^^ Yup, German is crazy like that. They also might have a random verb (not just a prefix) at the end of the sentence. It would be something like, "We are going to the store to go" in English (with the infinitive verb "to go" at the end).

(Oops, that wasn't supposed to be pointed at Kevin.)

Ja ich mag Deutch, weil es verben an die Ende der Satze haben.

Yes, I like German, because it verbs ad the end of sentences has.

Lucy and RU OX Alum, isn't it the infinitive at the end of the sentence, with other verbs earlier to in the sentence?
