AR, Er and IR conjugations
by Aidan Thomas and Ivan Velazquez
Why do we use conjugations?
Er,Ir and Ar:
We use conjugations in order to match the verb to it's subject. First we take off the ar,er and ir endings and replace them with the conjugations that match their subject. Ex: hablar-ar=habl. Habl+yo=hablo. Depending on the ending , we use the the conjugation that goes with the ending.
What are the steps?
1.drop off the er, ar or ir endings to find the stem of the verb
2.Add the correct ending according to it's subject.
