Adverbs: Form and Function

Los adverbios: Forma y funcionamiento

When we speak of the various verb tenses, we must talk about both how to form the tense, as well as when we use it. Therefore, in this lesson, as with all the other verb tense lessons, we will look at both structure and use.

Grammatical Rules

Form

When conjugating the verb in the present simple, we use the infinitive with the following subjects: “I”, “you”, “we”, and “they”. For the third person (“he”, “she” and “it”), we add an “-s” to the end of the verb.

Subject	Conjugation
I, you, we, they	talk, eat, learn, do, go…
he, she, it	talks, eats, learns, does, goes…

Note: There are spelling exceptions in the third person, depending on the last letter(s) of the verb. The rules are the same as those for forming the plural. For more information, see the lesson on nouns.

Structure

1. Affirmative Sentences

Subject + verb.
