form that ends in –ar, -er, or –ir).

I like going to the mall.

1.I like drawing.
2.I like listening to music.
3.I like swimming in the pool.
4.I don’t like taking out the trash.
5.I don’t like taking care of my brother.
Gramática
Present tense of regular -ar verbs
1.In Spanish and English verbs change depending on the subject (the
person doing the action). This is called conjugating the verb.
2.In Spanish there are three main groups of verbs; their infinitive (the
unchanged form of a verb) ends in –ar, -er, or –ir.
3.To conjugate hablar or any other regular –ar verb, take the part of
the verb called the stem (habl-) and add these endings:
(yo)
(tú)
hablo
hablas
(nosotros/as)
(vosotros/as)
hablamos
habláis
(usted)
(él)
(ella)
habla
habla

(ustedes)
(ellos)
(ellas)
hablan

Note: tú is informal, usted is formal

Subject pronouns
Gramática
Spanish speakers don’t use subject pronouns as often as English
speakers do. That’s because the verb ending usually indicates the
subject of the verb.
yo
compro
nosotros, nosotras compramos
tú
compras
vosotros, vosotras
compráis
usted compra
ustedes, ellos, ellas compran
él, ella
1. In general, tú is used to speak to people with whom you are on a firstname basis. Use usted with adults and people in authority.
2. In Spain, vosotros is the plural of tú, while ustedes is the plural of
usted. In the Americas, ustedes is the plural of both tú and usted.
3. The masculine forms (nosotros and vosotros) are used to refer to
groups of males and groups including both males and females. The
feminine forms nosotras and vosotras refer to groups including only
females.
Nota gramatical
Ir (to go) is an irregular verb, since its conjugation
doesn’t follow any pattern. To ask where someone is
going, use the question word ¿adónde? ([to] where?).
Voy al cine.
¿Adónde vas ahora?
Va al gimnasio.
Vamos a la piscina.
Vais a casa.
Van al baile.

Spanish calendars look slightly different than calendars in
English; el lunes (Monday), not el domingo (Sunday), is the
first day of the week. This makes more sense of the term
“weekend,” as Saturday and Sunday are together at the end
of the week.

when stating what day it is. Hoy es martes.
2. To make sábado and domingo plural, add –s.

lunes, el martes. Voy al gimnasio el jueves.
