What about stem-changing “boot” verbs in the present progressive tense? Verbs like Empezar (e:ie) and Volver (o:ue) that are “boot” verbs in the present tense DO NOT stem-change in the present progressive tense! The only stem-changing verbs in the present progressive tense are the “-IR” boot verbs that we have in the present tense! BUT, the stem-change in the present progressive tense can only be 1:1! Examples: Dormir (o:ue) = durmiendo Preferir (e:ie) = prefiriendo Conseguir (e:i) = consiguiendo
Let’s look at the verb Dormir in both tenses! Present tense: Present Progressive Tense: Dormir (o:ue) Step 1: Think! Is it an “-IR” boot verb in the present tense? (If no, then it is NOT a boot verb in the present progressive tense!) Step 2: If yes, remember that the stem-change can only be 1:1 in the present progressive tense! Dormir (o:ue) Duermo Duermes Duerme Dormimos Duermen Estoy durmiendo Estás durmiendo Está durmiendo Estamos durmiendo Están durmiendo
Let’s look at the verb Empezar in both tenses! Present tense: Present Progressive Tense: Empezar (e:ie) Step 1: Think! Is it an “-IR” boot verb in the present tense? (If no, then it is NOT a boot verb in the present progressive tense!) Empiezo Empiezas Empieza Empezamos Empiezan Estoy empezando Estás empezando Está empezando Estamos empezando Están empezando

To review conjugating in the past tense: 1) We have regular verbs (Examples: Abrir, Hablar, Comer) *What are your endings for –AR/-ER/-IR verbs in the preterite tense? YOU HAVE TO MEMORIZE YOUR PRETERITE TENSE ENDINGS! 2) We have stem-changing “slipper” verbs in the past tense– Only –IR verbs can stem-change in the past tense. The stem-change will only happen inside of the slipper and it will be a 1 to 1 change (e:i), (o:u)! Examples: Preferir, Servir 3) We have –car/-gar/-zar verbs. These verbs have a spelling change, but ONLY in the Yo form! Examples: Empezar (Yo empecé), Pagar (Yo pagué), Practicar (Yo practiqué). 4) You have the irregular verbs SER & IR.
