german b German B - Helpful Verbs

[Alex Jordan]

Hi guys! I'm currently taking German B HL, and I wanted to share some useful verbs that are irregular/commonly used.

 

SEIN - to be - PAST PARTICIPLE: sein gewesen - IMPERFEKT: war

Ich bin

Du bist

Er/sie/es ist
Wir sind

Ihr seid

Sie/sie sind

 

HABEN - to have - PAST PARTICIPLE: haben gehabt - IMPERFEKT: hatte

Ich habe
Du hast
Er/sie/es hat
Wir haben
Ihr habt
Sie/sie haben

 

LESEN - to read - PAST PARTICIPLE: haben gelesen - IMPERFEKT: las

Ich lese
Du liest
Er/sie/es liest
Wir lesen
Ihr lest
Sie/sie lesen

 

LAUFEN - to run - PAST PARTICIPLE: sein gelaufen - IMPERFEKT: lief
Ich laufe
Du läufst
Er/sie/es läuft
Wir laufen
Ihr lauft
Sie/sie laufen
 

As a GENERAL rule, most regular verb follow this pattern with the following endings:

Ich -e
Du -st
Er/sie/es -t
Wir -en
Ihr -t
Sie/sie -en
 

Another good resource is a website I frequently used during my German experience: http://dict.leo.org/
This website has TONS of vocabulary, verb conjugations, and forums that definitely aid in the comprehension of the German language.
Feel free to add more irregular verb conjugations or anything else you find useful below.

I've always been fairly decent with languages - I know 7 of them now! So HL German just seemed to be a right choice for me. (:
