Grammatik Intensivtrainer A2 Book

Grammatik Intensivtrainer A2 is an intensive grammar trainer for the A2 level — a workbook built for one purpose: to practise the grammar of elementary German so thoroughly that it stops requiring thought. Its method is intensity — short explanations followed by long runs of exercises on each pattern, with an answer key for self-checking.

The A2 grammar agenda is covered systematically: verb tenses including the perfect and the beginnings of the past, modal verbs, cases in their working forms, adjective endings, comparisons, prepositions with their cases, word order in main and subordinate clauses, and the connectors that join sentences. Nothing is decorative; every unit trains a pattern the A2 learner needs.

It is written for learners who have finished an A2 course (or are finishing one) and found their grammar fragile — students preparing for the Goethe-Zertifikat A2 and similar examinations, and self-teachers who want one book that drills the whole level.

Grammatik Intensivtrainer A2 Book cover

Intensive trainers occupy a specific niche in German learning: they are not courses and they are not references, but the practice volume a course assumes and rarely provides. This A2 trainer follows the proven format of its series — each chapter opens with the pattern stated compactly, in tables and examples, then drills it through varied exercise types (formation, transformation, completion, correction) so the learner produces the pattern dozens of times in dozens of contexts. The intensity is cumulative: later chapters quietly reuse earlier grammar, so the book reviews while it advances. With its answer key it serves the classroom as structured homework and the self-teacher as a complete A2 grammar workout; alongside the examination’s grammar demands it is near-perfectly aimed, since A2 examinations test precisely the patterns trained here.

About This Book

An intensive trainer is the gymnasium of a language course: the place where explained grammar is converted into usable grammar. This A2 volume covers the elementary level’s complete grammar with the series’ signature density — compact presentation, then exercise after exercise until the pattern is a reflex.

What Learners Will Practise

Verbs and Tenses at A2

The present in all its irregular families, the perfect with haben and sein, the simple past of the common verbs, modal verbs in present and past, separable and reflexive verbs, and the imperative — produced in sentences, not recited in tables.

Cases, Endings, and Prepositions

Nominative, accusative, and dative in their working patterns; article and adjective endings; personal and possessive pronouns; and the preposition system — two-way prepositions, dative and accusative sets, and verbs with fixed prepositions — drilled until choosing correctly is automatic.

Building Sentences

Word order in main clauses and subordinate clauses with weil, dass, and wenn; connectors and sentence joining; comparisons; negation; and question forms — the assembly work that turns A2 grammar knowledge into A2 German writing and speaking.

Key Features

Density with an answer key is the feature: very high exercise volume per pattern, fully self-checkable, in the established Intensivtrainer format shared across levels (A1 and B1 volumes follow the same design). The level discipline is the second — nothing here exceeds A2, so every page is relevant to the A2 learner and the A2 examination.

Who This Book Is For

It is for A2 students whose grammar lags their vocabulary, candidates for the Goethe-Zertifikat A2 and school examinations at the level, learners between courses consolidating before B1, and teachers needing a deep, keyed exercise bank for the entire A2 grammar syllabus.

How to Use This Book

Train in writing, chapter by chapter, and check every answer the moment a set is finished — immediate correction is what converts practice into learning. Keep an error log by pattern and re-drill your three weakest patterns weekly; before an examination, work the book as revision in reverse order. Short daily sessions beat weekend marathons: intensity in this book means density of practice, not length of sitting.
