Stem-changing verbs

AKA Boot verbs

media

2

Today we will

  • Review how to conjugate stem-changing verbs

  • Show our knowledge by taking a timed practice

  • Apply these verbs to lesson 4 vocabulary on pastimes/sports

3

Why are they called "Boot verbs"?

  • All the subject pronouns get a change in the stem of the verb before conjugating the ending.

  • When you circle all except the Nosotros form, the chart looks a little like a boot.

  • We don't learn the vosotros (only used in parts of Spain)

Let's break them down

7

O > UE stem change

  • the o in the stem changes to a ue for all forms *except* nosotros form

  • For example: I sleep - yo duermo ≠ dormo

  • We return - volvemos. Nothing changes in the stem for this form.

media

8

U > UE

  • *jugar* to play, is a u->ue stem changing verb

  • This is the only verb that makes this change

  • it has its own stem-change

media

9

E > IE

  • The verb querer (to want) has this change

  • Quer - er (remove ending)

  • Quie - (change stem)

  • Conjugate ending (Yo quier-o)

  • Not nosotros- queremos

media

10

E > IE

  • We have already learned a verb that sort of follows this pattern

  • The verb Tener follows this pattern except in the Nosotros AND yo formis

  • This makes it a "sock verb" because it only changes where a "sock" would go inside a boot

media

11

E > I

  • The verb repetir (to repeat) has this change

  • Repet - ir (remove ending)

  • Repit - (change stem)

  • Conjugate ending (Yo repit-o)

  • Not nosotros- repetimos

media

What if I forget?

Sometimes, when you do it 'wrong,' it feels wrong, like when you spell a word wrong and it just doesn't look 'right'. It will take time & practice. This is just the introduction.


Mistakes are VERY common when learning a new language and generally do not affect comprehension/understanding: people will still usually understand what you're saying


But keep practicing. You will see it like this (o:ue) in our vocab lists.
