Classes VI and VII of the strong verbs are specifically Germanic (they have no counterparts in other Indo-European languages), and are characterized by the fact that the vowel of the infinitive was repeated in the form of the Participle II, and the vowel in the past tense forms was the same for both the singular and the plural:

Class VI The formula of gradation here is

a - o - o - a faran - for — foron - faren (to go)

Here belong such verbs as wadan (to walk), bacan (to bake), wascan (to wash).

There are verbs of this class that have other vowels, which are conditioned by the same factors as the variations in other classes:

if there was h sound in the middle of the word, it was dropped in the infinitive in the process of contraction and voiced in the other forms, and the basic forms are:



slean - sloз - sloзon - slxзen (to beat); flean –floз -floзon - fleзen (to flay)
