Grammar Breakdown

SchaudirdenStundenplanonlinean,umalleKurszeitenzusehen.

1

Imperative of separable verb

‘Schau … an’ is the imperative of the separable verb *anschauen*. In the command, the prefix *an* moves to the end of the clause.

2

Dative reflexive pronoun

‘dir’ is the dative form of the reflexive pronoun, required because *anschauen* takes a dative object when the object is a person’s own schedule.

3

Accusative article

‘den’ is the masculine accusative definite article, matching *Stundenplan* (der Stundenplan).

4

Purpose clause ‘um … zu’

The construction *um … zu* introduces a purpose clause; the verb in the clause stays in infinitive (*zu sehen*).

5

Adverb ‘online’

‘online’ functions as an adverb meaning ‘on the internet’, placed directly before the verb phrase.

Common Mistakes

  • Sieh dir den Stundenplan auf das Internet an, um alle Kurszeiten zu sehen.

    The preposition ‘auf’ is incorrect here; you need ‘online’ or ‘im Internet’.

  • Schau du den Stundenplan online an, um alle Kurszeiten zu sehen.

    In the imperative you omit the subject pronoun; ‘du’ makes the sentence sound ungrammatical.

  • Schau dir den Stundenplan online an, um alle Kurszeiten sehen.

    Leaving out the infinitive marker ‘zu’ breaks the purpose clause.

Alternatives

  • Sieh dir den Stundenplan im Internet an, um alle Kurszeiten zu prüfen.

    Check the timetable on the internet to verify all class times.

  • Wirf einen Blick auf den Online‑Stundenplan, damit du alle Kurszeiten kennst.

    Take a look at the online timetable so you know all the class times.

  • Öffne den Stundenplan online, um die Zeiten aller Kurse zu sehen.

    Open the timetable online to see the times of all courses.

Cultural Tip

German universities and many vocational schools publish a *Stundenplan* on their portal (often called ‘Moodle’, ‘Campus‑Online’ or ‘Stud.IP’). Students usually receive a personal link via email. In everyday speech, ‘online’ and ‘im Internet’ are interchangeable, but ‘online’ sounds a bit more modern and is common among younger learners.
