In Spanish, verbs are categorized into different types based on their endings and how they conjugate:
- Regular verbs: Follow a consistent pattern for conjugation. They end in -ar, -er, or -ir.
- Irregular verbs: Do not follow standard conjugation rules and must be memorized.
- Stem-changing verbs: Undergo a vowel change in the stem when conjugated in certain forms.
- Reflexive verbs: Include a reflexive pronoun and indicate the subject performs the action on itself.
Understanding these types helps with conjugation and overall Spanish grammar.
