18. Snakeys Snakey verbs are verbs that change the second ‘e’ in the verb. These go into verbs such as leer, creer, oir, etc. For first and second person, the second ‘e’ changes to an ‘i’, and in third person, the ‘e’ changes to a ‘y’.

19. Se Impersonal In order to not specify who is doing the action of the verb, ‘se’ is used. The verb ALWAYS needs to be in third person, and can be used in all tenses. Se corre en el parque. Se comío la hamburguesa.

26. Tú Commands (Informal) Used with classmates, siblings, younger people Affirmative: simply drop the ‘s’ Negative: Conjugate to ‘yo’ form, change to opposite vowel, add an ‘s’. Don’t forget to add the accent on the third from last vowel if you’re hooking on a DOP! ¡Cómelo! ¡No duermas!

28. For the negatives, conjugate regularly. Decir -> Di Hacer -> Haz Ir -> Ve Poner -> Pon Salir -> Sal Ser -> Sé Tener -> Ten Venir -> Ven ¡Hazlo! ¡No hagas!
