Part A Grammar Practice

Infinitivo (infinitive): This is what we call a verb that does not have a subject (person or thing) doing
the action. It means to do something.
The infinitive also helps us define the verb. Whenever we change (conjugate) a verb according to
who does the action, usually only the ending changes from the r ending.

Match the Spanish infinitive to the correct English meaning:

1.H

dibujar

A.

(to) say

2.G

Comer

B.

(to) cry

3.L

Ver

C.

(to) listen

4.E

Dejar

D.

(to) hide

5.B

Llorar

E.

(to) leave something

6.N

Salir

F.

(to) offer

7.A

Decir

G.

(to) eat

8.K

Abrir

H.

(to) draw

9.J

Venir

I.

(to) laugh

10.C

Escuchar

J.

(to) come (in)

11.D

Esconder

K.

(to) open

12.F

Ofrecer

L.

(to) see

13.I

Reirse

M.

(to) lift or raise

14.O

Esperar

N.

(to) leave

15.M

Levantar

O.

(to) wait

When two verbs are together, the first one is conjugated or in a form that matches the subject
(whats doing the action). The second is usually an infinitive. Translate these examples:
16.

Los estudiantes tienen que escuchar cuando el profesor les gritan.

The students have to listen when the teacher yells at them.

17.

No prefiero venir a la escuela los sbados.

I dont prefer to come to school on Saturdays.

the correct English translations:
