Goethe A1 Mixed Verbs in Perfekt: Past Tense List
German mixed verbs (Mischverben) form their Perfekt with a stem-vowel change like a strong verb, but they keep the weak Partizip II ending in -t. This page collects all A1-level mixed verbs in one place so you can practice the past tense forms together. Each entry shows the Partizip II and the correct auxiliary (haben or sein), which is everything you need to build a Perfekt sentence: subject + conjugated auxiliary + Partizip II.
