explain how regular verb conjugation works. Write complete sentences that tell the process for conjugating irregular verb. How is a regular verb different from the irregular verb?
-when conjugating in Spanish you change the ending to match the subject. -For instants if you wanted to conjugate "hablar" and the subject is "yo" you would just drop the "ar" and replace it with an "o". -regular verbs are always conjugated by a set of rules, like all "yo" Forms drop the ending and add an "o". -irregular verbs do not follow conjugation rules and you have to memorize them.
