Parte C. Irregular Verbs
Some verbs in Spanish are completely irregular. The only way to learn their
conjugations is to memorize them. There are other irregular verbs that follow some
normal conjugation patterns. Some of them may even have multiple irregularities
(ex. Stem-changing + yo-go like Tener; Stem-changing and reflexive: Despertarse)
 Stem-changing: Spelling change occurs in the 44._____________ of the verb
(the part before –AR, -ER, or –IR). Stem changes happen in all of the forms
except for the 45._______________ form, which gives them the nickname
“boot verbs.” There are 4 types of stem changing verbs.
46. E_______, 47. E- ________, 48. O-________, and 49. U-_______.
 Yo-Go Verbs: have an irregular spelling in the 50. __________ form that often
(but not always) end in 51. ___________.
 Reflexive Verbs: end in 52. _____________ and imply that the action is being
done to or for the subject. (Ex: washing your hair, brushing your teeth). If you
are conjugating a reflexive verb, you must put a reflexive pronoun 53. in front
of/behind (pick one) it. If the reflexive verb is left in the infinitive form, then
