A verb has two parts, the stem and the ar/er/ir ending.

Types of stem-changers
There are 3.5 types of stem-changers in Spanish. They are:
E IE (the most common)
O UE (common)
U UE (“jugar” is the ONLY verb that does this)
E I (applies to –ir verbs ONLY)

WHERE in the stem does the change happen?
The stem change will always happen in the first vowel back from the ending. (Most times it’s the only vowel in the stem.)

How are these verbs conjugated?
Stem changers do not change in all forms, just four. Let’s see how this works…

PENSAR (to think / to plan, e

Stem changers are also called “shoe” or “boot” verbs…
The changes all happen inside the form of a shoe or boot!

PRÁCTICA: if a verb is in the nosotros form, rewrite it using a stem changed form, and vice versa.
1. Mis hermanos y yo dormimos hasta las 11.
2. Yo puedo cantar y bailar.
3. La princesa prefiere comer fuera de la casa.
4. Mis amigos y yo pedimos los espaguetis en el restaurante italiano.
5. Los chicos juegan al fútbol en el parque.

Final notes…There’s no way of looking at a verb and knowing that it’s a stem changer. However, the more familiar you are with Spanish, the more you will be able to “feel” a stem changer. Some Spanish 2 students can already do this
If a verb (of 2+ syllables) changes stem (e.g., TENER—to have), then all verbs which contain that verb will also change stem (e.g., MANTENER—to maintain, OBTENER—to get).
