This is the end of the exercise. If you didn’t get a perfect score (24), study Introduction to Old English §7.1.1 and §7.4.1, and then repeat the exercise until you can answer all the questions correctly.
Hmm.
Strong Verbs (elementary)

This elementary exercise will help you memorize strong verb inflections. Each sentence contains one of four very common strong verbs. Based on the Modern English version and the Old English context, decide what the person, number and tense of the verb should be (all are indicative). Then find the right form in the paradigm provided. To spice things up a bit the sentences are presented in random order.

Your goal should be to get a perfect score. Repeat this exercise until you do!
