G- gu largo(a)= larguÍsimo(a)
Z- c feliz= felicÍsimo(a)
Page 10: Verbs like gustar
When you talk about things that other people like, change
the form of gustar to match the singular or plural nouns for
those things
Singular and plural
Things you like…
Me gusta .. nos gusta…
Te gusta … os gusta…
Le gusta … les gusta…
Me gusta la
idea
Te gusta la

Le gusta la
idea
Nos gusta la
idea
Os gusta la
idea
Les gusta la
idea
Me gustan las
personas
Te gustan las
personas
Le gustan las
personas
Nos gustan las
personas
Os gustan las
personas
Les gustan las
personas
The form of gustar
Matches the noun
Not the speaker
Me gustan las
Enchiladas
Me gusta mucho tu idea
Para el concurso
Page 11: Affirmative and
Negative Words When you talk about an indefinite or negative situation,
you use an affirmative or negative word
Affirmative words
Algo- something
AlguÍen- someone
Algún/alguno(a)- some
Siempre- always
También- also
Negative words
Nada- nothing
Nadie- no one
Ningún/ninguno(a)- none
Nunca- never
Tampoco- neither, either
Example:
Las chicas quieren
Algún postre, pero
Carlos no quiere ningún
postre
Alguno(a) and Ninguno(a) must match
the gender of the noun they replace or
modify. Alguno and ninguno have
different forms when used before
masculine singular nouns
If a verb is preceded by no, words that follow must be negative
Double negative is REQUIRED when no precedes the verb
No quiero nada
If a negative word such a nunca or nadie
Comes before the verb, a second negative
Is not needed.
Ex: Las chicas nunca comen en casa
Page 12: Pero vs. Sino
both pero and sino are coordinating
conjunctions. As such, both pero and sino
can be used to contrast two words,
sentences or phrases.
Pero Sino
- Used to indicate a contrast
- Me gustaría salir, pero no
puedo.
- Used when two things are
true, when the sentence
before the conjunction is
negative, and when the part
after the conjugation directly
contradicts what is negated
in the first part
- Me gustaría salir, pero no
puedo.
Page 13: DOP, IOP, SE
me me me
te te you (familiar)
lo, la lehim, her, it,
you (formal)
nos nos us
os osyou-all
(familiar)
los, las lesthem, you-all
(formal)
When both pronouns begin with the
letter "l" change the first pronoun to
"se."
Example: Ella te
la vende.
She sells it to you.
IO pronoun: te
DO pronoun: la
le lo = se lo
le la = se la
le los = se los
le las = se las
les lo = se lo
les la = se la
les los = se los
les las = se las
Page 14: Reflexive Verbs Reflexives describe people doing things for themselves
Reflexive pronouns are used with reflexive verbs to
indicate that the subject of the sentence receives the
action of the verb
Example: lavarse (to wash oneself)
Me lavo Te laves Se lava
Nos lavamos Os laváis Se lavan
Many verbs can be used with or without reflexive pronouns when there is
No reflexive pronoun, the person doing the action does not receive the
Action
Ex: Pepa se lava----- Pepa lava el carro
Page 15: Tú commands:
affirmative, negative, regular
Affirmative Tú
Commands
Irregular Tú
Commands
Negative Tú
Commands

someone instructions
or commands.

ends like a 3rd house
form.
- Caminar – Ícamina!
- Comer – Ícome!
- Abrir- Íabrir!
- Primero haz lo quehaceres
- When you use a pronoun with an affirmativecommand, the pronoun attaches to the command
- İPon te otra camisa!- When using an object
pronoun attach the pronoun to the end of the command
- Used when you tell someone what not to do.
- Formed by taking you form of the present tense, dropping the o, and adding the appropriate ending
- Ex: hablar- hablo- İnohables!
- Object pronoundsprecede the verbs in negatibe commands
