If you can edit your heading, it should say "forms" NOT form's, which would imply "form is". ;) - athegr8, Oct 30, 2010

Do you mean forms as in...

Tú (You)... ¿Tú dónde estás?... "where are you?"

Tu (your)... "Tu tiempo es valioso"... "your time is precious"

Tus (your...in plural)... "tus chistes no son graciosos"... "your jokes aren't funny"

Tuyo (Yours)... "esto es tuyo"... "this is yours"

Ti (used with "por" or "para" ... "for you") "Un beso para ti"... "a kiss for you"

Te (when something is done at you) "Te quiero"... "I love you"

Contigo (With you)... "voy contigo"... "I'm going with you"

Tu without the accent means your and the possesive of tú which means you singular and informal You can use the conjugations charts to find the tu form conjugation all though stems changes the endings are the same.

Hello, here is some info for how the different forms are used.

tú : singular and informal (friend) --> ¿cómo estás Pablo?

Usted: singular and formal you (older person aka señor ó señora, your boss, etc) ¿cómo está usted Señora Rodriguez?

vosotros/vosotras: plural you (used only in Spain) --> ¿Cómo estáis Andrea y Paloma?

Ustedes: --> used as plural formal of you (you all) ¿Señoras y Cabelleros (gentlemen), cómo están esta noche?

Hope it helps

I'm not quite sure what you mean by the question. is the 2nd person familiar singular subject pronoun meaning "you". If you're asking how to conjugate verbs in the form, you'll have to check each verb. The dictionary here lists the conjugations. It tends to be regular for each different verb ending for the different tenses, but there are variations.
