There are also a plentiful amount of irregular cases where exceptions will be made.

7 Stem Changers Certain verbs vary the standard conjugation in the –yo, -tú, - él/ella/usted, and –ellos/ellas/ustedes forms. These verbs are usually designated by a specific letter after the verb in paranthesis. Stem changers are arranged by which letter in the verb is changed. They include: e  ie e  i o  ue u  ue

8 Stem Changers: e  ie The e is targeted in specific vowels to change. If there are more than one e, it is always the last e in the verb (excluding if the verb ends in –er) An example using perder: Other examples include tener, venir, cerrar, comenzar, divertirse, merendar, nevar, mentir, pensar, preferir, querer, recomendar, sentarse, sentirse, and empezar.
