Praten over het verleden — Perfectum
The auxiliary verb (hebben or zijn) sits in position 2. Everything else — objects, adverbs, time expressions — slots in between, and the past participle comes last.
Use zijn with verbs of motion to a destination or change of state. Use hebben with all other verbs, including most sports and hobbies that happen in one place.
Form regular past participles with ge- + stem. Add -t if the stem ends in a letter from 't kofschip (t, k, f, s, ch, p); add -d for all other stems.
