Episode 40: An Irregular Verb - Querer, To Want

Yo quiero, Tú quieres, Usted/él/ella quiere, Nosotros/nosotras queremos, Vosotros/vosotras queréis, Ustedes/ellos/ellas quieren, Note that some of the conjugations show a vowel change in the stem, from E to EI. This is called a stem-changing verb, and there are many like this. However they do follow a pattern, and are easy to get used to: The ones that change are those of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd persons singular, and the 3rd person plural. The 1st and 2nd persons plural remain untouched, and this is an important pattern to know for future verb conjugations!
