This homework is about how verbs ending in -er look in the past tense. The rule is that they all end in -de, unless it sounds better to end in -te: köper → köpte and ringer → ringde. Work from top to bottom.

| k, p, s, t, x | → -te: köpte, läste, åkte, växte |
| everything else | → -de: ringde, stängde, behövde |
| stem ends in r | kör, hör, lär (no -er in the present) → körde, hörde, lärde |
| watch out | känn → kände, glömm → glömde (double letter drops) · använd → använde · möt → mötte |
