The present tense in Danish verbs is expressed by adding an '''r''' to the end.<br />
<br />
The basic form of a verb is the ''infinitive''. In English these are words preceded by ''to'', as ''to go'' and ''to be''. The Danish translation of ''to'' in this case is '''at'''. Danish infinitives usually end in '''e''', and you get the present tense by adding '''r'''.<br />
