Separable verbs & the sentence bracket

Separable verbs & the sentence bracket

In the simple main clauses practised here, a finite separable verb puts its prefix at the end: Ich rufe dich an.

With a modal, use the complete infinitive: Ich muss noch einkaufen.

In a subordinate clause, the finite verb can stay together: … weil ich dich anrufe.
