Los Verbos con Cambios Radicales
AKA: Los Verbos de Zapato
Spanish Stem-Changing Verbs
e→iee→i
o→ueu→ue
How do these verbs work?
First, let’s start with one.Querer: to want, to love
Rule #1 Los verbos de zapato tienen las conjugaciones regulares.
oasa
amosáisan
oese
emos éisen
oese
imosísen
They look like boxes.
hablar – ar = stemhablo hablamoshablas habláishabla hablan
comer – er = stemcomocomemoscomescoméiscomecomen
vivir – ir = stemvivovivimosvives vivísvive viven
Rule #2The stem changes.
What’s the stem again?
Infinitive - ar/er/ir ending = STEM
Hablar – ar = Habl
Beber – er = Beb
Vivir – ir = Viv
Rule #3
There are no stem changes in the Nosotros and Vosotros forms. Ever. Never.

• Add the conjugation endings to the rest of the forms leaving room for the new stem.
Querer
o queremos
es queréis
e en
• Now let’s make the new stem:
Infinitive - ar/er/ir ending = STEM
Querer – er = Querer (ie) - er =
QuerQuier
• Add the new stem to your 4 remaining conjugations (All but the nosotros and vosotros forms.
Querer
quiero queremos
quieres queréis
quiere quieren
The u→ue and o→ue verbs work the same way.
• Poder• Jugar• Dormir
• to be able to (can)• to play• to sleep
First, find the o or u in the stem that is going to change to ue
• Poder• Jugar• Dormir
Then, decide which verb endings you will use.
Let’s start with:Jugar
jugar (u-ue) – to play
juego
juegas
juega juegan
jugamos
jugáis
