Verb conjugation is when we change the verb out of the infinitive form so that it agrees with a subject. To have a complete sentence, you need to include a conjugated verb. ****** PRESS HERE for a RECORDING that reviews infinitives, subject pronouns, and conjugations. To watch the video: make sure you are signed into your CCA Microsoft account (email is login name for edio with @ccastudents.me and password to get into your edio account) The present tense is used to talk about things happening now or in the near future, facts, and current routines.

• Trabajo para el banco en el centro de la ciudad. - "I work for the bank in the center of the city."
• La naturaleza es una de las cosas más bonitas en el mundo. - "Nature is one of the most beautiful things in the world."

LINK TO NOUNS and PRONOUNS NOTEBOOK (PRESS) Object pronouns can replace a direct object (who or what carries out the action) and an indirect object (that which receives the results of the action). Ejemplo:

• Ángela compró unos juguetes para Gerardo.- "Ángela bought some toys for Gerardo."
• Ángela los compró.- "Ángela bought them."
• Ángela le compró unos juguetes.- "Ángela bought him some toys."

Indirect objects in English often have "to" or "for" in front of them: to/for him because the indirect object is usually the recipient or the person who benefits from the action. Ejemplo: Te preparo el desayuno.- "I'm making you breakfast. / I'm making breakfast for you." When using a direct object pronoun with an indirect object pronoun, the indirect object pronoun comes before the direct object pronoun. Ejemplos:

• He gives his sister the toy. He gives it to her. → Él le da el juguete a su hermana. Él se lo da.
• She sets the alarm for Tony. She sets it for him. → Ella le arma el despertador a Tony. Ella se lo arma.

When using both the direct AND indirect object pronouns in a sentence, the indirect object pronoun comes before the direct object pronoun. Ejemplos:

• Él me lo dijo.- "He told (it to) me."
• Trini te lo regaló.- "Trini gave it to you (as a gift)."

When a third person indirect object pronoun, le or les, goes before a third person direct object pronoun lo, la, los or las, the le or les changes to se.

• le (him) → se (him)

Ángela se los compró.- "Angela bought them for him."

For an activity to review reflexive verbs, PRESS HERE Verbs that end with –se (like mantenerse, estirarse, relejarse) are Reflexive Verbs and the use of the reflexive pronouns me, te, se, nos, os and se are used to indicate that someone or something does an action on or for itself.

• ex. Nos estiramos antes de ir en la caminata.– "We stretched before going on the hike."
• For a video review of reflexive verbs, please PRESS HERE

Many of the verbs above use se to show internal states or changes within the subject. Ejemplos:

• Bayan le sonríe a la maestra.– "Bayan smiles at the teacher" (an external recipient)
• Yo me sonrío.– "I (am experiencing the urge to) smile." (an internal state or change)

Ir versus Irse Although ir and irse look similar, they should be thought of as two different verbs. → Ir means "to go" or "to go to" and requires a destination. The destination may be clearly expressed or it could be implied. → Irse means "to leave" or "to leave from." The focus of this verb is the starting point. It can be a stated or implied starting point. Examples:

• Voy al campo para pescar.– "I go to the countryside to fish."
• Sara fue a la tienda de ropa el fin de semana pasado.– "Sara went to the clothing store last weekend."
• ¿Ibas al supermercado con tu madre?– "Did you used to go the supermarket with your mother?"
• Me voy.– "I'm leaving."
• Nicola se queda triste cuando su padre se va al trabajo.– "Nicola is left feeling sad when her father leaves for work."

You are likely familiar with the verbs “ser” and “estar.” Because both words translate to mean “is, am” or “are,” sometimes it is difficult to tell when to use which verb. SEE BELOW FOR MORE ABOUT SER and ESTAR When describing foods, it is appropriate to use both ser and estar. However, to use them correctly, keep this simple rule in mind. When describing the characteristics of the food, use “ser.” When describing the condition of the food, use “estar.” Here is a simple way to distinguish between the two verbs. Ejemplos:

• La salsa es muy picante.
• La salsa está muy picante.

The first sentence means that the sauce is normally very hot/spicy. “Very hot/spicy” is a characteristic of the sauce. The second sentence means that the sauce is not normally hot/spicy, but it is now. Although the sauce would normally not be described as hot/spicy, its condition is hot/spicy now.

The topics below in light yellow are for your reference as you work on improving your Spanish in this unit.

There are three verb moods in English and Spanish grammar: the indicative, the imperative, and the subjunctive.

