IchmöchteauchGitarrelernen. AuchichmöchteGitarrelernen. I would like to learn Guitar. I also would like to learn to play the Guitar. This may be used to emphasize that I also would like to play the guitar.
auch Occasionally, it is also possible to start a sentence with auch in German, but in such cases, auchdoesnot have the meaning of also but instead often has the meaning of even though, or even. Auchwennesmöglichist, sollenwir das nichtmachen. Auchwennesstürmigist, fahreich los. Even if it is possible, we shouldn’t do that. Even if it is stormy, I’m leaving.
Watch out! – Pass auf! Don’t get the German words ,,auch” and ,,also” confused. By itself, auch means also in most cases whereas also has the meaning of therefore, then orthus in most cases. Es regnetheute. Also wirbleibenzuHause. Sieistkrank. Siewird also nichtkommenkönnen. It’s raining today. Therefore, we are staying at home. She is sick. She will thus not be able to come.
