The Verb IR
and
Ir + a + infinitive
REGULAR VERBS
Verbs whose INFINITIVES end in –
ar, -er, and –ir usually follow a
pattern.
The endings show who is doing the
action: (yo) hablo, (tú) hablas, and
so on.
Verbs that follow certain patterns
are called REGULAR verbs.
IRREGULAR VERBS
Verbs that do not follow certain
patterns are called IRREGULAR
verbs.
The verb “ir” is IRREGULAR. It
means “to go” in English. It is
often followed by the word a: Voy
a la escuela. Vas al gimnasio.
Vamos a hablar.
You must put to memory
the forms of “ir” because
it is an irregular verb and
it follows no pattern.

original, unconjugated form of a
verb. It will end in a “r”.
