When we talk in perfect tense (das Perfekt) you need to use a past participle (Partizip 2). Most German past participles start with ge-. But sometimes they don't.
In this video you will learn when you don't need to add this GE at the beginning of the past participle and why. Its all about prefixes and suffixes. They determine if you don't have a ge- in the beginning. Happy learning! 😊
