kochst

Kocht is the second-person singular present tense form of the German verb kochen, which means to cook. It is used with the informal pronoun du to indicate that you are cooking or you do cook.

In German present tense conjugation, the second-person singular ending is -st, as in kochst (du kochst). Other forms include ich koche, er kocht, wir kochen, ihr kocht, and sie kochen.

Usage examples illustrate typical sentences: Was kochst du heute? and Du kochst gern vegetarisch. These show how kocht functions within ordinary statements and questions about cooking.

As a word on its own, kocht does not constitute a widely recognized noun or topic in standard reference works. If encountered as a proper noun, it would typically be treated as a surname or toponym of Germanic origin, but it is not documented as a distinct subject in major sources.

Etymology generally links koch- to the standard German verb kochen; the form kocht arises from regular present-tense inflection for the du subject. The precise historical derivation of the verb is not detailed here, focusing instead on its contemporary usage and grammatical role.
