The English word in the list should be 'stored', not 'stared'. 'Mouth' should be the only translation for Mund, 'body' the only one for Leib. And some German words have been misspelled as well: 'hinunterschlucken' (not hinterunterschlucken); 'desto schwächer' (not schwärcher); 'trug mich' (not tragen mich); 'Widerwillen' needs to be capitalized, like all proper nouns in German.

Personally, if this is some kind of German lesson, I don't think it is wise to take phrases out of context. The basic forms need to be displayed first, grammatical changes can be applied later, but within the entire context.

Hi, I am a German A-Level student. This quiz is based off of words/phrases I noted down from reading the 'Der Vorleser' book, to be used mainly for my own use. I have corrected everything, except 'tragen mich' as that was copied directly from the text.
