First, let\u00b4s conjugate some Spanish verbs in the Present Tense. I will say a verb in Spanish and a person (nosotros, vosotros, ustedes, or ellos) and I would like you to conjugate the verb in the correct way for the Present Tense. For example: Comprar \u2013 Ellos: Compran:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Hablar (ustedes)<br \/>\n&#8211; Escuchar (ellos)<br \/>\n&#8211; Vivir (ellos)<br \/>\n&#8211; Comprender (ustedes)<br \/>\n&#8211; Beber (nosotros)<br \/>\n&#8211; Escribir (nosotros)<br \/>\n&#8211; Trabajar (vosotros)<br \/>\n&#8211; Comprar (ellos)<br \/>\n&#8211; Leer (ustedes)<br \/>\n&#8211; Comer (vosotros)<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Next, I will say some Spanish verbs which have already been conjugated in the Spanish Present Tense and I would like you to tell me what they mean in English. For example: \u201cHablamos\u201d means \u201cWe speak\u201d. Keep in mind that some of them could mean more than one thing:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Escuch\u00e1is<br \/>\n&#8211; Escribimos<br \/>\n&#8211; Beben<br \/>\n&#8211; Comemos<br \/>\n&#8211; Compran<br \/>\n&#8211; Leen<br \/>\n&#8211; Hablan<br \/>\n&#8211; Trabajamos<br \/>\n&#8211; Vivimos<br \/>\n&#8211; Comprend\u00e9is<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Now, let\u00b4s do the same thing, reviewing also the endings for yo, t\u00fa, usted, \u00e9l, and ella:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Escribo<br \/>\n&#8211; Comen<br \/>\n&#8211; Habla<br \/>\n&#8211; Compr\u00e1is<br \/>\n&#8211; Viven<br \/>\n&#8211; Leo<br \/>\n&#8211; Trabajas<br \/>\n&#8211; Escuchamos<br \/>\n&#8211; Comprende<br \/>\n&#8211; Bebe<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Let\u00b4s see now if you understand these Spanish sentences:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>-\u00bfComprend\u00e9is?<br \/>\n&#8211; No, no comprendemos nada.<br \/>\n&#8211; \u00bfComen ustedes pollo?<br \/>\n&#8211; S\u00ed, comemos pollo<br \/>\n&#8211; Mar\u00eda y Antonio trabajan en Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Now, please try to make the following sentences in Spanish:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Do you live in Madrid? (group\/friendly)<br \/>\n&#8211; Yes, we live in Madrid<br \/>\n&#8211; Do you speak Spanish? (group\/formal)<br \/>\n&#8211; No, we don\u00b4t speak Spanish<br \/>\n&#8211; Pedro and Sonia buy fruit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Finally, see if you understand these sentences which contain all the endings for all the persons: yo, t\u00fa, usted, \u00e9l, ella, nosotros, vosotros, ustedes, ellos:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; \u00bfBebes alcohol?<br \/>\n&#8211; No, no bebo alcohol \u00bfy vosotros?<br \/>\n&#8211; S\u00ed, bebemos cerveza.<br \/>\n&#8211; Mis hermanos no comen carne.<br \/>\n&#8211; Mi amigo escucha m\u00fasica pop.<\/p>\n<p>This is all for today. <\/p>\n<p>As I recommended in the last practice lesson, try to memorize these endings well. They are very important. We will soon be seeing many more Spanish verb endings and the quicker you start familiarizing yourself with each set of endings the better.<\/p>\n<p>See you next time with more interactive Spanish practice.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Hasta luego!<\/p>\n<p>I hope you are enjoying my weekly Spanish lessons.
