Greetings steemains!
Here is a useful information for those who want to learn spanish.

Spanish includes verbs in infinitive, they have three different ways to finish and according to their ending, then they are conjugated in a specific form. Infinitive verbs finish with "ar" like the verb "hablar" (to talk/speak); "er" like the verb "leer"(to read), and finally "ir" like the verb "escribir" (to write).

Let's see how we can conjugate the verb "hablar" (to talk/speak) in simple present tense. Before, we need to learn something important: the personal pronouns. As in other languages, the verbs are conjugated depending on the personal pronoun.

Personal pronouns:
I - Yo.
You - Tu.
He - El
She - Ella.
We - Nosotros / Nosotras.
You - Ustedes.
They - Ellos / Ellas.

As you can see, "we" has two translations: "nosotros" and "nosotras", just like "they" does as well.

Here is the difference: "Nosotros" has two cases to be applied.

1)Masculine (men only):
Example: Nosotros (Daniel and Ronald) aprendemos español en Steemit.
We (Daniel and Ronald) learn spanish on Steemit.

2)Masculine + Feminine:
Example: Nosotros (Daniel and Karla) somos políglotas.
We (Daniel and Karla) are polyglots.

"Nosotras" is only feminine.

The same rule works for "they". When we use "ellos" we mean a group of men only or a group of women + men but "ellas" is used for feminine only.

Now we are ready to learn how to conjugate the verb "hablar". As i said before, this verb finishes with "ar", to conjugate this verb, it is necessary to replace such ending by a different one which depends on the personal pronouns:

Infinitive: Hablar (to talk / speak).

Conjugated:
I talk/speak = Yo hablo. Replacing "ar" by "o"
You talk/speak = Tu hablas. Replacing "ar" by "as"
He - she talks/speaks = El - Ella habla. Replacing "ar" by "a"
We talk /speak = Nosotros - Nosotras hablamos. Replacing "ar" by "amos"
You talk/speak = Ustedes hablan. Replacing "ar" by "an"
They talk/speak = Ellos - Ellas hablan. Replacing "ar" by "an"

I hope to be helpful for those who would like to learn spanish and the people who love learning other languages.
Here you will have a helping hand in case of having some doubt, just write it down and let's learn together!
