Los verbos Verbs in Spanish all end in either –ar, –er, or –ir

Bailar- to dance Caminar- to walk Vivir- to live

Today, we’re only going to talk about verbs that end in –ar

El infinitivo The infinitive: The basic, unconjugated form, the one that corresponds to the English “to do” (something). For example, to speak, to work, to sing, etc.

The Spanish infinitive always ends in r

Los verbos The stem of a verb is what comes before the –ar

Hablar (to talk) Bailar (to dance) Nadar (to swim) Caminar (to walk)

Vamos a conjugar To conjugate a verb, all you have to do is remove the stem and add an ending based on the subject (who is doing the action of the verb)

You are just changing it to match the person that is doing the action.

Let me show you …

Yo Stem + o

Tú Stem + as

Él, ella, usted Stem + a

Nosotros/nosotras Stem + amos

Ellos, ellas, ustedes Stem + an
