Questions & Answers about Dein Feedback hilft mir sehr.
Why is it hilft and not helfen or hilfe?
Hilft is the correctly conjugated form of the verb helfen (to help) for 3rd person singular in the present tense.
- Infinitive: helfen = to help
- Conjugation (present tense):
- ich helfe – I help
- du hilfst – you help (informal singular)
- er/sie/es hilft – he/she/it helps
- wir helfen – we help
- ihr helft – you help (informal plural)
- sie/Sie helfen – they / you (formal) help
In the sentence Dein Feedback hilft mir sehr, the subject is Dein Feedback = it (singular), so we need er/sie/es hilft → hilft.
- helfen would be the infinitive (“to help”), not a finite verb for the sentence.
- Hilfe is a noun (help), not a verb form, so it doesn’t fit here.
