- We learned 10 new verbs today, 9 stem changers, and the verb saber = to know.
- Students conjugated all the new verbs, and then worked on making sentences fcr these new verbs and the new vocabulary words.
I. Stem changing verbs:
these verbs, known as boot verbs have a different beginning for all pronouns except "nosotros" and "vosotros". It is the beginning that changes, not the ending. (See below in bold)
a) Jugar = to play u to ue (the 'u' changes to 'ue')
juego jugamos
juegas jugáis
juega juegan
IMPORTANT: When you are playing a sport, you use jugar + a. Remember that "a" + "el" changes into "al".
Yo juego al béisbol. = I play baseball.
b) Pensar = to think e to ie (the 'e' changes to an 'ie')
pienso pensamos
piensas pensáis
piensa piensan
The other verbs that are conjugated like “pensar” are:
cerrar = to close (cierro…)
empezar = to begin (empiezo…)
entender = to understand (entiendo…)
merendar = to have a snack (meriendo…)
perder = to lose (pierdo…)
preferir = to prefer (prefiero…)
querer = to want (quiero…)
IMPORTANT: The 'e' that changes to 'ie' is the one in bold letter.
