Do I need to conjugate 2 verbs if they are next to each other in a sentence?
I'm trying to say, "he did not want to walk to the museum." Would it be.. "él no quiso caminar al museo" or "el no quise caminó al museo"

You don´t conjugate two verbs next to each other in the same clause. So it would be ¨él no quiso (not quise) caminar al museo.¨
This is to just start a debate.
Do we ever conjugate two consequtive verbs in an English phrase?
I wonder if anyone can think of one.
Oh yes shouldn't it be
Él no quería caminar al museo.
The -ar, -er, and -ir on the end of Spanish verbs indicates the infinitive (unconjugated) form of the verb and corresponse to the word "to" before the verb in the English infinitive. In English: to speak, to eat, to live correspond to hablar, comer, vivir in Spanish.
