CONTD# Simple Present Tense The simple present tense of both the weak and the strong verbs is formed by adding the personal endings for the present tense to the infinitive stem. In German, the infinitive is the dictionary form of the verb. Typically, an infinitive ends in -en, although a few end in -eln, -ern, or -n. The infinitive stem is derived by dropping the -en or -n from the infinitive. Infinitive - Denken Infinitive stem - Denk English - to think Infinitive - Singen Infinitive stem - Sing English - to sing Infinitive - handeln Infinitive stem - handel English - to do or act. It can also mean trade and deal Infinitive - wandern Infinitive stem - wander English - to travel or to hike... It can also mean to move or to migrate Infinitive - tun Infinitive stem - tu English - to do, put or act Infinitive - trinken Infinitive stem - trink The present tense personal endings that must be added to the infinitive stem are as follows. First person - e Second person - st Third person - t Thus, the fully conjugated present tense of denken is as follows. First person - ich denke Second person - du denkst Third person - er/sie/es denkt Note on Personal Endings In informal conversational German, the -e ending of the first person is often dropped. ich tu’ das nie - I never do that. Ich glaub’ nicht - I don’t think so Ich geh’ nach Hause - I'm going home [b]note: There is only one present tense form in German. Thus, the three forms of the present tense in English, I think, I do think, and I am thinking, are all translated with ich denke. Below are some examples of present tense verbs used in sentences. Wir kaufen einen Wagen - we are buying a car Er singt zu laut - He is singing too loudly Ich kenne den Mann - I know the man 1 Like 1 Share |

Variations in Personal Endings Additional e When an infinitive stem ends in -d, -t, -m, -n preceded by a consonant other than -l or -r, the endings in the second and third person singular and the second person plural are expanded by adding an e before the personal endings. The pattern for the personal endings of such verbs is as follows Singular First person - e Second person - est Third person - et Plural First person - en Second person - et Third person - en Thus, the fully conjugated present tense for arbeiten work is as follows. For singular First person - ich arbeite Second person - du arbeitest Third person - er/sie/es arbeitet For plural First person - wir arbeiten Second person - Ihr arbeitet Third person - sie/Sie arbeiten More examples Sie badet das Kind - she is bathing the child Es regnet schön wieder - It's raining again Er atmet langsam - he is breathing slowly Er blutet sehr stark - he is bleeding severely Warum öffnest du die Tür? - why are you opening the door? |

klexycole:Good. In no time, you will start constructing sentences in German. From what i have posted so far, you should have known many things by now German sentences is simple if you follow the grammar rules. Lemme give you an example Basic German sentences is like this.... Subject + verb + object Ich lerne Deutsch.... Which means am learning German ich is the subject, lerne is the verb and Deutsch is the object. Another example... du liest eine Zeitung( this means you are reading a newspaper) *Just keep it at the back of your mind that VERB is always at the 2nd position except in a subordinate clause And if you want to ask a question, the verb will come first..... Example is Liest du( are you reading) or i can even form a longer sentence : Liest du gern Harry Potter ( do you like reading Harry Potter) So, boss i will advice you practice very well because practice makes perfection. If not because of school work, i should have entered A2 level since. My pronunciation is good and am learning german phrases everyday. 2 phrases everyday because i still have to read my notes. What you need most is commitment and practice. German would be easy for you once you have these attributes. Set a schedule for German lesson. Follow the schedule diligently Learn 2 to 5 phrases everyday and atleast 1 verb with its ending. Practice on Saturday or Sunday Change your phone language to German Download German dictionary and DW application on PLAYSTORE If you follow these tips boss, i swear German would be very easy for you. 2 Likes 1 Share |

No additional s sound When the stem of the infinitive ends in -s, -ß, -x, -z,[/b[ the personal ending for the second person singular is [b]t (rather than -st). No additional s sound is required. Thus, the forms of the second and third person singular are identical. All other endings are regular. Tanzt du gern? - do you like to dance Klexycole küsst gern - klexycole likes kissing. Reist du wieder nach Nigeria? - Are you traveling to Nigeria again? The following verbs belong to this group hassen - to hate beißen - to bite Mixen - to mix Heißen - to be called grüßen - to greet Setzen - to set Sitzen - to sit ## Infinitives ending in -eln, -ern If an infinitive ends in -eln, the e preceding the -ln is dropped in the first person singular. All other forms retain the e. Ich klingle - I am ringing or i ring If the infinitive ends in -eln or -ern, the ending in the first- and third-person plural is -n, not -en. Thus, these forms are identical to the infinitive. *Klingeln ich klingle du klingelst er klingelt wir klingeln ihr klingelt sie klingeln *For füttern ich füttere du fütterst er füttert wir füttern ihr füttert sie füttern For example: Wir füttern den Hund (We are feeding the dog) The infinitives of the following verbs end in -eln or -ern behandeln - to treat füttern - to feed klingeln - to ring lächeln - to smile klettern - to climb wandern - to hike bewundern - to admire ändern - to change |

