    sorry if you said this but, do verbs stem change in past tense?

    • @LingoLearner
      @LingoLearner  5 лет назад +2

      Good question! The answer is NO: stem changers generally don't change in the preterite; with two exceptions: -IR verbs that had an e>i or o>ue stem change will get an e>i or o>u stem change for the 3rd person singular and plural.
      Normal example: contar (to tell/recount, o>ue stem change in present) - no stem change in preterite. "Ahora la dama cUEnta su historia. Ayer también, la dama cOntó su historia." (Now the lady tells her story. Yesterday as well, the lady told her story. )
      Exception example: dormir (to sleep, o>ue stem change in present) - o>u stem change in preterite 3rd person. "Ahora dUErmo mucho. Ayer dOrmí hasta tarde pero mi hermana dUrmió poco." (Now I sleep a lot. Yesterday I slept late but my sister slept very little).
      Hope that helps!

    • @LingoLearner
      @LingoLearner  10 месяцев назад +1

      Hola! While we include Vosotros conjugations in charts, we default to Latin American Spanish for conversational content. That's why we used "Ustedes" forms instead of "Vosotros" forms in these examples.

    when do we use "E" to "I"? im confuse with e to ie and e to i.

    • @LingoLearner
      @LingoLearner  3 года назад

      Knowing if the "e" in a stem switches to "i" or "ie," or even switches at all, is a detail that must be memorized when you learn the infinitive. For example, it's not enough to learn that "Servir = to serve." Your thought process when learning that verb should be "Servir (e to i stem changer) = to serve." Give 0:46 a rewatch!

    I don't understand nopales. Whenever I put them in my mouth they have this weird spicy flavor. It's like pins and needs, and then they also always come with this weird runny red sauce that tastes like meat with a metallic aftertaste which only comes after the first bite. And don't tell me how course they are to go down, even if you chew them (Which makes them even spicier) you still get awful stomach pain. Honestly, my advice is not to eat nopales. No matter how good they taste.

    • @LingoLearner
      @LingoLearner  2 года назад +1

      Remember from the subject pronouns video that many countries don't use Vosotros, but instead use Ustedes to mean you plural. "Duermen" is the Ustedes form :-) Especially since 'ladies and gentlemen' sounds formal, you will use Ustedes even in Spain.
