Lesson 7 : Spanish verbs (2)
Present Tense (indicative)
Regular verbs


-
Spanish verbs are divided into three conjugations depending on the infinitive ending:
- ar (hablar - to speak)
- er (comer - to eat)
- ir (vivir, - to live)


- Depending on person of verb the end changes.

- The present tense is created by dropping the infinitive ending (-ar, -er, -ir) and adding different endings depending on the person.
