What is an irregular verb in
Spanish?
Those that do not follow the standard model of
conjugation in the verb. The regular verb
conjugation never modifies its root, always will
remain for conjugation in the all tenses.
Aquellos que no siguen el modelo estándar de la
conjugación en el verbo. La conjugación de verbos
regulares nunca modificará su raíz, esta siempre
quedará para conjugarse en todos los tiempos
verbales.
Why the 10 most
powerful common Spanish verbs are irregular?
Because directly as a of their commonness and high frequency of use. Any
verb that is common gets used a great deal, and therefore becomes
subject to twisting, contortion, slanging and bending. The more it is used,
the more it is changed and the more likely one of its forms or conjugations
gets morphed into something else.
Se debe directamente a su carácter de uso común o de alta frecuencia
en su uso. Cualquier verbo que es de uso común, llegará a utilizarse
mucho; por lo tanto, este quedará sujeto a diferentes flexiones,
modismos, modificaciones y deformaciones lingüísticas. Cuanto más se
utiliza estos verbos, más se cambian y es más probable que una de sus
formas o conjugaciones se transforme en otra cosa.
1. Ser – to be, when referring to what something is.
2. Estar – to be, when referring to how something is. Very important for
constructing phrases like “I am doing” (progressive tenses).
3. Ir – to go, an especially important verb because it is used to construct the forms
like “going to” as in “I am going to do something” This acts as an easy and useful
way to express a future tense.
4. Tener – to have (to hold). Also important for common phrases like I am cold, I
am hot, I am hungry, I am twenty. Spanish speakers “have cold” or “have heat”
rather than “are cold/hot, hungry, etc.
5. Haber – to have. This verb and its conjugations are used to form phrases like “I
have gone, I had gone, you would have gone, they will have gone…, etc. These are
called compound sentences. Because haber is used as “a tool” to build these other
tenses it is called an auxiliary verb.
6. Hacer – to do or to make. There are lots and lots of idiomatic expressions with
this verb and a few tricky conjugations.
7. Querer – to want. This is a great verb to master because you can tack any
other verb infinitive after it, and this will enable to make lots of phrases. Each new
infinitive verb that you learn, will form another word that you can use. Verbs that
function this way are called “modal verbs”, and another two follow in this list –
deber and poder.
8. Deber – to have to. Another useful and versatile (able to adapt or be adapted
to many different functions or activities) modal verb.
9. Poder – to be able to. Another powerful modal verb to add to your inventory.
10. Decir – to say.
How should I learn the Spanish verb tenses?
One at a time, slowly, from the most essential and commonly used
ones to the least so, in order.
Place great value on using popular media in the language you’re
trying to learn in order to learn that language – TV shows, movies,
cartoons, books, news articles, etc.
The sooner you can learn just enough Spanish (and it won’t take
much) to at least get started in understanding those sources and
talking to people in Spanish via language exchanges, the
better. Once you can start doing those things the rate at which you
will be learning Spanish will increase significantly.
1. Learn the verbs in patterns – Most of the verbs in each group follow
similar patterns. So each one that you learn then reinforces the learning of the next
verb. As the patterns recur, you will start identify and become familiar with them.
2. Learn the endings – Part of learning the verb patterns described above is
learning the verb endings. Spanish verbs all have unique endings for each pronoun
(I, you, he, she, we, they, etc)
3. Spanish Speakers drop the pronouns – This is because each of the verbs
related to theses pronouns has a unique ending for (I, you, we, you all) (personal
pronoun). It is implicit in the verb conjugation
4. Do a verb table day - These ten important Spanish verbs take longer than
regulars, because they have their unique quirks and twists.
5. Use ‘em or lose ‘em – The more you practice the better you will get.
1. SER
2. ESTAR
1. Their infinitives end with –er
3. IR
2. 7 of them have 5 letters in
4. TENER
5. HABER
6. HACER
7. QUERER
8. DEBER
9. PODER
10. DECIR
their structure
3. Frequent use
LEARN THE VERBS IN PATTERNS
Most of the verbs in each group follow
similar patterns.
Every time you learn an irregular verb
reinforces the learning of the next verb.
As the patterns recur, you will start
identify and become familiar with them.

The simple present tense is used in Spanish in all the cases it
is used in English.
Spanish also often uses it for actions in progress, when
English uses the present progressive:
¿Qué haces? (What are you doing?)
VERBOS CON CAMBIO DE RADICAL
• There is a fairly large group of verbs in Spanish that
undergo changes in their stem when conjugated in the
present tense.
• These changes occur only in the first and second persons
singular and third persons singular and plural.
There are three types or classes are called
“boot” verbs.
Because when a line is drawn around the forms that change, the
resulting shape vaguely resembles a boot or high-top shoe; thus, these
verbs are sometimes informally called “boot” or “shoe” verbs.

80% of the hard work. Master it and you’re
