  • Resumen gramatical 6-2 (Stem-Changing Verbs): Certain verbs have internal vowel changes when conjugated. This section explains the rules to conjugate stem-changing verbs in the present tense. Example verbs such as querer (to want) and perder (to lose). Some verbs require specific vowel changes in different conjugations e.g., e>ie, o>ue, etc.
  • Additional verbs: The guide lists other common verbs like empezar (to start), contar (to count), sonreir (to smile), entender (to understand), poder (to be able to).
