Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can use adverbs to give and respond to detailed responses in the past tense, form past participles of a range of weak verbs, and apply this knowledge when translating into German.

Show transcript
Use 'gern', 'lieber' and 'früher' with a past tense to mean 'liked', 'rather', 'in the past, used to'. Weak verbs form their past participles by sandwiching the verb stem with 'ge-' and '-t', e.g., 'gespielt'. Verbs with separable prefixes add 'ge-' after the separable prefix, e.g., 'aufgemacht'. Verbs with inseparable prefixes do not add 'ge-' to form their past participle, e.g., 'erlebt'. Verbs ending '-ieren' do not add 'ge-' to form the past participle. They add the suffix '-iert', e.g., 'ausprobiert'.
