Questions & Answers about Wir lernen morgen. Bis bald!
Why is lernen translated as "studying" instead of "learning"?
In German, the verb lernen is used for the everyday act of studying for a test, reviewing material, or practicing a skill. The word studieren looks like "to study", but it is a false friend: it specifically means being enrolled at a university or majoring in a subject.
Why is the present tense Wir lernen used for something happening tomorrow?
German frequently uses the present tense to talk about future events. As long as you include a future time word like morgen, the present tense naturally translates to "We are studying" or "We will study".
I thought morgen meant "morning". Why does it mean "tomorrow" here?
It all comes down to capital letters! When written with a lowercase m, the adverb morgen means "tomorrow". When capitalized as a noun, Morgen means "morning".
What is the literal meaning of Bis bald?
The word bis means "until" and bald means "soon". So you are literally saying "until soon". It is a very common and friendly way to say "see you soon" in German.
