The verb endings, in bold type below, are always the same, no matter which verb, no matter which tense. The verbs Ir & Ser are very special verbs, and they are always treated differently. Also, the tense has to be learned separately , because it does not follow patterns like the other tenses. COMER: to eat

Yo (I) como comía comeré comería Tú (You) comes comías comerás comerías S Ël, ella, Vd. (He, She, You) coma comía comerá comería a/e Nosotros (We) comemos comíamos comeremos comeríamos MOS

Vosotros (You all) coméis comíais comeréis comeríais IS Ellos, ellas, Vds. (They, You) comen comían comerán comerían N

NOTE: “Yo” ending (unpredictable) Any other verb ending (other than s, a/e, mos, is, n, or R ) would be the Yo ending. (EXCEPT: In the Preterite tense, and with the verbs, Ir & Ser ) Boot Camp Spanish- Verbs Verb Conjugation in The Present Tense LESSON 2 Matching Verb Endings & Subjects

IS= Vosotros (You all)

R= The VerbName (To)
