When to conjugate a verb?
I was just curious as to if you're writing a sentence that has more than one verb in it, how would you know which verbs to conjugate?
Thank you, Jamie |
The rules for this are basically the same as in English. I think the basic rule would be you conjugate the first verb in a given clause and any subsequent verbs would be in the infinitive form.
I am going to go to the store. Voy a ir a la tienda. You could also post some specific examples and we can help you with them. :) |
I'm going to go to dance with my wife to the disco.
I'm going to go to take shower in the home of my brother is night. Gael Arturo and Luis Angel together going to go buy the food for the party of tomorrow, it will be Miguel Alfonso house's. |

Let me go: Déjame ir I want to go: Quiero ir Stop talking: Deja de hablar |

Lo quiero para llevar. No dejes de hablar. Vine a decir que... Although I agree that this is still simpler than in English where sometimes you use the infinitive with or without the to, and sometimes you use the gerund. |
You are not considering other verbal periphrasis as participle and gerund ones:

Thank you ver much Rusty.
I write other example. Jose y Maria van a ir a la playa a jugar con sus hijos manana en la tarde. Jose and Maria going to the beach to play with their children tomorrow in the afternoon. I hope you all are well. I await your corrections. |

Thank you for the answers, everyone.
Basically, if a sentence had three or four verbs in it, the first one would be conjugated and rest of the verbs would be in the infinitive form, right? |
My example was almost perfect.
I will write another example: Lorena hasn't got diapers for her son, she is going to buy diapers to the super market, and later she'll come back, her house to change the diaper to her son, later she is going to food in a restaurant with her son. I hope my example is well. Regards. |

Si hubieras venido corriendo me habrías impedido pagar. But I cannot think of a sentence with more than one infinitive if they are not linked by y/o (and / or). |
