The golden rule for German sentences is "Put the verb in second position!" But what if the verb consists of two parts as it does in the Perfekt or when you use a modal verb? Luckily, there is also an easy rule to remember: verb part A = 2nd position ✓ Ich ✓ Meine Kollegin ✓ Ich ✓ Meine Kollegin Pay attention that the verb part in the second position always has to match your subject, e.g. Ich bin nach Stuttgart gefahren. (bin matches the subject Ich) |
