    GO verbs

    Some irregular verbs can be grouped together because they all have the same irregular change in their conjugation. The verbs listed below are called GO verbs because they have a GO in the YO form.   For example

    hacer (to do, to make)

    hago                        hacemos

    haces                       hacéis

    hace                        hacen                                                                                                                                                                                                        

    Read the list of other verbs that will have a GO in their YO form.

    caer                         to fall

    decir                        to say, to tell

    hacer                       to do, to make

    oír                            to hear

    poner                       to put, to place

    salir                          to leave

    tener                        to have

    traer                         to bring

    venir                        to come

     

    Read the following conjugations out loud.  Note that some verbs also have some other changes.  Try saying the verbs without the GO in the YO form or the other changes. Are they easier or harder to say with or without the changes?

    caer                                             decir

    caigo                caemos                    digo                decimos

    caes                 caéis                       dices                decís

    cae                   caen                       dice                 dicen

     

    hacer                                           oir

    hago                   hacemos                 oigo                oímos

    haces                  hacéis                     oyes                oís
