Master AR Verb Endings
- Conjugate regular AR verbs by memorizing the six endings and apply them consistently to verbs like hablar.
- Practice the full form: hablo, hablas, habla, hablamos, habláis, hablan until it becomes rhythmic.
Use AR Rhythm For ER Verbs
- Form ER verbs by using the same six-part rhythm as AR verbs but change the vowel to E.
- Practice with comer: como, comes, come, comemos, coméis, comen to internalize the pattern.
Note The IR 'Nosotros' Change
- Conjugate IR verbs like ER in the first three and last forms but use I in the nosotros and vosotros forms.
- Learn vivir: vivo, vives, vive, vivimos, vivís, viven through repetition.
