Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can recognise stem changes in strong verbs between the 1st and 3rd person singular forms, and I can understand short texts which contain familiar weak, irregular and strong verbs.

Show transcript
A strong verb changes its vowel in the verb stem of the 'sie', 'er', 'es' forms of the verb. There is no vowel change in the ‘ich’ form of strong verbs. Only verbs with a 'a' or 'e' in their verb stem can be strong. Verb stems with 'a' change to 'ä' and those with 'e' become 'i' or 'ie'. Use reference materials to learn which verbs are strong.
