Welcome to this deck on regular verbs in the present tense in Spanish. The present tense is used to talk about things happening now, or things that happen regularly. In Spanish, verbs change their endings depending on who is doing the action. We call this conjugation. Most verbs follow a regular pattern based on whether they end in 'a r', 'e r', or 'i r'.

Let's start with regular verbs that end in 'a r', like 'hablar', which means 'to speak'. To conjugate them, you remove the 'a r' ending from the infinitive and add a new ending for each person. For example, for 'I speak', you add an 'o'. For 'you speak', you add an 'a s'. Let's practice the full set.
