Why do we say he/she can, may and shall instead of cans, mays and shalls? That's because these verbs stem from ancient past tense forms. Compare he/she drank and he/she swam. The ancestor of can originally meant 'has learnt to'. Click the images for further explanation and examples in other languages.

things i like abt the german language as someone trying to learn german
-words are pronounced exactly the way theyre spelled
-english is germanic, so many words are similar enough that u can easily figure out the meaning jst by looking at the word (Milch=Milk, Buch=Book, Bruder=Brother, Schwester=Sister, etc etc)
-other words are just word+word and german is so Literal with naming shit so if u know some words its easy to kinda figure out what smthng means (Handschuhe = literally, “Hand Shoes” = Gloves)
-vocabulary is So Easy to remember bc of these above 3 points like frfr
things i hate abt the german language as someone trying to learn german
-GENDERED NOUNS can die (DER DIE DAS)
-DECLENSIONS are AAAA (DEN DEM DES)
-CONJUGATIONS as well are horrible (especially PAST TENSE VERBS and literally every conjugation of the verb WERDEN) (its so HARD to remember and understand)
-PLURAL VERSIONS of nouns are so DUMB (it makes NO SENSE)

Second table: to drink, to answer, to close, to sit, to offer, to go, to confirm, to need/require
Third table (modal verbs): can, may, must, have to, would, like, like (subjuntive vrs)

The interaction between the auxiliary and the main verb is inherently erotic. When the main verb can take both essere and avere it's polyamory.

Tomura: Who the fuck decided rendezvous would be pronounced like that?
Sako: Poor monolinguals. They can't seem to understand that other languages besides English exist.
Tomura: what the fuck did you just call me
Twice: He called you a Mongolian!
