Lesson outcome

I can read, talk and write about activities that someone does at school using the 3rd person singular.

Show transcript
[o] can be either short (followed by 2 consonants) or long (followed by a single consonant, double vowel or 'h'). Remove 'en' from the infinitive to create the verb stem and add 't' for the 3rd person singular of most verbs in German. Use 'er' for he and 'sie' for she with the 3rd person singular of the verb. If the verb stem ends in –d or –t, an –e is added so that you can hear the verb ending –t.
