Irregular Preterites (irregular preterite forms in Spanish)
Irregular preterites
Have got their own set of stems
And their own set of endings
That don't have accent marks on them
Cup, sup, hub
Are caber, saber, haber
Quis, vin, hic
Are querer, venir, hacer
Endings: e, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
E, iste, o, imos isteis, ieron
Anduv, tuv, estuv
Andar, tener, estar
Traj, dij, traduj
Traer, decir, traducir
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
Finally now remember for poder the stem is pud
You see, they both have "d"
The stem rhymes with food
The toughest stem of all, although it's no excuse
The stem for poner
Isn't pon, it's pus
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
Have got their own set of stems
And their own set of endings
That don't have accent marks on them
Cup, sup, hub
Are caber, saber, haber
Quis, vin, hic
Are querer, venir, hacer
Endings: e, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
E, iste, o, imos isteis, ieron
Anduv, tuv, estuv
Andar, tener, estar
Traj, dij, traduj
Traer, decir, traducir
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
Finally now remember for poder the stem is pud
You see, they both have "d"
The stem rhymes with food
The toughest stem of all, although it's no excuse
The stem for poner
Isn't pon, it's pus
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
E, iste, o, imos, isteis, ieron
