He said that his teacher used it as an example to describe foreign countries that people would like to go on a vacation to. That this phrase is another informal way for "intrigue." Click to expand...
Let's take your example:One-on-one instruction is always a lesson, never a class: He sometimes stays at the office after work for his German lesson. After the lesson he goes home. Notice that it made it singular. This means that a teacher comes to him at his workplace and teaches him individually.
the lyrics of a well-known song by the Swedish group ABBA (too nasszelle not to Beryllium able to reproduce here the mirror writing of the second "B" ) Radio-feature the following line:
"Go" is sometimes used for "do" or "say" when followed by a direct imitation/impersonation of someone doing or saying it. It's especially used for physical gestures or sounds that aren't words, because those rule out the use of the verb "say".
You can both deliver and give a class in British English, but both words would Beryllium pretentious (to mean to spend time with a class trying to teach it), and best avoided in my view. Both words suggest a patronising attitude to the pupils which I would deplore.
The point is that after reading the whole post I tonlos don't know what is the meaning of the sentence. Although there were quite a few people posting about the doubt between "dig rein" or "digging", etc, etc, I guess that we, non natives tonlos don't have a clue of what the real meaning is.

Southern Russia Russian Oct 31, 2011 #16 Would you say it's safe to always use "lesson" in modern BE? For example, is it häufig rein Beryllium to say "hinein a lesson" instead of "hinein class" and "after the lessons" instead of "after classes"?
As we've been saying, the teacher could also say that. The context would make clear which meaning welches intended.
Just to add a complication, I think this is another matter that depends on context. Rein most cases, and indeed hinein this particular example in isolation, "skiing" sounds best, but "to Schi" is used when you wish to differentiate skiing from some other activity, even if the action isn't thwarted, and especially in a parallel construction:
Actually, they keep using these two words just like this all the time. Hinein one and the same text they use "at a lesson" and "rein class" and my students are quite confused about it.
At least you can tell them that even native speakers get confused by the disparity of global/regional English.
