Grammar - IR Verbs (Group 1)
'I am beginning to feel really sick.' What is the Spanish verb for 'to feel'?

Grammar - IR Verbs (Group 1)

This Spanish Easy Review grammar quiz will challenge you on IR verbs. As you have learned, Spanish has three different types of base verbs. Those three types are ar, er and ir. This means that the verb ends in either ar, er or ir. A base verb is a verb that has the word 'to' before it such as 'to see', 'to drive' or 'to play'. These verbs are not showing any action but let you know what kind of an action will take place.

If you have not already done so, please check out the Spanish Easy Review quizzes titled AR Verbs (Group 1) and ER Verbs (Group 1) as this quiz will be adding to your growing list of verb vocabulary words.

Oddly enough, IR is a verb itself. It means 'to go'. Now let’s look at some 'ir' verbs.

English Spanish Pronounced (Phonetically) As
to open abrir ă-brěr
to applaud aplaudir ă-plow-deer
to tell decir dāy-seer
to sleep dormir door-meer
to hide encubrir ěn-cū-beer

to lie mentir měn-teer
to die morir mŏr-eer
to feel sentir sěn-teer
to serve servir sě-veer
to come venir věn-eer
to dress vestir věs-teer

As many of these verbs may be new vocabulary words for you, take your time in learning them to memory, as well as speaking them out loud using the phonetically pronounced guide to help you say them correctly.
