    Goethe A1 German Irregular Verbs Flashcards

    Irregular verbs do not follow the regular pattern, so they are exactly the verbs you have to memorise rather than work out, and the A1 set is where to start. This deck collects the A1-level German irregular verbs and turns them into flashcards you can practice in a few minutes. Each card shows the verb in German, and you flip it to check the English meaning.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What are irregular verbs in German?
    Irregular verbs change their stem in ways the regular rules do not predict, so you cannot reliably guess their forms. They include many of the most common verbs, which is why learning the A1 irregular verbs early pays off.
    Do the cards show the irregular forms?
    The cards focus on the infinitive and its meaning so you can recognise and recall each verb. The full set of forms, including the changes that make these verbs irregular, is on the complete word list and the individual word pages.
    How does spaced repetition help with irregular verbs?
    Because irregular verbs have to be memorised, spaced repetition suits them well. You rate each card, the hard ones come back sooner, and your time goes to the verbs you have not learned yet. Signed-in users keep their progress saved.
    Where is the full irregular verb list?
    The complete Goethe A1 irregular verbs page lists every verb with its forms and example sentences. These flashcards are the practice version of that list.
