Tener – to have  The forms are similar to an –ar verb…but since tener ends with –er…the endings have –e in them. ***And don’t forget that this verb has some other spelling changes.

tener  Yo tengo  Tú tienes  Usted tiene  Él tiene  Ella tiene  Nosotros tenemos  Vosotros tenéis  Ustedes tienen  Ellos tienen  Ellas tienen Don’t forget to add in the “g”. All forms need an “i” except yo, nosotros and vosotros.

Tener + “que” + infinitive Don’t’ conjugate the second verb!!!  To have + “to” + activity  In this phrase “que” means “to” Don’t’ conjugate the second verb!!!

Tener + “que” + infinitive Don’t’ conjugate the second verb!!!  Yo tengo que estudiar para el examen.  Marco tiene que trabajar temprano. Don’t conjugate the second verb!!! Which word means “to”???
