Intro to New Material: Key Point TWO
Define an INFINITIVE
INFINITIVOS
Verbs are words that are most often used to name actions. Verbs in English have
different forms depending on who is doing the action or when the action is occurring:
I walk she walks we walked

The most basic form of a verb is called the infinitive. In English, you can spot infinitives
because they usually have the word “to” in front of them:
to swim to read to write

Infinitives in Spanish, however, don’t have a separate word like “to” in front of them.
Spanish infinitives are only one word, and always end in –ar, -er, or –ir.

nadar leer escribir
