Master German irregular verbs - the ones that don't follow the rules - with a visual technique that actually sticks.
Instead of drilling random vowel changes, Verb Wizard uses a simple keyword-character system. Eight illustrated mascots each encode a vowel pattern: the Ninja runs (i->a), the Cactus sings (a->u), the Angel gives (a->e). Once you see the picture, Praeteritum and Perfekt are hard to forget.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- 85 hand-picked irregular verbs - the essential core
- 8 character styles, each tied to a vowel pattern
- Learn 10 at a time with illustrations and native audio

Made by SmarterGerman. I built this app for my learners, and my full courses take you through all of German from A1 to C1: smartergerman.com
I absolutely love this app and use it again and again. The pictures are beautifully done. I can expand the story of the characters to help me remember the irregular past tense. I use this app frequently when I have a minute or two to refresh my memory of what I had learned. Sometimes when apps are done professionally there are too many distractions, bells and whistles, that make it harder to learn. Not this app! It is simple and effective. The verbs are presented in groups of 20. There are additional explanation videos. smarterGerman also has an comprehensive online course - take a look!
It’s so silly...it just might work!

It takes a difficult task and gives it a simplistic but really effective solution. The pictures and little ‘descriptions’ are sticking with me when it comes to the irregular past forms of verbs and I love that the creator took the time to come up with these tricks. Thank you smarterGerman!
