My teachers always wrote it in a table, but that's hard to do in a post.
So, are you following this?

So, are you following this?

Yes yes. It's actually making sense to me. I find it funny how my spanish teacher never got any of this stuff through my head. +shot+ : D

[Ten]

"It's actually making sense to me."

Yep; Spanish isn't a difficult language. Knowing another language helps, too, even if none of the words are similar.


"I find it funny how my spanish teacher never got any of this stuff through my head."

I don't understand how she couldn't, all the more so considering she must have a teaching degree of some sort.


Ar and ir present-tense verbs follow a similar format as er verbs.

Caminar is to walk.

Camino; Caminamos
Caminas
Camina; Caminan

Dormir is to sleep. It's an irregular "stem-changer" verb - in this case, the o changes to ue.

Duermo; Dormimos
Duermes
Duerme; Duermen

Notice that the nosotros form keeps the o the same. There are a lot of cases where the nosotros form of a stem-changer verb will stay the same (the root or stem is the part you get when you take the ar, er, or ir off the infinitive).

Let's see... here's a little vocab for you.

Gato -- Perro (oh, forgot to tell you, double rr's have a special "rolling" sound, but I myself don't know how to make it) -- Computadora -- Libros -- Ojo -- Oso

[pteriforever]

I don'tget it.

Tu as quel age?

[Ten]

"Tu as quel age?"
--
What is that supposed to mean?

[hostlietakeover]

"What is that supposed to mean?"
~x~
I think Pteri ment what is your age... which I believe is ¿Quantos años tienes?
¿Verdad?

Btw Ten, you make a very good Spanish teacher, though my only question is why didn't you include the vosotros/as form? I know it's only used in Spain, but it's always good to use. Besides, I thought vosotros/as was "they all".

[Ten]

"¿Quantos años tienes?
¿Verdad?"
--
Cuantos, pero sí.


"you make a very good Spanish teacher"
--
Aw, shucks.


"why didn't you include the vosotros/as form?"
--
Nobody I know uses it and Paije hasn't told me about any plans to travel to Spain.


"Besides, I thought vosotros/as was 'they all'."
--
Nope, it's you plural informal. ...wait, "they all"? "They" already is plural, so why would you add "all"?

[Ten]

So based on what I've posted, can you conjugate vivir (to live) in present tense?

[[.___Paije] !]

can you conjugate vivir (to live) in present tense?
---
Umum...I think I can. Wouldn't it be something like... vida? Or would it be something different? >.< +not sure+

[Ten]

"Wouldn't it be something like... vida?"
--
When I say conjugate this verb, unless I specify, I mean for you to do all five forms: yo, nosotros, tú, él/ella/usted, ellos/ellas/ustedes.

Vivir is an ir verb, so go back and look at how those are done.
