To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
462. Here again will be noticed only the more important departures from the ordinary sense, or from corresponding English forms. Simple and Compound Tenses. 1. The simple tenses (§ 167), are the same in German as in English : the present and the past (preterit), sometimes — but in either language improp- erly — called the imperfect. The compound tenses are less complete than in English. 2. The English tenses formed with the auxiliaries be and do have no cor- responding forms in German. Thus : I...sland, am standing, do stand ; I stood, was standing, did stand ; I have stood, have been standing; I shall stand, shall be standing, etc., are represented in German, respectively, by the single forms only : ii^ fle^e ; ii!^ jlattb ; xi) t)abe geftonben ; id) ttierbe fte^eii, etc. The English student must carefully discriminate these forms in translation. It may be observed, also, that English has here a great advantage over not only German, but all kindred languages. Note. — An auxiliary use of t^un sometimes occurs as a vulgarism: id^ t^at eS nid^t fageu : rarely, also, in poetry.
