Conditional & Irregulars
Conditional Tense Irregulars• The conditional is often used to express
probability, possibility, and wonder and is usually understood to be would, could, must have or probably. Here is the suffix you would add onto –ar, -er, and –ir verbs:
• There are 12 irregular verbs in the conditional tense.
• They are: caber (cabr-), poner (pondr-), decir (dira-) haber (habr-), salir (saldr-), hacer (har-), poder (podr-), tener (tendr-), querer (querr-), valer (valdr-), saber (sabr-), and venir (vendr-).

• The perfect tense is compound, formed with the verb haber and the past participle of another verb.– -ar verbs go to –ado; -er/-ir verbs go to –ido
• The action was completed recently.• The perfect tense is true in both the past and the
present.

Perfect Tense Irregulars
• The past perfect tense is formed by using the imperfect tense of the verb haber with the past participle.
• The past perfect tense is used when you had or have done something.
• Like the perfect tense, you drop the –ar and -er/-ir and add –ado and –ido.
Past Perfect Tense

subjunctive.– Present subjunctive + past participle

• Irregulars: di, haz, ve, pon, sal, sé, ten, ven• DOP/IOP:
– DOPs must be attached to the end of the affrimative command, and they must be placed in front of the command if it’s a negative command. • Example: Cómpralas, No las compres
– IOPs must be placed in front of DOPs when attached to the affirmative command and when it’s a negative command.• Example: Compramelo, No me lo compres
