Nominalization converts verbs/adjectives into nouns, making German more compact and formal. Very common in academic and professional writing.
| Source | Nominalization | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Verb → Infinitiv | das + Infinitiv | das Lernen, das Schwimmen |
| Verb → Suffix | -ung (fem.) | die Entscheidung, die Änderung |
| Adjektiv → Nomen | der/die/das + adj. | der Kranke, das Gute |
-ung is the most productive suffix: entscheiden→Entscheidung, ändern→Änderung, lösen→Lösung. All -ung nouns are feminine.
Nominalized adjectives take adjective declension: ein Kranker (Type 2), der Kranke (Type 1), etwas Neues (neuter, Type 3).
