Separable and inseparable v<strong>er</strong>bs in the present p<strong>er</strong>fect<br />
When used in the present p<strong>er</strong>fect tense, the past participle of a separable<br />
v<strong>er</strong>b is divided by ge- while the participle of an inseparable v<strong>er</strong>b doesn’t<br />
have ge- at all. The stress is still the same, und<strong>er</strong>lined in the examples:<br />
Erik en Sanne zijn zat<strong>er</strong>dag uitgegaan.<br />
Erik and Sanne went out on Saturday.<br />
Erik heeft het theat<strong>er</strong> opgebeld voor kaarten.<br />
Erik called the theat<strong>er</strong> for tickets.<br />
Erik heeft zijn naam twee ke<strong>er</strong> h<strong>er</strong>haald.<br />
Erik repeated his name twice.<br />
Hij heeft met creditcard betaald.<br />
He paid by credit card.<br />
Separable and inseparable v<strong>er</strong>bs in<br />
subordinated sentences<br />
When used in a subordinated sentence, for example in indirect speech, a<br />
separable v<strong>er</strong>b is not separated. Neith<strong>er</strong>, of course, is an inseparable v<strong>er</strong>b.<br />
Examples:<br />
Erik zegt dat hij en Sanne zat<strong>er</strong>dag uitgaan.<br />
Erik says that he and Sanne are going out on Saturday.<br />
Sanne wil graag dat Erik het theat<strong>er</strong> opbelt voor kaarten.<br />
Sanne wants Erik to call the theat<strong>er</strong> for tickets.<br />
Sanne moet lachen als Erik zijn naam twee ke<strong>er</strong> h<strong>er</strong>haalt.<br />
Sanne laughs when Erik repeats his name twice.<br />
Erik zegt dat hij met creditcard betaalt.<br />
Erik says he’ll pay by credit card.<br />
Separable v<strong>er</strong>bs in subordinated sentences in<br />
the present p<strong>er</strong>fect<br />
When used in a subordinated sentence in the present p<strong>er</strong>fect, the participle<br />
of a separable v<strong>er</strong>b can be split up by the helping v<strong>er</strong>b hebben or zijn, or<br />
the helping v<strong>er</strong>b can be placed right before or right aft<strong>er</strong> the past participle.<br />
