Verb Conjugation

¡Los verbos son muy importantes! They are the action words of every sentence we speak.

Just like in English, most Spanish verbs are spoken according to organized rules. Conjugating a verb is changing it to agree with the appropriate pronounsConjugating a verb is changing it to agree with the appropriate pronouns(I, you, he/she, we, they): “I walk, she walks, they walk,” etc., becomes “yo camino, ella camina, ellos caminan.”

Some verbs don’t follow an organized pattern closely, so they are considered irregular. Irregular verbs require a bit more practice and repetition—they will be covered more fully in another lesson.

This lesson focuses on regular present tense conjugations.

There are also other tenses, such as future tense and past tense; we’ll go over those in later lessons.

The first step to conjugating a verb correctly is to find the verb’s “stem.”

You can find the stem by dropping either the “–dropping either the “–arar,” “–,” “–erer” or “–” or “–irir” ending” ending from the infinitive of each verb. Here’s how:

This is the first step.
