1 Expresiones Lección 1 Presentaciones con el verbo “llamarse”

2 My name is… You have learned how to ask and tell a name with the verb “ser.” –Mi nombre es Juan. My name is Juan. –¿Cuál es tu nombre? What is your name? –¿ Cuál es su nombre? What is your name?

3 I call myself The more common way to ask and tell names in Spanish is with the verb llamarse. (Yo) Me llamo Juan. = I call myself Juan. ¿Cómo te llamas (tú)? = How do you call yourself? ¿Cómo se llama (Ud.)? = How do you call yourself?

4 Mi nombre es… vs. Me llamo… These are both ways to express: My name is …. They are not interchangeable. Mi nombre es Juan. (literal) Me llamo Juan. ( not literal)

5 A bit about regular verbs You have already learned to conjugate two verbs that mean “to be.” Both “ser” and “estar” are types of irregular verbs. In Spanish, there are many verbs that are considered regular verbs because they follow rules of conjugation. The verb “llamar” means “to call,” and it is a regular verb in the present tense.

6 Present tense of regular –ar verbs Infinitive forms of Spanish verbs end in either –ar, -er, or –ir. They translate as “ to + verb.” (llamar = to call) The infinitive ending needs to be dropped in order to conjugate the verb to make it agree with the subject. The new ending of the verb tells you the tense and the subject (who is performing the action).

7 The stem of the verb tells you the meaning. –For example, the llam in the verb llamar indicates the meaning “ call.” The ending –ar indicates the infinitive “to call.” When we drop –ar, and add: - o, -as - a, -amos, - áis, -an to the stem llam we can tell the subject of the verb and that the verb is present tense.

8 Llamar = to call Yo llamo Nosotros llamamos Tú llamasVosotros llamáis Ud. llama Uds. llaman Él llama Ellos llaman Ella llama Ellas llaman

9 Translation of the present tense in Spanish is just like English. Yo llamo = I call; I am calling; I do call Tú llamas = You call; You are calling; You do call Ud. llama = You call; You are calling; You do call Él llama = He calls, He is calling, He does call Ella llama = She calls, She is calling; She does call Nosotros llamamos= We call; We are calling; We do call Vosotros llamáis = You call; You are calling; You do call Uds. llaman = You call; You are calling; You do call Ellos llaman = They call; They are calling; They do call Ellas llaman = They call; They are calling; They do call

10 The reflexive verb llamarse When a verb infinitive has “se” attached to the end, it is called a reflexive verb. The verb “llamar” means “to call.” The reflexive verb “llamarse” means “to call oneself.”

11 Conjugating a reflexive verb When we conjugate a reflexive verb, we must include the reflexive pronouns before the verb that match up with the subject. Instead of “oneself” they match up to reflect the subject to indicate: myself, yourself, himself, herself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves. Yo me Nosotros nos Tú teVosotros os Ud. seUds. se Él seEllos se Ella seEllas se

12 Llamarse = to call oneself Yo me llamo Nosotros nos llamamos Tú te llamasVosotros os llamáis Ud. se llama Uds.se llaman Él se llama Ellos se llaman Ella se llama Ellas se llaman

13 Literal vs. Not literal (Yo) Me llamo Juan. = I call myself Juan. (literal translation) My name is Juan. (not literal) ¿Cómo te llamas (tú)? = How do you call yourself? (literal) What is your name? (not literal)
