Regular IR Verbs

The Spanish infinitive, or base form of the verb, is divided into two parts: the stem and the ending.

Many verbs end in

ir

.

The verb

escribir

(to write)

can be divided into the stem and base:

escrib

+

ir

.

In

order to conjugate a verb, you must change the ending in order to make the verb agree with the subject.

To conjugate a regular

ir

verb, drop the

ir

ending and add one of the following:

o, es, e, imos, ís, en

.

Here is the present tense conjugation of

escribir

:

yo escribo

tú escribes

él escribe

ella escribe

usted escribe

nosotros escribimos

nosotras escribimos

vosotros escribís

vosotras escribís

ellos escriben

ellas escriben

ustedes escriben
