Community TutorHey! Can someone tell me why "vor" is being used at the end of the following sentence? Does it come from "vorlesen", meaning that they read out loud?
Ein Schriftsteller liest etwas aus seinem Buch vor.

I'm not an expert, but hopefully this will help. I think you are correct, the verb is VORLESEN. When verbs with a prefix ike VORlesen are conjugated the prefix (VOR) goes to the end of the sentence.
