Be careful! Yo and él, ella, Ud forms have ACCENTS!!!

Interesting note… The “yo” form in the present tense takes an “o” as its’ ending without an accent mark and the él, ella Ud form ending for the preterite tense is “ó” (o with an accent). Therefore, be careful, because the accent mark changes the meaning of the sentence.
