Hoy en Clase (Spanish, Weds Oct 21)

Test retakes will be today and tomorrow at 3:45pm.

We took notes on a new verb: QUERER - to want
Querer is regular as far as the endings go, but it's an (e --> ie) stem changer.


Yo quiero
Tú quieres
él, ella, usted quiere
nosotros queremos (no stem change here!)
Ellos, ellas, ustedes quieren

We call these "boot verbs" since when we write them in a regular conjugation chart, the forms with the stem change make the shape of a boot (click here for a better visual).  The nosotros form never changes stem.



Then for our assignment, we did:
In notes: p 82 and 83 copy and translate every word
Separate paper (to turn in for a grade): p 84, act 2,3,4,5 answers only
