    For me, that second verb placement always creates an element of surprise or mystery in a sentence. Imagine your pretty classmate starts by saying... Ich möchte (she wants something) Ich möchte heute Abend (Hmmm...she wants something tonight) Ich möchte heute Abend mit dir (she wants to do something with me tonight!) Ich möchte heute Abend mit dir bei mir (she wants to do something with met tonight at her place!!) Ich möchte heute Abend mit dir bei mir lernen. (Sigh...she wants to study) 😂😂😂

    I think it's insane the way the German language has so many different spellings for the definite and indefinite articles. Also pronouns come into that category. Der Mann, die Frau, das Mädchen. The man, the woman, the girl. What's difficult about that? To me it just makes German conversation more difficult.
