Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can form yes/no questions in the perfect and imperfect tenses to ask questions about famous German speakers.

Show transcript
[er] at the end of a word is unstressed and sounds like the English ‘uh’. The [r] in female people nouns is consonantal and is rolled at the back of the throat. Change verbs to male person nouns by adding –er to a verb stem. To form a yes/no question in the perfect tense, swap the subject and the verb and send the past participle to the end. To form a yes/no question in the imperfect tense, swap the subject and the verb.
