Grammar - Conjugating - IR Verbs in the Future Tense (Part 3)

This Spanish Difficult Review quiz continues your journey with conjugating IR verbs in the future tense. It is the last of this three part series. At this point in your studies you have learned that in the future tense, the base form of each verb is used and then the future tense verb endings are added on to that base. You also learned that in the future tense, the AR, ER and verbs all have the same verb endings, i.e., é, ás, á, emos, éis, án. The base form rule holds true to for all regular verbs in the future tense but does not hold true for the verbs that are irregular in the future tense.

The most difficult part when it comes to irregular verbs is that each of those verbs will have to be memorized on their own basis as there are no rules that governs why they become irregular verbs. However, in order to help you to start to become familiar with those irregular verbs, this quiz will address some of the IR irregular verbs to help you start your brain going down the path of memorization. Again, we will only introduce you to a few new IR verbs and test you on being able to quickly find a future tense verb with its appropriate pronoun form.
