Do you know Jaimito? He is a very famous kid here in Spain, probably the most renowned character of our jokes. Jaimito is a small and quite naughty boy who is always asking embarrassing questions, and doing mischief.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Being a boy, he has to go to school and try to learn how to conjugate verbs. Let\u2019s see how Spanish verbs work for him&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Conjugations:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The children are learning how to conjugate verbs, so the teacher asks Jaimito:<br \/>\n&#8211; Jaimito, tell me the present simple of swim.<br \/>\nJaimito answers almost shouting:<br \/>\n&#8211; I SWIM, YOU SWIM&#8230;<br \/>\nSo the teacher tells him:<br \/>\n&#8211; Jaimito, lower please!<br \/>\nAnd the boy continues:<br \/>\n&#8211; I dive, you dive, he dives&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Next day, just to check if he has reviewed them, the teacher asks him:<br \/>\n&#8211; Jaimito, can you please tell me the verb to walk in present tense?<br \/>\n&#8211; I waaaalk&#8230;.. yooouuuu waaaaallllkkk&#8230;&#8230; heeee waaaaaaaaallllkkssss&#8230;.<br \/>\nHis teacher, desperate by his sluggishness, tells him:<br \/>\n&#8211; \u00a1\u00a1Quicker Jaimito!!<br \/>\n&#8211; I run, you run, he runs&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&#8211; No, no, no! Let\u2019s try a different one: verb to eat in present simple Jaimito.<br \/>\n&#8211; I eat, You eat, He eats, She eats, It eats, We eat, You eat\u2026 \u00a1They pay!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Talking about the past and the future:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Jaimito is at school when the teacher asks him:<br \/>\n-Jaimito, tell me the future of the verb to yawn.<br \/>\n&#8211; I\u2019ll sleep.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Frustrated, she gives him one more chance:<br \/>\n&#8211; Ok, let\u2019s try this. If I say \u201cI was rich\u201d I\u2019m using past tense. If I say \u201cI\u2019m beautiful\u201d&#8230; what is it Jaimito?<br \/>\n-Excess of imagination, teacher!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a1Hola a todos! \u00bfConoc\u00e9is a Jaimito?
