Forscht

Forscht is the third-person singular present tense of the German verb forschen, meaning to research or to conduct systematic investigation. It denotes that a subject is currently engaged in research, typically in scientific, academic, or investigative contexts. In everyday German, it is used like other verbs of action: "Er forscht an einem neuen Medikament," meaning "He is researching a new medication."

As a verb form, forschen conjugates regularly: ich forsche, du forschst, er forscht, wir forschen, ihr forscht, sie forschen; past tense forms include forschte (ich forschte) and forschten; the perfect uses hat geforscht. The noun forms derived from the same root are Forschung (the research), Forscher (a researcher), and forschungsbezogen (research-related).

In usage, forscht commonly appears with prepositions such as an (at/in) or über (about/on) to indicate the topic or object of the research, for example "Sie forscht an der Universität" or "Er forscht über genetische Mechanismen." The term is widely found in academic writing, science reporting, and news headlines, where it often appears in the present tense to describe ongoing work.

Note: "forscht" should not be confused with a proper noun or brand unless specifically positioned as such. It is primarily a verb form in German, and as such, its meaning depends on the subject of the sentence.
