Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if 'conseguimos' means 'we get' or 'we got'?
Look for context clues! If the sentence uses words like 'ayer' (yesterday), 'la semana pasada' (last week), or refers to a specific finished event, it's the past tense ('we got'). If it uses 'siempre' (always), 'todos los días' (every day), or refers to a general action, it's the present tense ('we get').
Is 'conseguir' a difficult verb to conjugate?
It has a couple of tricky spots, mainly the E to I vowel change in the present tense (Yo consigo, Tú consigues) and the preterite tense (Él consiguió). But the 'nosotros' form ('conseguimos') is easy because it avoids the vowel change in both the present and preterite tenses!
