Conjugations-

Spanish is very different from other non-romance languages.

In Spanish, we have different verbs which are then conjugated for different adjective types

The infinitives are conjugated differently for different people depending on the amount/who you are talking to.

Trust me, it will make more sense as you go down (If I manage to explain it to you well enough)

Different Adjective Types: *ALL EXAMPLES ARE RESPECTIVE TO PREVIOUS ORDERS*

• (etc. escuchar, escribir (to listen, to write)) ---> escuchar = to listen, escribir = to write
  • First Person Singular: yo - me/I
  • Second Person Informal: tú - you
  • Third Person Singular: él/ella - he/she
  • First Person Plural: nosotros - we
  • Second Person Plural: vosotros - them (only used in Spain)
  • Third Person Plural: ellos/ellas - them (male/female)

Depending on whom you are speaking with, you will use these different adjective types.
Each different adjective type results in a different conjugation of a verb.
Depending on whether a verb ends in -ar, -er, or -ir, the verb has a different conjuugations.
I will use the words hablar (to talk) comer (to eat), and vivir (to live) as examples of the two different verb endings.

Different Conjugations: *ALL EXAMPLES ARE RESPECTIVE TO PREVIOUS ORDERS*

• (etc. escuchar, escribir (to listen, to write)) ---> escuchar = to listen, escribir = to write)
  • yo: o ---> hablo, como, vivo (I talk/eat/live)
  • tú: as, es, es ---> hablas, comes, vives (You talk/eat/live)
  • él/ella: a, e, e ---> habla, come, vive (He/She talks/eats/lives)
  • nosotros: amos, emos, imos ---> hablamos, comemos, vivimos (We talk/eat/live)
  • vosotros: áis, éis, ís ---> habláis, coméis, vivís (They (Spain) talk/eat/live)
  • ellos/ellas: an, en, en ---> hablan, comen, viven (They (masuline or feminine) talk/eat/live)

Past Tenses -

In Spanish the past tense can be either preterite or imperfect (different forms).
I won't delve too much into that because I probably won't have enough room.
Anyways, here are the conjugations for verbs in the preterite (past) tense
Once again I will use hablar (to talk) and comer (to eat) as examples of the two different verb endings.
In preterite form -er endings and -ir endings are the same, which is why there are only two examples

*Also, the verb "ir" is irregular and changes to separate word when converted to preterite. (HINT: starts with an "f")

Preterite Conjugations: *ALL EXAMPLES ARE RESPECTIVE TO PREVIOUS ORDERS*
