Present of German verb müssen

The conjugation of müssen (have to, must) in the present tense is: ich muss, du musst, er muss, wir müssen, ihr müsst, sie müssen. As an irregular verb (preteritopresentia) the modified stem muss- is used in the singular. In the second person singular the ending is -t; the 1st and 3rd person are without any endings. In the plural is the unaltered stem müss with the endings -en, -t, -en. The ending in the second person singular is shortened by "s", since the stem already ends on -s. The formation of the forms corresponds to the grammatical rules for the conjugation of the verbs in the present tense. Comments ☆
