배울 내용

Exploring different verb groups (I-IV). Understanding conjugation patterns.

  • Verb Group I
    If a verb ends in -a, it's likely a Group I verb; just add -ar for the present!
  • Verb Group II
    Group II verbs are predictable weak verbs that add -er in the present and -te/-de in the past.
  • Verb Group III
    If the verb ends in a stressed vowel, just add -r for present and -dde for past.
  • Verb Group IV
    Forget endings—look inside the verb for a vowel shift and end with -it for the past participle.

팁과 요령 (4)

💡

Look for the -a

If you see a verb ending in -a, it's a huge hint that it's a weak verb.

💡

Check the stem

Always look at the infinitive minus -a.

💡

Check the ending

Always look at the infinitive. If it ends in a vowel, it's likely Group III.

🎯

The -it Rule

If you are unsure of the supine form, try ending it in -it. Most common irregular verbs follow this rule (ätit, druckit, sovit).
