Verb

Audio: De-worden2.ogg , De-worden.ogg
Etymology: The prefix ge- was originally a marker of the perfective aspect. As such it was principally not added to verbs like werden that were by definition (mostly) perfective. (Remnants of this distinction are still found in dialects; compare Luxembourgish bruecht, fonnt, komm.) In modern German, all verbs with initial stress take the prefix ge-. The exception of worden has euphonic reasons, because as an auxiliary it is always combined with another past participle. This distinction between geworden (full verb) and worden (auxiliary) fully established itself only during the 19th century, however.
