OpenStudy (turingtest):

please don't just tag people, actually put the question in the post

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (turingtest):

again, stem changing (o-ue) 3rd person singular changes "er" to "e"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

devuelve would be the answer

OpenStudy (turingtest):

correct again :) I think you should review the rules for basic conjugations regular verbs (present tense) ending in "ir" or "er": example: "comer" yo como (er-o) tú comes (er-es) el/ella come (er-e) ellos/ellas/ustedes comen (er-en) nosotros comemos (er-emos)

OpenStudy (turingtest):

ending in "ar": example: "tomar" yo tomo (ar-o) tú tomas (ar-as) el/ella toma (ar-a) ellos/ellas/ustedes toman (ar-an) nosotros tomamos (ar-amos)

OpenStudy (turingtest):

those are just for regular verbs, there are irregular ones that you have to learn separately. ex: yo (poner) = yo pongo. You also need to know the three possible stem changes that can occur within some words when conjugated in present tense (o-ue, e-ei, e-i). ex: él (dormir) = él duerme tú (sentir) = tú sientas yo (pedir) = yo pido

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (turingtest):

btw stem-changing does not occur in conjugations for "nosotros" ex: "nosotros dormemos" (notice no o-ue change there) stem changes also do no occur in other tenses besides the present. I have to go now, good luck!
