¿What are you doing during the rainy season? Part 2
OBSERVING THE ENDINGS, ANALYZING THE BOXES, LEARNING THE VERBS, MEMORIZING THE WORDS…
I hope you are doing those things. Otherwise you are not taking advantage of these articles in your free time… But I am not here to judge you, I am here to help you 😉
Let’s observe the endings together:
-AR verbs
| O | A |
| AMOS | AN |
-ER verbs
| O | E |
| EMOS | EN |
-IR verbs
| O | E |
| IMOS | EN |
What do you observe?
I observe a pattern, don’t you?
Let’s analyze the boxes together:
-AR verbs
| O | A |
| AMOS | AN |
-ER verbs
| O | E |
| EMOS | EN |
-IR verbs
| O | E |
| IMOS | EN |
What do you analyze?
I analyze the boxes and realize that some boxes have the same endings. You see that?
Let’s learn the verbs together:
HablAR = TO speak / talk
ComER = TO eat
VivIR = TO live
SER = TO be #1
EstAR = TO be #2
TenER = TO have #1
HacER = TO make & TO do
IR = TO go
PodER = Can
LlamARse = TO call oneself (Reflexive)
GustAR = TO like (TO please)
HabER = TO have #2
How do you learn?
I learn the verbs using memory space repetition and flashcards. You?
