Description
In this lesson, we will touch upon the [Usted] form of regular [ar] verbs. Remember to conjugate regular [ar] verbs: first drop the -ar and then add one of six present tense endings specific to -ar verbs: -o, -as, -a, -a, -amos, or -an. For present tense, the polite second person [Usted] use "a". Please also note that this is the same ending that is used for [He/She]. Be careful not to confuse them. Finally, note that "Usted" is the polite version of "Tú".
