CONJUGATING VERBS
INFINITIVE – the base form of the verb
 In Spanish, infinitives end in –AR, –ER, or –IR.
 In English infinitives consist of the word “to” and a verb. Example: to walk
 When you look up a verb in a Spanish/English dictionary, it will be in its infinitive
form.
CONJUGATION – putting the verb with possible subject for use in a sentence.
 Infinitives cannot be used as is in sentences.
 The infinitive ending [–AR, –ER, or –IR] is removed and new endings are added
depending on the subject.