• Indicative: Most of the verb forms that you learned in Spanish 1 and 2 were in the indicative forms. These include present, present progressive, preterite, and imperfect conjugations.

• Imperative: The formal and informal commands that you learned in Unit 3 and are learning in Unit 4 make up the imperative mood.

• Subjunctive: The subjunctive mood is used for expressing wishes, suggestions, doubts, desires, and more. It is used occasionally in English, but quite often in Spanish.

PRESS HERE FOR A BRIEF VIDEO REVIEW OF THESE MOODS

The future tense is frequently combined with si (if) and the present tense to talk about what someone will do in a situation that could very well happen. si + (present tense), (future tense).

• Si consigo el trabajo, trabajaré duro. – "If I get the job, I will work hard."
• Si Darius estudia medicina, será médico. – "If Darius studies medicine, he will be a doctor."
• Si me ofrecen un salario bajo, no aceptaré el puesto. – "If they offer me a low salary, I will not take the position."

Conjugations for future tense Endings added to Infinitive for future tense Singular Plural 1a Persona -é -emos 2a Persona -ás -éis 3a Persona -á -án Irregular Verbs in the Future tense The future tense endings (-é, -ás, -á, -emos, -éis, -an), which are added to the infinitives to form future tense, are added to these irregular stems: Infinitive Irregular Stem Add these endings decir dir- -é -ás -á -emos -éis -án hacer har- poder podr- querer querr- saber sabr- tener tendr- venir vendr-

Vowels The vowel sounds remain the same everywhere, and there are no “silent” vowels. Spanish vowel sounds are sharp and focused. Keep your mouth and tongue still while making these sounds. I - ee [like the /ee/ in feet] E – ay [like the /ay/ in hay] A – ahh [like the /a/ in father] O – oh [like the /oh/ in donut] U – oo [like the /oo/ in boot] PRESS HERE for an audio recording of these vowel sounds; Press here to go to a website with more examples of vowel sounds and words with vowels If you say them in this order (i, e, a, o, u), your mouth will move from the widest opening to the narrowest, as in the image below. Special note on gü: When you see the two dots above the u, the u vowel sound will be similar to /w/ in wet. The two dots are called a dieresis. The resulting sound will be a diphthong. For example, bilingüe. This is the same sound as when the vowel “a” follows gu (example: guapo). Watch a video for more information: PRESS HERE Consonants Many consonants make the same sounds in Spanish as they do in English! There are some exceptions: C – after the letters a, o, u → /k/ like cat; example: carrito C –after the letters e, i → /s/ like say, see; example: cierto G – after the letters a, o, u → /g/ like gum; example: despegar; guitarra G – after the letters e, i → /h/ like hay or hee; girar H – silent; example: horario LL – like the /y/ in yellow; example: apellido Ñ - like the /ny/ in canyon; example: mañana V – like /b/ in box; example: volar Z – like /s/ in some (except in Spain, then it’s like /th/); example: zorro (Spanish accent: zorro) Qu – like /k/ in cat; example: quiero, queso J – like /h/ in hello; example: joven

The preterite tense is used to talk about completed actions, actions done a specific number of times, or actions within a specific time frame.

• Compré una correa nueva anoche. - "I bought a new leash last night."
• Vashti y yo patinamos sobre hielo tres veces el mes pasado. - "Vashti and I ice-skated three times last month."

PRESS HERE FOR THE PRETERITE TENSE NOTEBOOK Press here for Grammar Reference Sheets for our course.

The imperfect tense is used to talk about background events in a story, something people used to do as a matter of habit, weather, and describing things in the past.

• Mi madre cocinaba mientras yo jugaba un juego de mesa. - "My mother was cooking while I was playing a board game."
• De niña, ellas practicaban los deportes todos los días. - "As a child, she played sports every day."

PRESS HERE FOR THE IMPERFECT VERB TENSE NOTEBOOK Press here for Grammar Reference Sheets for our course.

