2.3 Verbs ending with -ir
The next verb type ends in -ir. Again, we will focus for now only on regular verb forms.
We need to find the verb stem by removing the ending in the infinitive form (-ir). For example, the stem for recibir (to receive) is recib. The conjugation is as follows:
| yo |
-o |
nosotros/nosotras |
-imos |
| tú |
-es |
vosotros/vosotras |
-ís |
| él, ella |
-e |
ellos/ellas |
-en |
Now again use the right endings to form the conjugation:
| yo recibo = I receive |
|
| tú recibes = you receive |
|
| él recibe = he receives |
|
| ella recibe = she receives |
|
| nosotros recibimos = we receive (masculine) |
|
| nosotras recibimos = we receive (feminine) |
|
| vosotros recibís = you receive (masculine) |
|
| vosotras recibís = you receive (feminine) |
|
| ellos reciben = they receive (masculine) |
|
| ellas reciben = they receive (feminine) |
|
