Chapter 5 Grammar I Stem-Changing Verbs

Present Tense (Repaso) Present tense is used to describe actions that occur in the Present I run I am running I do run Do I run? Every verb in Spanish has a stem followed by an ending. The stem is everything before the ending and tells the verb’s meaning. The ending in Spanish can tell you who is the subject. The infinitive ending doesn’t name a subject. Cantar  to sing Canto I sing Cantamos  we sing

Present Tense (Repaso) To conjugate a verb means to change the verbs from the infinitive form to match the subject. To conjugate a verb in Spanish in Present Tense: Drop the ending from the infinitive (the –ar, -er, or –ir) Add the ending that matches the particular subject The following slide will show all the present tense endings…

Present Tense (Repaso) -AR verbs -ER verbs -IR verbs yo tú usted él ella Nosotros (as) Vosotros(as) ustedes Ellos(as)

Present Tense (Repaso) -AR verbs -ER verbs -IR verbs yo -o tú -as -es usted -a -e él ella Nosotros (as) -amos -emos -imos Vosotros(as) -áis -éis -ís ustedes -an -en Ellos(as)

Present tense (Repaso) Since the ending of the verb can tell the subject, the subjects for yo, tú, nosotros, & vosotros can be omitted because their verb endings ONLY match their subjects. These subjects or their subject pronouns can be added to emphasize or clarify who is being talked about. Ana y yo cantamos. (Ana & I sing) Cantamos. (We sing) -AR verbs -ER verbs -IR verbs yo -o tú -as -es Nosotros (as) -amos -emos -imos Vosotros(as) -áis -éis -ís

Present tense (Repaso) The subjects usted, él, and ella share the same ending and the subjects ustedes and ellos share the same endings. As a result, the subject MUST be used to clarify! Cantan (They sing or you sing) Ellos cantan. (They sing) Ana y usted cantan. (Ana and you sing) -AR verbs -ER verbs -IR verbs usted -a -e él ella ustedes -an -en ellos

Present Tense (Repaso) Trabajar- to work English Spanish I work We work You work You (ud.) work You (uds.) work He works They work She works

Present Tense Trabajar- to work English Spanish I work Trabajo We works Trabajamos You work Trabajas You works Trabajáis You (ud.) work Usted trabaja You (uds.) work Ustedes trabajan He works Él trabaja They work Ellos trabajan She works Ella trabaja

Stem-Changing Verbs Some verbs have vowel variations in their stems (the part of the verb before the –ar, -er, or –ir) and are called stem-changing verbs. You have already learned jugar where the u changes to ue, and the verbs querer, tener, and venir where the e changes to ie. Stem-changing verbs still use the regular –ar, -er, and –ir endings. The verbs froms for nosotros and vosotros do NOT stem-change.
