How To Conjugagte Vos ?
Please can someone tell me how to conjugate the more familiar form of tu, vos, for the following verbs. Comer, Hablar, Venir.
I would also be interested in which country your are conjugating this for, as I think if may change by country.
Thank you.

The country you're thinking of is Argentina. You can see an in depth analysis here that includes the verbs you're looking for. http://www.spanishdict.com/answers/134022/-what-is-vos#q134022
Listen to some songs by Los Autenticos Decadentes to hear it used.
No, it doesn't change depending of the country. But if you're interested, I'm from Argentina.
Vos comés
Vos hablás
Vos venís
The rest of the persons are the same (yo como, el/ella come, usted come, nosotros comemos, usteden comen)
The vos form is not only used in Argentina by the way. It is also used in Uruguay, and some regions of Bolivia and Guatemala. There might be more places in which it is used, but those are the ones I know.
Take off the R off of the verb, replace it with an S (for the tu form), and add an accent on the letter before the S
This thread is the best there is for "Vos" it is from "Benz" who hails from Argentinia.
It's definitely used in Guatemala, that where my teacher is from. Someone I Skype chat with says she uses it in Dom Rep, but she seemed to conjugate it very differently.
Does it only change in the preset tense and indicative ?
Thanks.
This may not get to the nub of it , but the other one is a gem!
