The Present Perfect Tense: German Irregular Verbs

About the series producer: https://doktorfrag.wordpress.com

High definition video of class lecture slides introducing the present perfect tense using German irregular or mixed verbs. The video begins first with an example of the present perfect tense in English before moving to an examination of a similar sentence in German. The video then examines how the part participle is formed using regular and strong verbs, and then takes a closer look at how the past participle of irregular verbs manifests characteristics of both regular and strong verbs. Finally, the video concludes with a discussion of when to use "haben" or "sein" as a helping or auxiliary verb.
