The Verb "Ver" in Spanish and How to Use It
The verb "ver" in Spanish means "to see."
Let's conjugate the verb to match each subject pronoun. You didn't forget your subject pronouns, did you?
Yo = I
tú = you
él= he
ella = she
usted = you (formal)
nosotros(as) = we (masc. and fem.)
vosotros (as) = you all (Spain)
ustedes = you all (Latin American + Spain (formal)
ellos(as) = they
Ok, so for the yo form, it's irregular. Normally we take the verb (ver) and take off the -AR, -ER, or -IR ending and replace it with our verb endings, but for ver, we just take off the -R for the yo ending.
Here are the conjugations for the present tense:
yo veo = I see
tú ves = you see
él/ella/usted ve = he/she/you (formal) see(s)
nosotros vemos = we see
vosotros veis = you all (Spain) see
ustedes/ellos(as) ven you all (L.A. + Spain (formal)/they see
Keep in mind that the "V" in Spanish sounds much more like an English "B" so you would say "bay-oh" instead of "vay-oh". Now I'd like to give you some example sentences so that you can see the conjugated verbs in their own context.
Yo veo las flores del campo. = I see the flowers from the field.
Tú ves un hombre alto. = You see a tall man.
Él ve una película. = He's watching a movie.
Nosotros vemos el desfile. = We watch the parade.
Vosotros veis el coche. = You guys see the car. (Spain)
Ellos ven la luna. = They are looking at the moon.
Hope this helps you if you're learning Spanish!
