Regular Present Tense Verbs
Regular -AR verbs are one of the largest and most important verb groups in Spanish. Because they follow predictable conjugation patterns, they give learners a reliable foundation for expressing actions in the present tense. Mastering these endings allows students to talk about everyday activities, describe routines, and build clear, complete sentences. Understanding regular -AR verbs is a key step toward confident, effective communication in Spanish.
Remove -ar, add endings:
