Stop Memorizing German Verbs [3-Step Formula WITH PRACTICE]

My German Verb-Conjugation companion article: germanwithlaura.com/verb-conj...
Learning German verb conjugations is tricky because German verbs have more conjugation options compared to English verbs --so there’s more that our brains have to remember!
If you want to speak German -even on the most basic level- then you have to learn how to conjugate verbs.
But there are lots of repeated patterns to German verb conjugations that make learning them way easier.
Watch to learn my 3-step process for verb conjugations so you can start making sense of German verbs.

Finally you came back.

[@LeandroSouza-we9mz]

Thank God you are back! Please, never stop again!! You haven`t got idea how important your classes are to me!!

My parents were immigrants from German and naturally I grew up speaking German. However, I never formally learned German grammatical structure and it wasn't until watching this video that I fully grasped why the conjugations were as they are since for me the language came naturally having learned it as a child and continued speaking to this day after many decades. When you explained the conjugations of verbs it suddenly made perfect sense to me in that while currently learning to speak, read and write the Spanish language I came to realize just how similar it is to German grammatical structure. In Spanish the infinite form of verbs drop the ending and then adds the appropriate ending to the stem to form the appropriate verb tense. Conjugations form an important part of the Spanish language just as it does for the German language, but since I learned German as a child without studying German grammar I never realized that, which lead to my a-ha moment while watching this video. Thank you for your excellent videos which I very much enjoy and look forward to learning more about German grammatical structure!

Teaching is not only knowledge but ART as well. You are the best artist of pedagogy. Thank you so much.

[@GermanwithLaura]

Very kind! Thank you!

[@HuskyHuskell]

I have read all your blogposts last month and can’t wait to see the final touch on verbs! Thank you for your work!!

[@flonations1323]

Yes so excited for your new videos.

My favorite tutor ❤

[@reececummins5127]

The best Deutsch tutor! Thank you Laura for the new content :)

[@markettaipo]

You are among the top five German tutors I found on KZbin, and I am able to deepen my understanding of this beautiful language through your explanations in each lesson. Thank you for your dedication.

[@ethanclement9647]

Laura thanks for keeping me updated on what you are doing. The word conjugation certainly rings a bell from my 7th and 8th grade German classes so I will have to try to wrap my head around what you are saying. Root verb with a conjugation tacked on the end. I did actually have a lot of that stuff drilled into my brain 37 years ago but it has mostly flown out! :)

[@kevinmaina8669]

Finally, welcome back and congratulations on the birth of your 3rd child. Looking forward to your content.

[@the5gguru]

Good to have you back on KZbin.

[@HerbalistintheHood369]

I’m elated that you’re back Laura 🎉 yayeeeeeee😊

[@abdulrehmansaeed9285]

You are amazing Laura. I just can't describe how valuable your videos are. Your tip to imagine things and then apply formulas is an absolute beast. Are you planning to make videos on reflexive verbs and prepositions?

[@GermanwithLaura]

Thank you for the kind words! I'm so glad that it's been so helpful for you. I don't have a current plan for those videos, but never say never! :-)

[@ibrahimesoubai6520]

Nice comeback. I wish you a very important stage in this field. Greetings and appreciation

Thanks for watching!

[@TarottimewithVi-vw9fe]

Hi Laura, I just wanted to tell you thank you for your videos, they are all great. It is a gift to be able to explain such complicated things so easily ❤. You are amazing and I will definitely sign for your free course and later for your paid one.

[@GermanwithLaura]

Thank you so much! I will look forward to seeing you in the courses!

[@TarottimewithVi-vw9fe]

@@GermanwithLaura Thank you!

[@batuffolinabianca]

I wish my teacher of German had taught us the verbal conjugation in this simpler way instead of making us literally CHANT the verbal conjugations.... YOU give us the tools to understand the process, my teacher just told us to memorize that's why I have forgotten 90% of my German.

[@GermanwithLaura]

Your story is the exact reason that I teach German in a different way. So glad that you're here!

[@vinodwilfred2884]

Ooh I like it very much your class thank you mam

[@MJ-tn5qp]

Willkommen back

[@amieurkhaled2700]

You are a Treasure ❤❤

[@christopherrumland9656]

Laura, you are the best source of German learning I have found yet! My question about this video is about strong verbs, weak & mixed. Do the conjugations follow the same path/order between the 3 types of verbs? Also, will you do a video to further help with strong, weak & mixed?

[@GermanwithLaura]

All three types do take the same pattern for conjugations, but the strong and mixed will take some other changes. I may do more on these verbs, but I do have some other videos to do first! :-)

[@ccbedardable]

Clearest and best structure you have given us, Laura, to learn verb and connected pronouns in German -- thank you! so helpful! Min 11:10 (Laura's pronoun and easy conjugation table) is the best way I have ever seen to help sort out in my head the pronouns, to then more quickly be able to conjugate verbs correctly in real life. Please do more of these, where we can simply follow along as you practice this same method for consistency with more verbs. Also, I would value a summary video in your style of the different verb forms -- present tense, present perfect, past tense, etc, up to the more complex -- yet with this same pronoun and conjugation table. Would value an English-speaking explanation of the various simple to complex conjugation forms. thank you!

[@GermanwithLaura]

Thanks for these suggestions! I will get them on the list. So glad you have enjoyed Laura's content! -Nicole, GwL Team

Sehr gut lererin

[@aiden6022]

new hair do! i’m digging it

[@grahamheiner4601]

Thanks! I now wonder if the English conception of a verb predicate, like "to study", messes with my understanding of the use of prepositions in German, because I automatically think a "to" needs to go with a verb (or more so than in German). I have "to" study, versus, Ich muss studieren. I don't need a preposition the German way in this example.

[@GermanwithLaura]

You are correct with this example! This has tripped up many a student. :) -Nicole, GwL Team

Next time you disappears, we will sue you to Court 😂😂😂 I am Super excited!!!!

[@MarsOhr]

My suggestion to explain formal address in German: formal address use "they" instead of "you". Instead of "are you comfortable?" it goes "are they comfortable?". If it is done in written form "They" must be capitalized. By the way: every address in written form should be capitalized, informal too, because of politeness. Goes a bit out of fashion nowadays, unfortunately

[@GermanwithLaura]

It would be kinda nice if they were all capitalized, right? Thanks for sharing your thoughts. - Nicole, GwL Team

[@godop4021]

What a terrible video. Regular verbs are easy. You started off saying we would learn how to conjugate irregular verbs like sein but never got there

[@gerryroush8391]

I have trouble with the Am Um Bei Nahe rhings😮

[@krzysztofciuba271]

Ich verstehe. I need to understand some original German to compare with (Eng) translation if I see some "mystery". One needs to translate an original language into a...normal one:e.g. "Das Nitchts nichtet" (of a philosophical moron, Heidegger) - it is syntactical nonsense: such sentence is Nonsense!
