Conjugating Regular Verbs in the Present Tense Flashcards
Conjugating
To conjugate means to give the different forms of a verb depending on the subject. English only has two regular conjugations in the present tense, no ending and -s ending (I, you, we, they runvs.he/she/it runs). To conjugate regular verbs in German, remove the -en ending and add the following endings (* though some of these verbs require spelling changes in addition to adding these endings):
- e (ich)
- en (sie)
- st (du)
- t (sie)
- t (er)
- en (Sie)
