Rocket German: To Speak

To Speak Or Not To Speak

The changes a verb goes through depending on who the verb refers to as well as in which tense it is used are called conjugations. You have learned how to conjugate the verb “sein”to be before. The verb “sprechen”to speak will be one you are likely to use frequently, especially when you’ve just started learning German. You might want to tell someone that you only speak a little German or ask someone to speak slower. Therefore you need to know how the verb “sprechen” changes.

er spricht	he speaks
sie spricht	she speaks
