Spanish II Review of
Regular -ar, -er, -ir Verbs
Yo hablo español.
María no habla inglés.
¿Hablas español?
Nosotros no hablamos español en la clase de historía.
Los alumnos hablan español en la biblioteca.
***Remember that the stem, or root of the verb contains the
meaning of the word while the verb is conjugated according to its
subject (person performing the action), number, voice, mood and
tense. For example, the verbs hablar, hablan, hablaron, hablaba,
hablaría, and hable all carry the inherent meaning of “to speak,”
but each of the endings carries additional information about the
verb and how it acts with the subject.
This means your verb ending will change
according to the tense you are using and the
person who is completing the action. This is
called “conjugating” the verb.
So, let’s review…….
Subject Pronouns – who completes the actions?
yo – I
nosotros/as = we
tú = you (familiar)
él = he
ellos = they (boys/mixed, masc.)
ella = she
ellas = they (girls, fem.)
usted = you (formal)
ustedes = you all (formal & familiar)

Remember that if a verb is not conjugated it is in its infinitive form (with
the word “to” in front of it in English, like “to eat”). Infinitive verbs in
Spanish end in -AR, -ER, -IR, like comer (to eat) - Yo quiero comer un
taco - I want to eat a taco.
Each verb you will learn this year you will learn in the infinitive
form. It is up to you to know their proper endings when
conjugating to a subject (he, she, I , you, etc.), tense (past, present,
future, etc.) and mood (to be covered later).
So, without further ado, let’s learn some regular,
present tense verbs….this should be easy for you.
You will be responsible for the following verbs….know their
meaning and know how to conjugate them. Some are new to you,
others you should be familiar with….
