Review Summary

  • Stem + ending (e.g., -u, -i, -a)

Häufige Fehler

You added the infinitive ending instead of using the stem 'ej-'. Always remove the 't' before adding personal endings.

Wrong: Es ietu.
Richtig: Es eju.

You used the infinitive form instead of the 2nd person singular. Ensure the ending matches the subject 'tu'.

Wrong: Tu iet.
Richtig: Tu ej.

Wait, this is actually correct! Be careful not to confuse vowel shifts with errors.

Wrong: Es saucu.
Richtig: Es saucu.
