შენი მომავალი 50 ქართული ზმნა - Your next 50 Georgian Verbs ...

Learning a language is not only about understanding and correctly applying the rules of the grammar, often what it needs to take the next step forward in your proficiency, is just to increase your vocabulary – especially if you want to improve from B1 to B2 and especially when trying to make the long-haul leap to the C (native) levels. This progess or leveling-up can take one or several years and should not be dreaded but rather embraced with forgiving love, as it provides so many insights and opportunities to wonder and be amazed by the chosen language. It would be a shame to miss and just plow through with hard emotions! Learning a language is a process, not a specific goal!

Through last year, the number of verbs on kartuliena.eu has continuously increased from 300+ verbs to 400+ verbs; and 37 of the new verbs are provided with with full conjugation – all with a complete set of phrases and translations in English and German for each tense and mood. Overall, this amounts to an increase of about 30% in the number of the verbs and full conjugations that I thought is worth celebrating and sharing with you in this newsletter.

In the list below you find many of the newly added verbs, the ones set in bold lead to the new full conjugations, available to all dedicated learners with premium membership. Take your personal picks from these verbs to add to your vocabulary lists and flashcards! Most of all – enjoy and discover more of the Georgian language with each one! გაამოთ!
