Special verbs
Some common verbs, like ir, don't follow the regular patterns we've seen.
| subject | verb (ir) |
| yo I | voy go |
| tú you | vas go |
| él / ella / usted he / she / you | va goes / go |
| nosotros / nosotras we | vamos go |
| ellos / ellas / ustedes they / you all | van go |
Me ducho todos los días
Remember, some Spanish verbs always need a me, te, or se before them.
Yo siempre me levanto a las ocho.
I always get up at eight.
¡Mi perro nunca se ducha!
My dog never showers!
A las once
Use ¿A qué hora…? to ask what time something is going to happen.
¿A qué hora vas a la biblioteca?
What time are you going to the library?
And you can answer using a las plus an hour.
Voy a la biblioteca a las once.
I am going to the library at eleven.
¡Tengo que estudiar!
When you have to do something in Spanish, use tener que, plus the infinitive form of what you have to do.
¿Cuándo tienes que ir a la oficina?
When do you have to go to the office?
Ana tiene que estudiar.
Ana has to study.
