How to conjugate
This is for people who are learning Spanish:
-AR infinitivos yo -o tú -as él -a ella -a Ud. -a nosotros -amos nosotras -amos vosotros -áis vosotras -áis Uds. -an ellas -an ellos -an -ER infinitivos yo -o tú -es él -e ella -e Ud. -e nosotros -emos nosotras -emos vosotros -éis vosotras -éis Uds. -en ellas -en ellos -en -IR infinitivos yo -o tú -es él -e ella -e Ud. -e nosotros -imos nosotras -imos vosotros -éis vosotras -éis Uds. -en ellas -en ellos -en Irregular Verbs PODER- to be able to, can (o-->ue) *yo: puedo *tú: puedes *él, ella, and Ud.: puede *nosotros and nosotras: podemos-- *ellas, ellos, and Uds.: pueden HACER- to make, to do *yo: hago *rest: follow the usual rules for conjugating -er infinitivos |
Right, nice work. However, may be easier if you sort the lines into six. For that, in modern spanish, we use the @ to mean male/female. So, how about:
-AR infinitivos such as bailar, volar, amar yo -o tú -as él/ella/Ud. -a nosotr@s -amos vosotr@s -ais (this one, the pl 'you people', was not on your original list) ell@s /uds -an |

as for vosotros and vosotras, we don't learn them in Spanish class. we don't use them |
I don't understand you. you said that you use the @ instead of A, mmm I'm sorry by telling you this but it's not correct in the grammar.
|
I agree with you, CrOtALiTo. We don't use the @.
|
The @ looks like an O, with an A inside. It's to show that they both have a masculine and a feminine form.
ellos y ellas. nosotros y nosotras. vosotros y vosotras. |
It's just more comfortable for your grammar notes, guys, besides, it is what Spanish teenagers (and learners in general) do here.
I think it looks cool :) |
well I don't use it...
|
I have also never used it, or thought about doing so, but it looks pretty good, maybe it would be worth using. It would at least spare some time.
|
Hmmm...using @ for o/a is a good idea - thanks.
|
It's certainly used. I found hundreds of thousands such uses on the Internet.
I would say it's safe to use it as a learning or teaching tool. We all know that only one or the other vowel should be used when speaking and officially writing in Spanish. |
okay, it's useful, but we can't use it in my Spanish class.

Ask your teacher about it, see if he/she has seen it used. :D
|
All right I will, but I'm sure we won't use it.
