break a stick into two Pieces break Then we destroy something with them And when we Something to break for example if we have a stick and break it into two parts then we would use the verb "break " But one can also break the verb with rules or promises So someone has broken a rule or someone has broken a promise There are other meanings of "brechen " but these are two meanings that are very commonly used and therefore these are the ones that are most commonly understood e most useful for you If we now look at the verb "abbrechen " Then the meaning changes So then we would no longer break the stick into two parts For example we could break a branch off the tree Also when we tear something physical something physical yes somehow take it away en we break something off We can do that it can happen on purpose or It can also just happen by accident For example with your tooth I broke off a piece of my tooth Also I was doing some sports or riding my bike and unfortunately I broke off a piece of my tooth That's how you can break off Also use it as well when something physically goes away somewhere when it breaks away when it breaks off But of course we can also break off Never use it in a way that we end something or stop something For example you cancel your trip early Also you actually planned to take two weeks off that you want to travel through Spain for two weeks but for some reaso If you have to cancel the trip stop the trip and unfortunately end the trip Although you would have actually liked to continue the trip longer But you can also drop out of your studies end your studies but ending means also not that you then have your certificate that you then have your diploma tha You have finished your studies No canceling means you have left early Studied ended and did not receive the diploma not this certificate You dropped out of your studies in the third semester because you had a very good business idea and have found out maybe I should try to implement this business idea and see how it goes Where the journey leads Then you might have also dropped out of studies Also we can break something break a branch from the tree you somehow a tooth broken off or a piece of a tooth broken off you broke off the trip or something like that and you can also have a Quit a study program or something similar drop out of training Then I have the verb "to break " break Also I break something off There the prefix is separated making it separable and in the present tense you then have e prefix at the very end Also I'm dropping out of the study but with breaking it is It is not separable Also I break the glass or the glass is broken When we break something we also damage it and often then o many small parts Also a glass is perfect as an example The glass breaks or maybe also your coffee mug which is made of ceramic breaks easily if you just drop it on the floor It breaks Also if something breaks something is damaged The window the windowpane breaks when a stone is thrown into it When a stone is thrown against the The window pane breaks into many small pieces It's just the windowpane A bit less positive another example is breaking you can also break something emotionally or psychologically Also for example after her brother's death she is unfortunately somehow broken inside she is somehow like that inside A bit broken because a beloved person has died It's not such a great positive example but this is how one can also break down use it But we often use it with the example of glass like a windowpane and a coffee cup and so on Then something breaks Another one To break a promise is a crime A crime is also inseparable Therefore the Prefixes "zer-" and "ver-" are actually relatively easy to remember The two in all cases are inseparable So to commit a crime is then then so Not separable Like breaking Okay crime is not used that often as a verb at least in the situation of a crime So if you are Something if you have committed something if you have committed a crime then you have done something wrong That is how you can use it but we would No at least I can't think of a situation where I would commit something or will commit something We don't really say that You could still call it that Use a noun meaning the crime So when you turn the verb into a noun we would say he committed a crime Then this verb might still be quite helpful because you then know okay this comes from the verb to commit But in the We use the past tense "verbrochen" when someone has committed a crime But we also use "verbrochen" even in such cases A bit ironic For example in a situation where you ask the other person "What did we do to deserve being treated like this " Also what have we done what bad thing have we done that we are treated like this The footballer could for example the Referee have you already shown me the yellow card or are you the referee You're treating me here as if I've done something wrong I'm just a football player and a defender and that's exactly why it's all Normal I have to play a bit more aggressively as a defender Maybe in such a situation or you go somewhere to the office or you call somewhere call the customer service or go to the office or call the customer service and you will be treated somehow not really politely Then you would probably Don't say what I've done wrong because then you might end up creating a situation where you have a conflict with the other party That You should avoid it but you might ask yourself internally or after the call you might ask your partner Ask your buddy yeah what did I do wrong that I'm being sent there Customer service was so badly treated What did I do wrong So we can also say it colloquially a bit like that Ironically use it Then there is also vomiting Vomiting is when you When you don't feel well and have to vomit It's often just called throwing up and then I had to throw up Then I had to vomit then I had to throw up then yes the I wasn't feeling well and what was in my stomach came out of my mouth I don't know how to say that Otherwise it should also describe this medical term that when someone feels sick and then has to vomit then it will Vom Erbrechen wird ebenfalls gebraucht and perhaps something else that might also be important is that it is inseparable So I vom Erbrechen that is therefore an inseparable Verb and in the perfect tense I have thrown up or he has thrown up And finally Collapse The last verb with "break" is "collapse " So "collapse" sounds a bit like we both It means to collapse not to hand over together for example when a system collapses For example it is The entire communication system and the whole structure collapsed because there was a power outage or something happened and therefore The entire communication network has collapsed It no longer works It somehow collapsed in on itself But you can also physically collapse from exhaustion at work or during sports if you've been doing something for too long You have worked hard and maybe even worked at night for several weeks and then you might eventually break down Maybe also in sports when the elite athlete pushes beyond his limits he might eventually collapse Exhaustion But one can also use collapse emotionally again when one is emotionally overwhelmed when one is very sad for example after a Message After the message she broke down in tears So she was so sad so emotionally overwhelmed that she simply didn't know what to do anymore So and then he cried breaking down in tears That's it and we' ve reached the end of this
