schiffen
to ship or navigate
- Past (Präteritum)
- schiffte
- Past participle
- geschifft (haben)
Regular weak verb taking haben. It is used in nautical contexts to describe the operation of a vessel or the transport of goods by ship. While colloquially sometimes used to mean urinating, it primarily remains a term related to maritime travel and logistics. Do not confuse this with the strong verb schiffen which denotes the act of a vessel moving through water as an intransitive verb of motion, which would then take sein as an auxiliary verb for that specific directional movement sense.
