• Regular verbs are categorized into three groups: -ar verbs, -er verbs, and -ir verbs.

• The imperfect tense is used to talk about ongoing or habitual actions in the past.
• To form the preterite tense of regular -ar verbs, you remove the -ar ending and add the appropriate preterite endings: -é, -aste, -ó, -amos, -asteis, -aron.

• When conjugating reflexive verbs, the reflexive pronoun must agree with the subject of the verb.
• In Spanish, the subjunctive mood is used in dependent clauses after certain verbs or expressions.
• Verbs that express influence, desire, doubt, emotion, necessity, or uncertainty often trigger the use of the subjunctive mood.
• The subjunctive mood has different conjugations for each subject pronoun.
• To form the present subjunctive, take the yo form of the verb, drop the -o ending, and add the appropriate subjunctive ending.
• Some common subjunctive endings for -ar verbs are -e, -es, -e, -emos, -éis, -en.
