noun "Krawatte" (tie) and in German, adjectives have different endings depending on the gender, case, and number of the noun they modify. In this case, "Krawatte" is a feminine noun in the accusative case, so the adjective "schmal" needs to take the ending "-e" to match the noun.

Submit
9. ... und ein kariert__ Hemd.

Explanation

The word "es" is the correct answer because it is the appropriate pronoun to refer to a neuter noun, which in this case is "Hemd" (shirt). In German, pronouns must agree in gender and number with the noun they are replacing. Since "Hemd" is singular and neuter, the pronoun "es" is used.

Submit
10. Sarah trägt ein schick___ Kleid,,,

Explanation

The correct answer is "es" because "es" is the correct pronoun to use in this context. The sentence is incomplete, but based on the given information, "es" is the pronoun that would be used to refer to the feminine noun "Kleid" (dress).

Submit
11. "Vergiss nicht, dein__ Pullover mitzunehmen," sagt Baos Mutter.

Explanation

The correct answer is "en" because it is the abbreviation for the English language. In the given sentence, Baos Mutter is reminding him not to forget to take his sweater, indicating that the language in which the reminder is given is English.

Submit
12. Er hat auch ein blau___ T-Shirt an.

Explanation

The word "es" is the correct answer because it is the pronoun used to refer to a neuter noun in German. In this sentence, "blau" is an adjective describing the noun "T-Shirt," and since "T-Shirt" is a neuter noun, the pronoun "es" is used to refer to it.

14. Max, Bao, Tom und Sarah gehen heute Abend auf eine Party. Was tragen sie? Max mag praktisch__ Klamotten. Auf diesem Bild kannst du sehen, was er trägt.

15. " Das ist mein gepunktet__ Schal," sagt sie zu Sarah. "Glaubst du, er passt gut zu meinem Outfit?" "Ja. Dein Outfit ist super," antwortet Sarah.

Explanation

In this sentence the noun and the adjective occur after the verb "to be". That's why you need to use nominative endings. Bao is only talking about the existence of her spotted scarf. In this sentence she is not actually wearing it yet!
