文法の投稿シリーズ21 - Es kommt vor, / sometimes, there are times / 事がある

Dietz

Expressing occasional occurences, we use the grammar ”there are times, when" like in "There are time when you have to go the extra-mile.". 
This would be better to say in German by using "manchmal":
"Manchmal muss man sich besonders anstrengen." 
特に努力しなければならないことがあります。
Oft, abhängig vom Kontext, ist die Grammatik "es kommt vor" besser geeignet. 
"Es kommt vor, dass ich vergesse, wo ich mein Handy gelassen habe."
