Revision activities / German study practice
Learning focus: Listening and Speaking. This original Grade 11 German exercise gives you a task, a suggested response and a follow-up challenge. It is classroom practice, not an official assessment paper.
Understand the idea
A spoken introduction combines a greeting with information appropriate to the situation. Practise meaning and pronunciation rather than memorising sounds alone.
Try the activity
Build a short introduction using Guten Tag and Ich heiße Amina. What could you ask an informal partner?
Attempt your response before opening the guidance. Show the steps, textual evidence or reasons that support your answer; a final answer alone may hide a misunderstanding.

Show suggested answer and reasoning
Guten Tag is a greeting and Ich heiße Amina means My name is Amina. Wie heißt du? asks an informal partner’s name. A formal address uses a different form, such as Wie heißen Sie?
Follow-up challenge
Practise both formal and informal exchanges with teacher feedback. Check that the form of address stays consistent throughout the dialogue.
Review your work
- Did you answer the question actually asked?
- Can you explain the method or evidence in your own words?
- What would you change if one condition in the task changed?
Use the suggested response to identify one correction, then attempt the task again without copying it. For an open-ended question, other well-supported answers may be reasonable. Ask your teacher to check interpretations or language forms where needed.
