SPANISH (Stem changing verbs) BOOT VERBS
Only “nosotros” doesn’t have this change I stay out of the boot! NOSOTROS
All boot verb conjugations that would be “in the boot” have a change before adding the regular endings.
I feel regular & normal. I don’t like all of these crazy changes, so I avoid boots. NOSOTROS
Please click on the form that would not have a BOOT verb change. Él Ella Ellos Nosotros Tú Yo
Some boot change verbs take an innocent little “e” and make it into an “ie.” See what happens with the verb “pensar”
Now the “e” becomes “ie”. Piens-
For example: With “Yo” you add the “-o”. Yo Pienso
What would you add with “Tú?” -o -as Tú Piens_ -a -nosotros -an
¡Muy bien! TúPiensas
So now that you know about the “-e” to “-ie” boot verbs, click on the form that would not make this change with these boot verbs: Él (pensar) Yo (querer) Ella (comenzar) Nosotros (preferir) Tú (cerrar)
¡Excelente! Notice that the “nosotros” form kept its innocent little “e,” but nobody else did? Él piensa Yo quiero Ellas comienzan Nosotros preferimos Tú cierras
You remembered that “nosotros” doesn’t have the boot verb change. I stay out of the boot! NOSOTROS
So now you get the idea of the “e” to “ie” boot verbs. There are some boot verbs that make a change from an “o” or a “u” into “ue.” One that we have practiced is “jugar.” It is a “u” to “ue” boot verb.
All you need to do now is get through a maze to give “jugar” its “ue.”
Sounds simple, doesn’t it?All you have to do to finish the practice it get to the “ue.”
Ok, click the “jugar” button to play. Oh, by the way: Don’t touch the walls of the maze. You will have 10 seconds. Suerte. JUGAR
UE JUGAR
Ouch! You got the boot! That must have hurt! Try again.
¡Tú juegas muy bien! You have completed your boot verb practice! P.S.: I was just kidding about only having 10 seconds. If you did it that fast, give yourself a pat on the back. Gracias.
Now just write your name and date on a paper with a note telling that you practiced boot verbs.This will give you wonderful extra credit!¡Chévere!
