Frequently Asked Questions
If I am learning Latin American Spanish, do I need to learn 'hacéis'?
It is helpful to recognize 'hacéis' if you read Spanish literature or watch Spanish media, but you will almost never need to use it in conversation. You should use 'hacen' instead.
Why is 'hacer' so irregular?
'Hacer' is irregular because it is one of the oldest and most frequently used verbs in the language. Very common verbs tend to resist simple spelling rules over time, leading to unique forms like 'hago' (I do) and 'haré' (I will do).
