Question

1. The infinitive in English is expressed by writing the word noun before a verb. In Spanish the infinitive is expressed by the verb endings ar , er , and ir.
2 In order to say that something doesn’t happen (making a negative sentence) in Spanish, use the word noun before the verb.
3 Use the word ______________________________ to agree with someone who likes something. Use the word ______________________________ to agree with someone who dislikes something.
4 If you do not like either of two choices, use the word ____________________

Answer 1

1. This is true. "Infinitive" simply indicates a verb that hasn't been conjugated. For example, "to walk" is an infinitive verb, while "I walk" is conjugated. To denote the infinitive in English, the word that comes before the verb is "to." On the other hand, the infinitive is indicated in Spanish by the endings, because Spanish verbs are conjugated according to their endings: "Caminar" means to walk (infinitive), but "Yo camino" is I walk. 2. This is true. To negate something in Spanish, you will most often put the word "no" before the verb: "Yo camino" then becomes "Yo no camino" (I don't walk). 3. To agree with someone who likes something, you will use the word "también." To agree with someone who dislikes something, you will use the word "tampoco." The best way to think of these words is también as "me too" and tampoco as "me neither." 4. If you don't want to use either of these words, you can simply say "de acuerdo," which means I agree.
