Verbs that end in "ar" change their form depending on who is doing the action, just like a toy changes shape when you push it different ways.
Imagine you have a favorite toy car. When you push it, it goes "car". But if your friend pushes it, it becomes "cars", and if your brother pushes it, it turns into "car" again but with a different sound, like "cars" or "carrs".
Verbs ending in "ar" work the same way. The basic form is "ar", like to play (in Spanish: jugar). When you use the verb, it changes based on who is doing the action.
How It Changes
- If you are doing something, it becomes "as", like you play: jugas.
- If your friend is doing it, it becomes "a", like he plays: juga.
- If your brother is doing it, it becomes "an", like she plays: jugan.
It’s just like a toy car that changes shape depending on who pushes it, simple and fun!
Examples
- Pedro speaks Spanish every day, so he uses 'habla' when talking about himself.
- Maria wants to know what you eat, so she asks with 'coméis?'
- They go to the park on Sundays using 'van al parque.'
