Yo voy (I go)
Tú vas (You go)

Nosotros/Nosotras vamos (We go)
Vosotros/Vosotras vais (You all go - used in Spain)
Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes van (They/You all go)

35
Q

“Acompañarle” how is it fconjugated and from what root word/verb?

A

conjugated form of the Spanish verb “acompañar” in the infinitive form. However, it’s conjugated to accompany someone in the third person singular, using the indirect object pronoun “le” which refers to “him,” “her,” or “you” (formal).

Here’s how it conjugates in the present tense for different subjects:

Yo acompaño (I accompany)
Tú acompañas (You accompany)
Él/Ella/Usted acompaña (He/She/You (formal) accompany)
Nosotros/Nosotras acompañamos (We accompany)
Vosotros/Vosotras acompañáis (You all accompany - used in Spain)
Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes acompañan (They/You all accompany)

Q

In word acompañarle….why and how is the “le” place at the end of the word

A

“Acompañarle” is a form derived from the verb “acompañar,” which means “to accompany.” Here’s a breakdown of its components and structure:

  1. Root Verb: The root verb is “acompañar.”
  2. Infinitive Form: “Acompañar” is the infinitive form, meaning “to accompany.”
  3. Pronoun Attachment: The “-le” at the end is a pronoun. In Spanish, pronouns can be attached to the end of infinitive verbs, gerunds, and affirmative commands.
    • Le: This is an indirect object pronoun meaning “to him,” “to her,” or “to you” (formal).

So, “acompañarle” means “to accompany him/her/you.”

The reason for the pronoun “le” being at the end of “acompañar” is because in Spanish, when using an infinitive verb, pronouns can be attached to the end of the verb. For example:
- “Voy a acompañarle.” (“I am going to accompany him/her/you.”)

This construction is common in sentences where the verb is in the infinitive form and is often preceded by another verb. The pronoun “le” is used here to indicate the indirect object receiving the action.
