Let's remember how to form the inmediate past, gerund etc. and also we will see irregularities of these verbs.
I am making = Estoy haciendo I am working = Estoy trabajando
You are learning = Est ás aprendiendo
He is waiting = Está esperando
Irregularities Gerund :
CREER = Creyendo
LEER = Leyendo
DECIR = Diciendo
CAERSE = Cayendo
DORMIR = Durmiendo
The verbs finishing in -SE are reflexive, actions that we do to ourselves. For example Caerse, we fall ourselves, because if somebody else makes us fall it's already another verb. In other cases the particle -SE only adds strength to the verb: Quiero comer un sandwich= I want to eat a sandwich
Quiero comer me un sandwich = I want to eat a sandwich by myself (without sharing a bit)
I have gone = He ido
You have been in Madrid = Has estado en Madrid
We have listened the news = Hemos escuchado las noticias
They have fixed the T.V = Han arreglado la tele (Tele is short for television)
Irregularities of the participle :
VER = Visto (not verido)
ROMPER = Roto
PONER = Puesto
DECIR = Dicho
ECRIBIR = Escrito
Conjugation of the verbs in -SE PREOCUPARSE
Presente = Me preocupo I worry
Pasado inmediato = Acabo de preocuparme
I have just worried Futuro inmediato = Voy a preocuparme
I am going to worry Presente perfecto = Me he preocupado
I have worried
Listen to the audio file, the teacher will be saying the present of the verbs, try to catch as many as possible. We will be seeing in future texts if you wrote them correctly or not..
LESSON SEVENTEEN
We know already some forms of the verbs, in this lesson we will learn other forms and the differences between SER and ESTAR and between HABER and TENER
HABER will always be used like TO HAVE as the auxiliary : I have eaten = Yo he comido
TENER will always be used like TO HAVE as the active : I have a house = Tengo una casa or I have to go = Tengo que ir
SER will be used for things that don't change often (nationality, profession, phisical qualities...)
ESTAR will be used for things that change (moods, places where we are, things we look for...)
For things we look for always with ESTAR, doesn't matter if it's a cathedral what we are looking for and it won't change of place... for us until we find it, it's as if moving in the map.
Soy de Los Angeles y estoy en Madrid = I am from Los Angeles and I am in Madrid
The first one can't change, you are from L.A, you were born there and nothing can change that. The second one can change, you are now in Madrid, tomorrow you can be in a beach of La Coruña
Before using ser or estar ask to yourself...could this situation change in the next hours?
For example a book... El libro es bueno. We use ES because the book was written in a good way and it will be like this for centuries.
CONDITIONAL
I would run, I would go... All the three conjugations AR ER IR have the same endings
Yo nadaría, Tu nadarías, El nadaría, Nosotros nadaríamos, Vosotros nadaríais, Ellos nadarían
Yo comería, Tu comerías, El comería, Nosotros comeríamos,Vosotros comeríais, Ellos comerían
Remember always that the pronouns are not used most of the times because we know the person by the ending of the verbal form.
The endings are marked in blue and will always be the same for all verbs, we can see that the conditional is formed INFINITIVE + ENDING
I would eat with you, but I just have eaten = Comería contigo, pero acabo de comer
We would go if the party is good = Iríamos si la fiesta es buena.
FUTURE
We already know how to make the immediate future ( voy a comer = I am going to eat)
Now we will learn the simple future (I will eat), all the endings are the same for the three congugations.
Yo nadaré, Tu nadarás, El nadará, Nosotros nadaremos, Vosotros nadareis, Ellos nadarán
Yo viviré, Tu vivirás, El vivirá, Nosotros viviremos, Vosotros vivireis, Ellos vivirán
I will take = coger You will go = irás I will accept = aceptaré
How to use this forms with the reflexive verbs:
We will form exactly the same as a normal verb, let's see for example with GUSTAR
Me gusta = I like Me gustaría = I would like Me gustará = I will like
We use these endings because the verb doesn't refer to me, it refers to the thing we like.
We are saying "I would like it".
In this lesson pay special attention to the teacher when he says random verbs in future or conditional, and notice how all the endings are the same for all verbs.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You already know two more verbal forms and very importants. We need to see the two simple pasts in Spanish and you will be able to communicate expressing concepts in different presents, pasts and futures.
But first prepare to revise everything we have seen so far, the next lesson is all about fixing concepts, translating texts and understanding sentences.
