2.1 - What is Verb?

A verb usually describes what a person or any other subject is doing; 'I go to the cinema'. It can also describe a state; 'He is angry.'

2.2 - Verb Formation

German has more endings for verbs in the present tense than English. You take the stem of a verb then add the required ending. The stem is the form of the infinitive without -en or -n.
