Review Summary

  • Stem + -s- / -si- + personal ending

常见错误

You used the 'you' ending (-sid) instead of the 'I' ending (-sin). Remember to match the suffix to the subject.

Wrong: Ma töötaid
正确: Ma töötasin

Do not use the perfect tense structure (I had worked) when you mean simple past (I worked). Keep it simple!

Wrong: Ma olin töötanud
正确: Ma töötasin

The third person singular needs the 's' ending in the past. It is not the same as the present tense.

Wrong: Ta tööta
正确: Ta töötas
