Irregular verbs
Some conjugated verbs are irregular due to a stem-change from ‘e’ to ‘ie’ or ‘o’ to ‘ue’ or ‘e’ to ‘i’ or ‘u’ to ‘ue’:
Verbs that change from “e” to “ie” when conjugated
Verbs that change from ‘o’ to ‘ue’ when conjugated
Verbs that change from “e” to “i” when conjugated
Verbs that change from “u” to “ue” when conjugated
Some conjugated verbs are required to be irregular to keep the proper pronunciation as there are hard and soft c’s and g’s:
Verbs that change from “c” to “qu” when conjugated
Verbs that change from “c” to “zc” when conjugated
Verbs that change from “g” to “gu” when conjugated
Verbs that change from ‘g’ to ‘j’ when conjugated
Verbs that change from “z” to “c” when conjugated
Verbs that change from “c” to “z” when conjugated
Verbs that end with “guar”: gu changes to gü in yo preterite, in present subjunctives and in commands (except tú affirmative). Example: averiguar – averigüé (yo preterite).
Some conjugated verbs are irregular to maintain proper stress with written accent mark:
Verbs that change from ‘i’ to ‘í’ when conjugated
Verbs that change from ‘u’ to ‘ú’ when conjugated
Some conjugated verbs are just irregular:
‘Yo’ present indicative ‘go’ ending verbs
‘Yo’ present indicative ‘oy’ ending verbs
Verbs that change from “u” to “uy” and ‘i’ to ‘y’ when conjugated
