In Spanish, adding a reflexive pronoun like 'me', 'te', or 'se' to a verb can sometimes completely change its meaning. This deck will teach you some of the most common verbs that change, helping you understand these important nuances.
Lesson#2
Let's start with 'ir' and 'irse'. The verb 'ir' means 'to go', usually to a specific destination. For example, 'Voy a la playa' means 'I'm going to the beach'. The pronominal form 'irse' means 'to leave' or 'to go away' from a place, without necessarily specifying a destination.
Quiz#3
Translate into Spanish: 'I'm going to the office.'
Voy a la oficina.
Quiz#4
Translate into Spanish using a pronominal form: 'I'm leaving now.'
Me voy ahora.
Lesson#5
Next, consider 'quedar' and 'quedarse'. 'Quedar' often means 'to be left' or 'to remain', referring to objects. It can also mean 'to arrange to meet'. 'Quedarse', however, means 'to stay' or 'to remain' in a place yourself.
Quiz#6
Translate into Spanish: 'There are two tickets left.'
Quedan dos entradas.
