My Presentation• Regular Spanish verbs are conjugated depending on their

endings, (AR,ER, and IR) and their pronouns. If I want to talk about myself, the verb changes compared to if I were talking about another.

• In this presentation I will go over the three different types of regular verbs- IR, ER, and AR verbs. I will also go over their pronouns.

}

}

Explanation• For –AR VERBS, if you are talking about yourself, yo, the end

of the verb will be an –o. For example, if you had the verb hablar, to talk, and you wanted to say I talk with my friends in Spanish, you would say:

Yo hablo con mis amigos.

• Yo is the pronoun, I, then you take the –AR ending off of hablar and add the –o to habl-. This gives you hablo. Then you add the rest of your sentence, in this case con mis amigos, or with my friends.

Examples of –AR Verbs• Hablar/To talk

• Bailar/To dance

• Comprar/To buy

• Caminar/To walk

• Tocar/To play an instrument

• Jugar/To play a game

• Tomar/To take or drink

• Cocinar/To cook

• Practicar/To practice

• Aceptar/To accept

Explanation• For –ER VERBS, if you are with a group of people, you will call

yourselves we. The end of the verb will have –emos. So if you had the verb comer, to eat, and you want to say We eat food in Spanish, you would say this:

Nosotros comemos comida.

• Nosotros is the pronoun, we, so you would take the –ER ending off of comer and add the –emos to com-. This gives you comemos. Then you can add the rest of your sentence, comida, or food.

Examples of –ER Verbs• Comer/To eat

• Aprender/To learn

• Beber/To drink

• Comprender/To understand

• Conocer/To know

• Correr/To run

• Creer/To believe

• Deber/To owe

• Hacer/To make or do

• Leer/To read

• Poner/To put

• Querer/To want

• Ser/To be

• Ver/To see

• Tener/To have

• Vender/To sell

Explanation• For –IR VERBS if you are talking about a group of people, you will say

them. The end of the verb will have –en. So if you had the verb decidir, to decide, and you wanted to say, They decide, you would say:

Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes deciden.

• Ellos/ Ellas/ Ustedes is the pronoun. You will use ellos for a group of boys, ellas for a group of girls, and ustedes for a group of boys or girls who need respect. If you had a group of boys and girls you will use ellos. This is the same for el/ella/usted. Because of the pronoun, you would take the –IR ending off of decidir and add on –en to decid-. For –IR verbs, it always helps me remember them if I remember –IR verbs and –ER verbs are almost the same. The only difference is that in –ER, nosotros’ ending is –emos, and in –IR it is –imos.

Examples of –IR Verbs• Abrir/ To open

• Admitir/ To admit

• Asistir/ To assist

• Cubrir/To cover

• Decidir/ To decide

• Describir/To describe

• Descubrir/ To discover

• Discutir/To discuss

• Escribir/To write

• Permitir/ To permit

• Recibir/ To receive

• Vivir/ To live

• Subir/ To climb up

• Sufrir/ To suffer

• Existir/ To exist

• Unir/ To unite

Two verbs in a row?What if there are…

What if there are two verbs in a row?

• For example, I want to eat. Or, I like to sing.

• If you want to write two verbs in a row, I want to eat, will be:

Yo deseo comer.

• Yo is the pronoun, I, and desear is made into deseo. But because we already conjugated desear, comer stays infinitive, or just keeps the –ER, -IR, or –AR verb ending. This will be the same with every situation like this.
