Nasıl kullanılır

The weak verb setzen ('to seat / set / place / sit down') is transitive and expresses movement/direction, requiring the accusative case (answers 'where to?' / wohin?, e.g., Ich setze das Kind auf den Stuhl — I seat the child on the chair). Conjugation: setzt, setzte, hat gesetzt. It is contrasted with the static intransitive verb sitzen ('to sit / be seated', requires dative, e.g., Das Kind sitzt auf dem Stuhl). The reflexive sich setzen is the extremely common way to say 'to sit down / take a seat' (Setzen Sie sich! — Please sit down!). Note: the source translation is 'садить', which is a colloquial Russian word for 'сажать'.
