lead
The German word 'führen' is used to describe the act of leading or guiding someone or something. It can be used in various contexts such as leading a team, guiding a tour, or leading a project. In a broader sense, it can also mean to conduct or to carry out. For example, 'Er führt das Projekt durch' translates to 'He is leading the project'.
They lead the group through the city.
In this sentence, 'führen' is used in the sense of physically leading or guiding a group. It is similar to the English phrase 'to lead' in this context.
The studies lead to new insights.
Here, 'führen' is being used in an abstract sense. It's not physical leading. Instead, it's saying that the studies are leading or resulting in new insights. We often use lead in this abstract sense in English as well.
He will lead the project.
