Vos Conjugation? ¿Conjugación de vos?

Question

Hi. I was just wondering if anyone here knows the conjugation of the verb form "vos." I understand that it is pretty commonly used, and I have heard/read conflicting information about it. If anyone is a fluent or native Spanish speaker (best if you're from a country where they use "vos"), it would be great if you could help me clear up on this.

Hola. Sólo me preguntaba si alguien aquí sepa la conjugación de la forma verbal "vos." Tengo entendido de que es bastante común, y la he oíd/leído información contradictoria. Si alguien es hablante fluente o nativo de español (mejor si Ud. es de país que usa el voseo), sería buenísimo si me lo pueda aclarar un poco.

Thank you. Gracias.

This had me worried. You misspelled vos in the english translation above and I thought there was some new 7th form I was missing. :) - JoshuaBelden, Apr 23, 2012

Answer 1

He Pumpkin,

It's quite simple. You should get the idea in no time:

- ar verbs = ás For example: Hablar = hablás / escuchar = escuchás

- er verbs = és For example: Comer = comés / vender = vendés

- ir verbs = ís For example: Vivir = vivís / pedir = pedís

And then there is also the imperative form of the voseo. You just simply drop the "r" and add an accent to the last vowel:

Tener = Tené * Venir = Vení * Tomar = Tomá

Easy enough, right? Once you learn it it's so fun to use! Hope I helped

Voseo is not incorrect. It is a different way to conjugate. - 00d312f5, Apr 23, 2012
