By now, we have seen many verbs, like
gostar,
ser,
estar and
ter. Up until now, we have looked at the various conjugations of these verbs individually. However, for the vast majority of Portuguese verbs, there are simple rules to follow in order to get the various conjugations for a verb. In Portuguese, there are three main types of verbs: those that end with
-ar, those that end in
er and
ir. Of these, some are
irregular - that means the rules don't apply. However, most of them are
regular. Now we'll have a look at the most commmon types of verbs, those that end in
-ar.
