ER Verbs and IR Verbs (past tense) can be lumped together :
verb stem + í = I
verb stem + yó or ió = he
verb stem + yeron or ieron = they
verb stem + ímos = we
We are breaking some rules and not telling you every single irregularity
in these verbs. We do this so that you will be able to communicate in the
shortest time possible. You may ask `How do I know which ending to use yó
or ió?'. It will not matter much because your pronounciation will probably
make them both sound the same.
The word un means a. For example un libro=a book and una pluma=a pen.
Use the PHRASE/VERB section of this tutorial for memorization. We are just
introducing verb forms here so that you have some idea of what is going on.
Next we will do the future tense. It differs from the past and present
because we don't cut off the endings here. We use the whole infinitive.
AR Verbs and ER Verbs and IR Verbs in (future tense) are conjugated the same.
verb + é = I will | ie. desearé = I will want
verb + á = she will | ie. deseará = she will want
verb + án = they will | ie. desearán = they will want
verb + emos = we will | ie. desearemos= we will want
