Oir conjugation on Spanishd!ct

Question

Why are there no conjugations for the verb oír? It's a commonly used verb, and a very confusing one at that?

Answer 1

You asked: Why are there no conjugations for the verb oír?

I can see why you asked this question because if you don't put the accent over the letter "i", you won't get a conjugation of this verb!

So, just go to the conjugation topic under "more" near the top of each page in Spanish Dict and type in "oír"--with the accent over the letter "i".

If you don't know how to do a letter with an accent mark, to do the letter "i", all you need to do is hold down the Alt key and then type the number 161.

A list of ways in which you can type letters with accent marks and upside down question marks and exclamation points can also be found under "more". Look for the topic "Reference" and then look under the sub-topic "Technical Support".

Ah, I see, that's why. Silly me. - psyche_of_frogs, Jun 7, 2010

Pajaro: when I type alt 141, I get a backwards tilde: ì; alt 161 get the forward tilde: í - DR1960, Jun 7, 2010

Gracias, DR1960! I changed it to 161! - Pajaro44, Jun 8, 2010
