express/declare Explanation: because this is the past tense and the endings are added to the stem the stem is the part of the word in front of -er, so the n at the end is not used in this tense -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-17 23:47:36 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- My keyboard is designed for Swiss German - I just changed the language, but this might only work in the German speaking countries. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-17 23:54:13 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- should be expressed or declared as the verb is in the past tense -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-18 00:11:50 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- more examples: liefern- past: lieferte kaufen- past: kaufte I think the rule I mentioned is not perfect. Usually you leave out the endings (like -en), but with the ending - ern, you leave out the - n -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-18 00:17:13 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- so the stem of äußerte is äußer and then you add the appropriate ending to define the person and tense ich äußer-e du äußer-st Präsens |
