# Easy Level Guide
Build confidence with foundational questions. Review key vocabulary and core skills before moving to harder sets.
# Infinitives and Conjugation
Spanish verbs end in -AR, -ER, or -IR in the infinitive form. To conjugate, drop the -AR ending and add endings that match the subject. Each pronoun (yo, tú, él, nosotros, vosotros, ellos) has its own ending.
# -AR Present Endings
For regular -AR verbs: yo -o, tú -as, él/ella/usted -a, nosotros -amos, vosotros -áis, ellos/ustedes -an. Example with hablar: hablo, hablas, habla, hablamos, habláis, hablan.
# Common -AR Verbs
Estudiar (to study), trabajar (to work), necesitar (to need), and mirar (to look) follow the same pattern. Stem changes do not affect regular -AR verbs. Practice translating simple sentences.
# Using Present Tense
Present tense can describe habitual actions, general truths, and actions happening now. Time words like siempre (always) and todos los días (every day) often signal present tense. Subject pronouns may be omitted when context is clear.
