In Danish, the verbs conjugate depending on the tense that you are using, not the pronoun.

The infinitive verbs always end in -e, and are always preceded by the phrase "at". For example: "at gå", meaning "to go" or "to walk".

To form the present tense, you have to add -r to the verb, and replace the "at" with the correct pronoun depending on your subject.

The Pronouns are:

Danish English
Jeg I
Du You
Han He
Hun She
Vi We
I You (Plural)
De They

Using the example of "at gå" (to go):

Danish English
Jeg Går I go
Du Går You go
Han Går He goes
Hun Går She goes
Vi Går We go
I Går You (Plural) go
De Går They go

This form is the same for phrases that end in an -ing

I am Going - Jeg Går
