Hi !
“lange” is ONLY used in context of time”
Can you direct me to the discussion where this is, well, discussed?
Thanks
Jeff
I don’t really have one.
Happy to answer questions here though.
– Der Weg ist lang. (location … lange would not work)
– Das dauert lang/lange (time duration … lange works)
– Ich war lange /lang nicht mehr in Berlin (time… lange works better)
Ahhhh
Ich atme auf.
Hopefully I did not just say I wanted my lungs removed.
Felt like “mich” ought to be in there, but could find no example of it being reflexive
Danke
