für and seit to represent for..

Apr 11 (edited) • General discussion

I came across this while trying to make sentences in German:

For can be used in three different forms in different meaning like für, seit,vor(will post later):

für(for)-->Usage:when representing Persons/Things, Expressing Opinions, Definitive Time/Future Time

Eg:

I feel happy for you.

Ich fühle mich glücklich für Sie.

I am away for some time.

Ich bin wege für einige Zeit.5

Seit(Since)--Can be used instead of for to represent current ongoing period.

Eg:

I work in this Organization for two years.

Ich arbeite in dieser Organisation seit zwei Jahren.

Sie können mich korrigieren, wenn ich falsch leige! Danke! 🙂