Stem Vowel Changes in Strong Verbs in the Present Tense Many strong verbs in German have a vowel change in the stem of the present tense in the second and third-person singular forms. Most strong verbs containing [b[a, au, e[/b] undergo this vowel change. They can be grouped according to the changes that take place. Changes from a, au to ä, äu Verbs with the stem vowels a and au change to ä and äu, respectively, in the second and third person singular. For example Ich fahre du fährst er fährt wir fahren ihr fährt Sie fahren Another example Ich laufe du läufst er läuft wir laufen ihr lauft Sie laufen The following verbs use the same pattern as fahren. backen - to bake blasen - to blow fangen - to catch empfangen - to receive fallen - to fall graben - to dig halten - to stop/hold schlafen - to sleep schlagen - to hit/beat The following verbs change au to äu. laufen - to run saufen - to drink(of animals, people in excess) It's been a while guys |

Cases of Nouns German has four cases. These cases signal how nouns (and pronouns, too) are used within a sentence, clause, or phrase. Nouns (words such as ‘man’, ‘house’, ‘dog’) play different roles in a sentence or clause. For example, a noun can be the agent of what is happening (‘Dog bites man’) or it can be in the position where the action of the verb happens to it (‘Dog bites man’). In German, these different roles are signalled by the case. The cases are the following. •Nominative •Accusative •Dative •Genitive How does this compare to English? You know that a noun is a subject when it comes before the verb. If it is an object, it comes after the verb. But normally the case isn’t evident, except when you use pronouns: ‘he’/‘she’/‘it’ etc.: Take this as an example; Klexycole loves Pecky - He loves her Pecky loves Klexycole  - She loves him |

Most German nouns do not change their endings for the various cases. However, the articles or adjectives preceding the nouns do change their forms to reflect the case. Thus, it is often necessary to look to the article and/or adjective in order to be able to identify the case of a noun. We have 2 types of articles 1)Definite articles - der, die, das 2) Indefinite article - ein, ein, eine 1. The definite article (der, das, die) is used to refer to a particular or specific person, place, or thing. Der Arzt hat montags Sprechstunde. - The doctor has office hours on Mondays. Here we are speaking of a particular doctor. 2. The indefinite article (ein, ein, eine) is used to refer to an unspecified person, place, or thing. Ein Arzt hat viele Patienten. - A doctor has many patients In this case we are not referring to a particular doctor ## As noted at the beginning of this thread, it is the definite article (der, das, die) that most clearly indicates the gender of a noun. Due to the changes in the endings of the definite article, the definite article is also most useful in identifying the case of a noun. The group of words that take the same grammatical endings as the definite article are referred to as “der” words. •Dieser - This •Jener - That •Jeder - Each, every •Mancher - Many •Solcher - Such •Welcher - Which Similarly, the group of words that take the same grammatical endings as the indefinite article (ein, ein, eine) are referred to as “ein” words. •Mein - my •Dein - your(familiar singular) •Sein - his or its •ihr - her or their •Ihr - your(plural) Note that the first ihr starts with lower case letter i while the second one start with upper case letter i unser - our euer - your(familiar plural) These “ein” words are also referred to as possessive adjectives, since their function is to describe the nouns they modify by indicating possession or ownership Note : The possessive adjective euer usually contracts by dropping the last (and unstressed) e of the stem when an adjective ending is added. eu(e)re Kinder - eure Kinder eu(e)re Hunde - eure Hunde However, the possessive adjective unser usually does not contract but rather retains its unstressed e, even when it is followed by an adjective ending, particularly in written German uns(e)re Kinder - unsere Kinder uns(e)re Hunde - unsere Hunde |

Factors which determine case There are three factors which determine case. I have explained one of them above: the case is determined by the role the noun plays in the sentence; is it a subject or an object? There are two more factors, which decide what case must be used: the verb, and prepositions in the sentence. Verbs The verb determines which case you use for the object: • The majority of verbs require the accusative. • Certain verbs always require the dative (for example, helfen ‘to help’ or gehören ‘to belong’). • Very few verbs take the genitive case. If you have a verb which requires the dative case, then the object in the German sentence must be in the dative even if it would be a direct object in English: Example: Der Mann hilft der Frau. Meaning; The man helps the woman In German, ‘the woman’ is in the dative case (der Frau) because helfen is a verb after which you must always use the dative. So take note � Prepositions Prepositions in German (words such as English ‘at’, ‘on’, ‘to’, ‘for’) require a certain case. • Some of them take the accusative (for example durch ‘through’ or für ‘for’. • Some prepositions take the dative (for example mit ‘with’ or von ‘from’. • Very few prepositions take the genitive. If you have a preposition which requires the accusative case, then the object in the German sentence must be in the accusative, even if it would be an indirect object in English: Example: Ich kaufe einen Roman für meinen Freund Meaning: I’m buying a novel for my friend. In English, ‘for my friend’ is the indirect object, but in German für meinen Freund is in the accusative case because für is one of the prepositions after which you must always use the accusative. Summary of basic principles Like i said earlier, the use of cases is determined by three principles: 1) Whether the noun is the subject or the object of the sentence used 2) Verb used 3) Any prepositions used Note: It is particularly important to learn which verbs take the dative, and which prepositions govern which case. #Shalom |
