Trennbare Verben
As you know, German verbs can have separable prefixes. These prefixes change the meaning of the
original verb, and make a new word. In the present tense, separable prefixes are separated from the
verb and placed at the end of the sentence bracket. The separation rule also applies in the imperative.
When used in the infinitive, however (e.g. with a modal auxiliary), separable prefix verbs are not
divided. As you will shortly learn, the participle forms in the past tense are also combined.
Common separable prefixes. Remember that this list is only a rough guide to the meanings of prefixes,
since their use is highly idiomatic.
Some German verbs have recognizable prefixes that are INSEPARABLE, e.g. they remain with the verb at
all times.
