Answer 1

You want us to do your homework!!!!!!!!????????????

Edit:

I really would like to know how many new users are generated each day in this site.

I don't think it is a coincidence all these little people are trying to get their homework done and making us think they don't know any better.

It will continue to happen that way because of people like Daniela and her granny's heart that they get their answers and can score nicely at school.

If these numbers of "users" is what the people at this site are thrilled at, then I don't know who is fooling who.

Other than that I really don't have a problem. Just tell me to stop answering to that type of questions one way or another and I'll do it.

Well yes they do , and stay incognito for obvious reasons también. - ray76, Nov 22, 2015

You guys are all mean. She's a first timer, so I dealt with her as such. You never know when a young beginner might become a valued member. You wouldn't have liked me either when I was that age either. - Daniela2041, Nov 22, 2015

OK so I used "either" twice. No le hace. - Daniela2041, Nov 22, 2015

Is not a matter of liking or nor liking a child or being mean. It's about teaching them proper ways to ask. It isn't a sin not to know. Having said that. Please read my Edit. - chileno, Nov 24, 2015

Answer 2

I am sure that your teacher has taught you a lesson from your textbook on this subject. Did you pay attention? No? OK The verbs you have given are called "ar" verbs-- and for a reason. The infinitive ends in "ar" The first thing you do when conjugating a verb is to remove the "ar" infinitive ending and replace with "personal endings." The personal endings follow.

You could find these endings in your book but I will put them here.

Yo------------------o

tú-------------------as

él/ella/Usted/--a

Nostros----------amos

Vosotros--------áis

ellos/ellas/Uds--an

Now that I have answered your question, (at least in part--you still have to fill in the blanks.) could you please do me a favor and fill out your profile?. It is really necessary so that the members can understand what your levels of Spanish and English are and how to approach your question. As a Spanish teacher, I know exactly where you're coming from, but it's not so obvious to those who aren't dealing with close to around 100 students every day who ask similar questions all the time.

I'm re-opening this post. Sadly, I didn't read it through and I should have. Please forgive. - rac1, Nov 23, 2015

You are definitely forgiven. ♥ - Daniela2041, Nov 23, 2015

Daniela, I am looking for charts like the one you posted above. Would you be able to point me to more conjugation charts? - heathj85, Jul 15, 2016

Answer 3

As Gringo said, it´s not called "the neutral form of the verb" but simply infinitive.

As far as these "3 steps" are concerned, until you acquire a feeling for conjugations all you have to do is search for the infinitive of any verb on a conjugator for person, tense, and case, and use the result. And at your stage, it looks like you only need to be concerned with present simple tense, so go now and do your homework.

Your teacher´s discription for me seems very convoluted. I would first find a different teacher and then drink the beer.

This is a very common way to teach conjugation, at least here in the USA. I was taught this way 30 years ago and I taught it this way to my students because this is how they also present it in textbooks. I agree that it is not a "natural" way to learn! - ashepard, Nov 23, 2015

Also, public school teachers in the U.S. are often required to teach from adopted textbooks and given little leeway to employ their own methods. I was lucky to have a principal who said, "You know what you're doing. Close your door and teach." - AnnRon, Nov 23, 2015

I use my textbooks as reference and backup. I teach my own style as many have observed here. I use a totally audio-lingual method to teach verbs. The students get them quite quickly. - Daniela2041, Nov 23, 2015

Dani, good for you! The main thing to remember is that different students have different ways of learning, so a good teacher is always flexible - 005faa61, Nov 23, 2015

Answer 4

Drink a beer. Drink another beer. Use the infinitive.

Sorry just joking around.

This is homework so try it yourself first.

Not the beer drinking unless you are of age.
