Continuation of notes When to use it • The present tense forms of Spanish verbs express both the English present tense (I walk)Yohabloand the English present progressive (I am walking) Yoestoyhablando. • Spanish Present tense forms also include the auxiliary verb do/does that English uses in questions and negative sentences. Do/does are not expressed in Spanish before another verb
Continuation of notes • Indicates: A) an action or state of being at the present time. Examples: 1. Habloespañol • I speak Spanish, I am speaking Spanish, I do speak Spanish 2. Creoen Dios • I believe in God
Continuation of notes B) Habitual action Example: Voya la bibliotecatodos los días I goto the library every day I do go to the library every day. C). A general truth, something which is permanently true Examples : 1) Seismenos dos soncuatro. Six minus two are four 2) El ejerciciohace maestro al novicio. Practice makes perfect.
Continuation of notes D) Vividness when talking about past events. Example: El asesinose pone pálido. Tienemiedo. Sale de la casa y correa lo largo del río. The murderer turns pale. He is afraid. He goes out of the house and runsalong the river. e) A near future. Examples: 1. Mi hermanollegamañana. My brother arrives tomorrow. 2. ¿Escuchamosun disco ahora? Shall we listen to a record now?
Continuation of notes • Types of irregular verbs • -oyverbs - These verbs are irregular in the yo form (and possibly other forms). The yo form ends in “oy” • Examples: ser, ir, dar, estar(best to just memorize these verbs and their forms) • Stem changers (aka shoe verbs) – • These verbs have a change in the stem (what’s left after removing the –ar, -er, or –ir) • There are 4 types: • e-ie (tener, querer, comenzar, etc.) • e-I (decir, pedir,seguir etc.) • o-ue (dormir, poder, etc.) • u-ue (jugar) Steps to form them: 1: Chopsuey 2: Switch-a-roonie 3: schmoosh
Continuation of notes • “-go” verbs – These verbs are irregular in the yo form (and possibly other forms). The yoform ends in “go” • Examples: poner, salir, hacer, traer, venir, decir, oír, seguir • Another type of verbs • Reflexives • A verb is reflexive when the subject and the object are the same. In other words, when the subject does something to himself. • When a verb is reflexive, the infinitive ends in "se."
Continuation of notes • To learn to conjugate reflexive verbs, you need a different set of pronouns called "reflexive pronouns." These pronouns are positioned before the verb, while the ending "se" is dropped and the verb is conjugated normally. • The reflexive pronouns are not subject pronouns; rather they are object pronouns. • The purpose of the reflexive object pronouns is to show that the action of the verb remains with the subject.
Continuation of notes nos (ourselves)os (yourselves)se (themselves, yourselves) • me (myself)te (yourself)se (himself, herself, yourself) • To conjugate a reflexive verb: • Remove the “se” • Rearrange – move the “se” to the front of the verb • Make a change – change the “se” to match the subject • Chopsuey – remove the –ar,-er, or –ir • Switch-a-roonie – make a stem change if necessary • Schmoosh – add the correct ending to match the subject (yo) me Lav ar o se (tú) te ac ue o st ar as se
Continuation of notes • When two verbs are used together, the first verb is conjugated and the second verb is left in the infinitive form. (big brother-little brother verbs) • Example: • I want to eat. Quiero comer. • When the 2nd verb is reflexive, change the “se” to match the subject, but leave it at the end of the verb. • Example: • I need to go to bed Necesito acostarme