Press here for Reference Sheet for Preterite and Imperfect. Genially Quiz with Preterite and Imperfect Questions (press here) Palabras importantes para el imperfecto Ejemplo Mientras – while → This can be used to show two actions that are occurring simultaneously in the past Mi madre cocinaba mientras yo leía una revista. “My mother was cooking while I was reading a magazine.” Siempre – always → The word siempre indicates a habitual action, or one that was repeated in the past. Yo siempre hacía la tarea antes de jugar afuera. “I always used to do my homerowk before playing outside.” Todos los veranos/otoños/días/meses/años, etc. - every summer/fall/day/month/year, etc. → The words todos, “all” or “every” indicates an action that was repeated Mi familia y yo íbamos a la playa todos los veranos. “My family and I used to go to the beach every summer.” De niña, ella practicaba el piano todos los días. “As a child, she practiced the piano every day.” Palabras importantes para el pretérito Ejemplo Ayer – yesterday Ayer yo visité a mi bisabuelo en el hospital. “Yesterday I visited my great grandfather in the hospital.” Anoche – last night Anoche ellos preparon la cena. “Yesterday they prepared dinner.” Anteayer – the day before yesterday Mi hermano compró un camión anteayer. “My brother bought a truck the day before yesterday.” el fin de semana pasada/la semana pasada - last weekend, last week Los estudiantes aprendieron muchas cosas nuevas la semana pasada. – "The students learned many new things last week." de repente- suddenly This is used to signal a change or contrast (also a beginning). Ella se despertó de repente. – "She suddenly woke up." en seguida- at once, right away, immediately Sonó el despertador, y en seguida, el bebé empezó a llorar. – "The alarm went off and at once, the baby began to cry." por fin, finalmente- finally Por fin, papá llegó a casa. – "Finally, Dad arrived home." You can use both tenses to talk about something that happened (preterite) while something else was going on in the background or to describe the background (imperfect). Review the following examples:

• Nos hicimos amigos cuando éramos jóvenes. – "We became friends when we were young."
  • Explicación: The preterite is used to say that you became friends, while the imperfect is used to say that you were young.

• Cuando mis padres llegaron a casa, yo escuchaba música.– "When my parents arrived home, I was listening to music."
  • Explicación: The act of listening to music was interrupted by the parents who entered the house. The imperfect is always used with interrupted actions.

• Cuando la vi, Carmen paseaba con su perro que caminaba locamente y olía todo. – "When I saw her, Carmen was walking her dog that was walking crazily and smelling everything."
  • Explicación: The various acts of Carmen and her dog are occurring simultaneously. They may be seen as descriptive or photographic, and therefore require the imperfect tense.

• Ayer no salimos de la casa porque hacía mucho frío y había hielo en las calles.- "Yesterday we did not leave the house because it was very cold and there was ice in the streets."
  • Explicación: The action, salir, is in the preterite and is set against background information, which is described using the imperfect.

As you can see, the preterite and the imperfect go hand in hand when narrating in the past.

The conditional is used to talk about probabilities and hypothetical situations. You may have used it in the past to make polite requests. Ejemplos del condicional:

• Me gustaría... – "I would like..."
• Querría... – "I would want..."

HINT: Do NOT use a translator when trying to write sentences with the conditional in Spanish for our course. Learn the conjugations and uses of the conditional. You will write your responses incorrectly if you use an online translator to look up what the word "would" is in Spanish. The conditional tense is used:

• to indicate probability, possibility, and conjecture
• to make polite or formal requests
• with "if" (si) clauses and the imperfect subjunctive to express unlikely events (do not worry too much about this one for now)

More about the Conditional: The conditional tense can be combined with different verb forms. It can be used in sentences with the present tense, the preterite tense, and the imperfect tense. It can also be used with the imperfect subjunctive mood. Take a look at this example:

• Si la herida de Dillon fuera grave, le pondrían puntos.
• "If Dillon's wound were [imperfect subjunctive] severe, they would give [conditional] him stitches."

The verb fuera is conjugated in the imperfect subjunctive tense. This is a formation that you have not yet learned. It is used to present a situation or action as speculative or even counterfactual in the present, like in the example above: Dillon's wound may not be severe, but if it were severe, then what would happen. Conjugation of the conditional. To form the conditional tense you:

• start with the infinitive form of the verb (do NOT remove the ending)
• add on -ía, -ías, -ía, -íamos, -íais, or -ían.

NOTE: These endings are the same for -ar, -er, and -ir verbs. Examples hablar comer vivir yo hablaría comería viviría tú hablarías comerías vivirías él/ella/Usted hablaría comería viviría nosotros hablaríamos comeríamos viviríamos vosotros hablaríais comeríais viviríais ellos/ellas/Ustedes hablarían comerían vivirían Irregular Verbs in the Conditional Tense To form conditional tense or irregular verbs, change the infinitive to its’ irregular Stem before adding the Conditional endings. Infinitive Change to Irregular Stem Add Conditional Endings Decir dir- -ía -ías -ía -íamos -íais -ían Salir saldr- Hacer har- Querer querr- Poder podr- Venir vendr- Tener tendr- Saber sabr- Valer valdr-

  • Tengo ganas de ser – I have the urge/feeling to be
