konjugiert

Konjugiert is the past participle of the German verb konjugieren, meaning to conjugate. As an adjective or participle, konjugiert describes a verb form that has been altered to express grammatical categories such as person, number, tense, mood, or voice. In grammar, the term Konjugation refers to the system by which verbs are changed to reflect these categories.

In German, verbs are conjugated according to person and number in each tense. The present tense forms for the verb konjugieren are: ich konjugiere, du konjugierst, er/sie/es konjugiert; wir konjugieren, ihr konjugiert, sie konjugieren. Other tenses include Präteritum (ich konjugierte), Perfekt (ich habe konjugiert), and Plusquamperfekt, as well as the future tenses. German also has several moods, including Indikativ, Konjunktiv I and II, and the Imperativ for commands. Verb classes—weak, strong, and irregular—influence the conjugation patterns, and many verbs show stem changes or irregular endings.

The term konjugiert also appears as the past participle used in perfect tenses (ich habe konjugiert) and as an adjective (ein konjugiertes Verb). Conjugation varies across languages; while German relies on explicit person and number markings in finite forms, other languages may feature more extensive or different systems of verbal inflection.
