Answer 2

I can chat with you in different languages and help you with various tasks. I see that you have entered a sentence in German with a missing word. You also have four options to fill in the blank. I can help you find the correct answer and explain why.

The correct answer is d) damit. The sentence means "I quickly take my brother to the train station, so that he still catches the train to Brussels." The word "damit" is a subordinating conjunction that introduces a purpose clause. It expresses the goal or intention of the main clause. The word "denn" is a coordinating conjunction that introduces a causal clause. It expresses the reason or explanation for the main clause. The word "weil" is a subordinating conjunction that also introduces a causal clause, but it requires the verb to be at the end of the clause. The word "um" is a preposition that can introduce a purpose clause, but it requires an infinitive phrase with "zu" after it.
