Can anyone give me the rundown of the basics of making a sentence?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, complete sentences, at the very least, have a SUBJECT, and a conjugated VERB. "Conjugated" means that it's in the correct form. Like this -- "I eat." In Spanish -- "Yo como." "Yo" would be the SUBJECT. "Como" would be the VERB. ~~~~~~~~~~ If you like, you can give me a sentence, in English. I can show you how to write it in Spanish. And I'll explain best I can.

just wondering,to make sure I'm remembering my espanol!! so would saying "you eat" be "tu come" ????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As InYourHead clearly stated, the verb has to be conjugated (that is put into its correct form); in Spanish that means matching the number of the subject. Tu comes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@iheartfood "Come" is actually the (Él/Ella/Usted) form of "comer." (Yo) Como (Tu) Comes (El/Ella/Usted) Come (Nosotros) Comemos (Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes) Comen
