1 The verbs The verbs decline only according to tense, not according to person. The tenses are: Nutid ( now-time = present), datid ( then-time = past), f rnutid ( before-now- time = present perfect) and f rdatid ( before-then-time = past perfect). In the dictionary, the verbs are listed in infinitive, usually followed by the past tense ending: spise, -te: to eat. The major differences to English are: No continuous Danish verbs do not have a continuous form. I am running and I run will both be simple present: Jeg l ber in Danish.
3 The use of the tenses Infinitive Like in English infinitive – without at (to) - is used after modal verbs: Jeg vil gerne smage din kaffe (I would like to taste your coffee) Jeg skal arbejde på søndag (I am going to work next Sunday) Jeg kan svømme (I can swim) Jeg må gå (I must/have to go)
