✨ A trio of action… Verbal endings –AR, -ER, -IR

Verbs indicate action, what happens, or what is done. And in Spanish, the 3 categories or conjugations are divided, according to their ending. The infinitive is the form used to enunciate verbs and the three endings are –ar, -er, -ir. Verbs can be grouped depending on their ending in the first, second or third conjugation.

I show you the 3 conjugation models of the regular verbs, in the simple tenses. In another article, we can talk about compound times. You should know that the root of the verb will never change, that’s why we call them regular, what changes are the last letters.
