Verb DOLER
(to hurt)
Verb DOLER is used very similarly as verb
GUSTAR. We will only use two forms of it:
DUELE and DUELEN
• Singular
For a body part
that is singular,
such CABEZA we
use DUELE
• Plural
For a body part
that is plural, such
as DEDOS, we use
DUELEN
Another similarity between verbs DOLER
and GUSTAR is the pronouns we use with
them.
• We do not use
regular subject
pronouns such:
• Yo, tu, el, ella,
nosotros, ellos, ellas
• We use the same
pronouns we use with
GUSTAR:
• ME - MY
• TE - YOUR
• LE – HIS,HER
• NOS - OUR
• LES – THEIR
• LES (UDS.) – YOUR (PL.)
Even though we use regular POSSESSIVE
ADJECTIVES in English, we still use regular
ME-TE-LE-NOS-LES pronouns in Spanish
