In addition to what Andrea correctly said: If the "drop" you mean is a verb, you also need to know whether it's transitive (as in "I dropped the cake") or intransitive (as in "the cake dropped on the floor"). Those are different verbs in German. Intransitive "to drop" is "fallen", but transitive "drop" is "fallen lassen". (Other translations are also possible).
Edit: "I dropped X" would be "Ich habe X fallen gelassen" or "Ich lie脽 X fallen". Or if you want to stress that it happened without your intention, you could also say "Mir ist X runtergefallen" / "Mir fiel X runter".What is the German translation of the English word "drop"?
It's ' der Tropfen' if it is the noun, as in rain drop. But the verb is 'fallen' or 'senken'. You really need to give a sentence so we can see it in context, because if it is the verb, the word would change depending on the gender of the noun, tense etc.What is the German translation of the English word "drop"?
