Hi Welcome to the forum. I have tried doing your homework and it only seems to work if I use a couple of the verbs more than once. Your instructions do not seem to prevent this and in any event you have more verbs than spaces. It is a way of showing you can understand a dialogue about you daily routine and understand the present tense. If you go to the front of the site you can type in individual words. For example almorzar and it will translate give you sentences and scroll to the bottom the verb endings in red where it is irregular. Almorzar is definitely used as are jugar and dormir and they are all root changing. Remember in Spain they lunch between 2 and 4 later than many other countries. Despues de is followed by the infinitive
Look carefully at which person the verb refers to eg when at the end you are talking about 'mis amigos + yo' it equals we/ nosotros.
Make an effort. Edit your question with your answers and we will help. I know if I filled the exercise you would think great I can spend my time doing something else, but as someone who has occasionally cheated by copying answers I know later you lose out by not learning or understanding something.
Soon you will be learning some verb conjugations where you will need to remember the first person present of verbs. Nothing is wasted
This is an exercise which requires you (1) know what every word means, especially the verbs. (2) It also requires you use the correct form of the verb.
Our regulations state that the questioner when doing a homework exercise post that he/she enters in what is deemed to be correct. Then someone from SD will correct your exercise for you,
Hi Gay, welcome to the forum ![]()
I am sure you can do this, just have a go ![]()
We will correct your mistakes...if there are any.
have a look at the simple present tense of the verbs, remember that you have to conjugate the verbs according to the subject.
