I don't check the forums or go in-game anymore, I have quit.
@danny: since I also got to learn spanish I can help you out with this awesome website. The site is on german but you just have to put in the word you are looking for (for example: hablar), click "Konjugieren" and then you will get every form with it.

@cozza: well, that's pretty hard because I dont know how to start a lesson about learning a language since it's different from where you start. But for now there's one thing I could explain you.
The present tense: It's very important because you will face it very often in the daily life.
The endings are: -e, -st, -t, -en, -t, -en and you build it from the radical (lieb-)
for example:
lieben (to love):
Ich liebe
Du liebst
ER/Sie/Es liebt
______________
Wir lieben
Ihr liebt
Sie lieben
polite form: Sie lieben

But: there are plenty of exceptions, like all over the german language ;)
For example: "haben" and "sein"

"haben"
1. pers. sing.: ich habe
2. pers. sing.: du hast
3. pers. sing.: er/sie/es hat
__________________________
1. pers. pl.: wir haben
2. pers. pl.: ihr habt
3. pers. pl.: sie haben
polite form: Sie haben

"sein"
1. pers. sing.: ich bin
2. pers. sing.: du bist
3. pers. sing.: er/sie/es ist
_________________________
1. pers. pl.: wir sind
2. pers. pl.: ihr seid
3. pers. pl.: sie sind
polite form: Sie sind

Anyway, we'll come later to them.
For now I want you to tell me the different forms of "versuchen" in the present tense.
oh, I didnt knew that Latin! well, if your offer also counts for me I would be happy to ask you something:

when exactly do you use the Condicional and when the Pretérito imperfecto?

Am I meant to translate that? :P Because I don't know what that means.
