Answer:
The answer to the first question is Arsenio rompe los platos, which translates to "Arsenio breaks the plates." Please read the entire explanation below.
Explanation:
These are all present tense sentences, and I answered a similar question on here explaining how to conjugate -ar, -er, and -ir verbs in spanish (I'll try to copy the relevant parts below.) In number 1, imagine you are talking to someone else about Arsenio. You can recognize that the él/ella/usted tense is being used when a person's name is used to begin a sentence, followed by a description of what they are doing (another way to think about this is whether you can replace the name in the sentence with "he" or "she" and have it still make sense. So in number 1, you could say "He breaks the plates." In number 2, you could say, "He eats many legumes.")
The "yo" form of a verb ends in an "-o". For example, "yo canto", meaning "I sing". You drop the "verb ending", which is either:
- "-ar", as in "cantar" (to sing), "buscar" (to look/search for), or "hablar" (to talk)
- "-er", as in "comer" (to eat), "correr" (to run), or "vender" (to sell)
- "-ir", as in "escribir" (to write), "vivir" (to live), or "recibir" (to receive).
The rest follow suit: the "tú" ending of a verb is either "-as" for "-ar" verbs, but ends in "-es" for BOTH "-er" and "-ir" verbs. (This is important to remember.) Examples are:
- "tú vives", "tú escribes"
"Èl/ella/usted" forms of a verb all end in "-a" for "-ar" verbs, and "-e" for "-er" and "-ir" verbs. Examples are:
- "él/ella/usted canta", "él/ella/usted busca"
- "él/ella/usted come", "él/ella/usted corre"
- "él/ella/usted vive", "él/ella/usted escribe"
"Nosotros" forms of a verb end in "-amos" for "-ar verbs", "-emos" for "-er" verbs, and "-imos" for "-ir" verbs. In this tense, each type of verb has its own ending. Examples are:
- "nosotros cantamos", "nosotros buscamos"
- "nosotros comemos", "nosotros corremos"
- "nosotros vivimos", "nosotros escribimos"
<u>Please tell me if this explanation makes sense, and if it doesn't tell me and I'll try to explain it differently. Also, I can post the rest of the "guide" to conjugation I made, if you want.</u>
