Hello everyone! Today, we'll cover verb placement in German sentences. It's simple once you grasp the key rules, though different from our language.
In declarative sentences, the verb always stands in the second position. This is fundamental. For example: Ich lerne Deutsch. (lerne is second). Er trinkt Wasser. (trinkt is second).
However, in 'Yes/No' questions, the verb moves to the very beginning: Lernst du Deutsch? (Lernst is first). Practice this core rule often!
