Hello everyone,
and welcome to our German Word of the Day.
And today, we’ll take a look at the meaning of
leiten
Leiten is the German brother of to lead. And they do share a common theme. But leiten does quite a few things that lead doesn’t do. Like giving us water and electricity, for example. Or setting up this Ikea rack Fälör. Or even giving us a nice start into a text, like right now.
