Meaning
For above all the economy is becoming impatient.
Word for word: for before all the economy becomes impatient
The sentence says that it is especially business and industry that are losing patience, typically said when discussing political processes that are moving too slowly for companies.
A main clause with the coordinating conjunction 'denn' in position zero, so the finite verb 'wird' stays in second position. The subject 'die Wirtschaft' is feminine nominative singular; 'wird' is the finite present of 'werden' used as a linking verb with the predicative adjective 'ungeduldig', which takes no ending because it is predicative. 'vor allem' is a fixed dative phrase functioning as an adverbial of focus.
Rules at work(4)
-
Denn
'Denn' introduces a reason clause without affecting the position of the finite verb.
Und, aber, oder, denn and sondern join two main clauses and do not count as an element, so the word order after them is unchanged and the verb stays in second position.
Does this rule belong on this sentence? -
die Wirtschaft wird ungeduldig
Despite the initial conjunction, the finite verb 'wird' stands in second position of the clause.
In a German main clause the finite verb is always the second element. The first element can be the subject, but it can just as easily be a time expression, an object or a whole subordinate clause; whatever it is, it counts as one element and the verb follows it. This is why putting something other than the subject first pushes the subject after the verb.
Does this rule belong on this sentence? -
die Wirtschaft
The subject of 'werden' appears in the nominative.
The nominative marks the subject of the clause: whoever or whatever is doing the verb. It is also the case used after the verbs sein, werden and bleiben, so both sides of Das ist mein Bruder stand in the nominative.
Does this rule belong on this sentence? -
wird
Present of 'werden' expresses an ongoing change of state, 'is becoming'.
The present describes what is happening now, what happens habitually, and very often what is going to happen, since German uses the present with a time expression where English would use a future.
