1 Español 1: Capítulo 4 Gramática 2: -ER and –IR conjugations in the present tense, “tag” questions

2 Repaso: Conjugation There are three steps to conjugating regular verbs: Find the infinitive (the uncojugated form of a verb) Drop the –AR, -ER, or –IR This leaves us with the stem Add the endings We have different endings depending on whether we start with an –AR, -ER, or –IR infinitive. We also have different endings depending on the subject that is doing the action. Remember our subjects are: Yo, Tú, Él, Ella, Usted, Nosotros, Vosotros, Ellos, Ellas, Ustedes

3 Repaso: Regular –AR verbs
We have already learned the endings that we attach to regular –AR stems when we conjugate in the present tense: Yo Nosotros Tú Vosotros Él / ella / usted Ellos / ellas / ustedes -o -amos -as -áis -a -an

4 Endings for regular –ER and –IR verbs in the present tense

7 “Tag” questions A “tag” question is attached to the end of a sentence to make it a question If you expect someone to answer yes, use “¿no?” or “¿verdad?” Vienes a la fiesta, ¿verdad? / ¿no? (You’re coming to the party, right?) Sí, voy a ir. (Yes, I’m going to go) If you expect someone to answer no, use “¿verdad?” No vas al partido, ¿verdad? (You’re not going to the game, right?) No, no voy. (No, I’m not going.)
