I’ve been wearing a lot of hats lately, and have been unable to work on videos as much for my Youtube channel. Something I am working on is partnering with Voces Digital(part of Teacher’s Discovery) to make a cartoon series called Súper Lápiz for their level 1 curriculum.
In the curriculum that I am finishing, there is a place when the main character, Juanito, makes a viral video. Here is the viral video for you in the form of a song. I hope you enjoy! Special thanks to Ely García for helping me with the techno music.
This video lesson covers -ir verbs in the preterite that stem change.
In the present, they change (o-ue) in the yo, tú, él/ella/ud, ellos/ellas/uds forms. In the preterite, they do something a little different. I apologize for it being a little long. Hope this video is helpful.
Let me know if you have any questions, comments or suggestions about this video below. Enjoy!
Hola. Finally there is a video (although a little long) to explain those strange stem-changers in the preterite. Although you might remember that -ar and -er verbs in the preterite don’t stem-change like they do in the present, the -ir verbs have to be weird. This video will explain how (e-ie) and (e-i) -ir verbswork in the preterite. Enjoy!
Notice that servir is actually an (e-i) verb in the present. This was a mistake in the video!
Let me know if you have any questions, comments or suggestions about this video below!
This video lesson covers venir (to come). Venir is of course another irregular verb in the preterite. In this video, I also mention that whenever a verb has any irregular inside of it due to a prefix, the verb follow the pattern of the irregular.
Ex: suponer, mantener, detener, prevenir, etc
Enjoy!
