This Spanish Easy Review grammar quiz takes a further look at conjugating AR verbs in the present tense. Because learning how Spanish verbs are conjugated can take some time to really understand and become comfortable with, this quiz will be a sister quiz to the Spanish Easy Review quiz titled Conjugating AR Verbs - Present Tense (1). Remember that conjugating a verb means that you break the verb down in parts to form the correct verb spelling that goes along with the correct pronoun (I, you, he, she, we, they).
As we will once again only deal with the present tense conjugation of 'ar' verbs, the endings are - o, as, a, amos, áis, an - and the Spanish pronouns are - yo, tú, usted, él, ella, nosotros, nosotras, vosotros, vosotras, ustedes, ellos and ellas.
Let’s do one practice conjugation of a verb that was used in the AR Verbs - Present Tense (1) quiz. We will conjugate estudiar (to study) as follows: (Remember to drop the 'ar' before adding the appropriate ending.)

tú | estudias | you study (familiar) |
usted | estudia | you study (formal) |
él | estudia | he studies |
