1 Session 2 Perfect Tense Starke oder irreguläre Verben Strong or irregular verbs

2 Like in English some verbs just dont know how to behave! They have a strong will and do their own thing. Thats why they are called strong verbs! The Past Participles of a lot of those strong verbs end in –EN. Many also have a vowel change (e.g. Ich trinke Ich habe getrunken) and others are completely irregular! To make it a bit easier for you to learn the strong verbs, I have tried to put them into logical groups. Viel Glück!
