Questions & Answers about Jeg går ned ad gaden til skolen.
Why is it jeg går and not something like jeg gårer or jeg gå?
Går is the present-tense form of the verb at gå (to walk / to go on foot).
A few key points:
- Infinitive: at gå = to walk
- Present tense: går = walk / am walking
- Past tense: gik = walked
- Past participle: gået = walked / gone
Danish verbs do not change depending on the subject the way English verbs sometimes do. So:
- jeg går = I walk
- du går = you walk
- han går = he walks
- vi går = we walk
The verb stays går for all persons.
