💡 Grammar Points
A Form of the Verb 'Incluir'
'Incluye' is the present tense form used when the person or thing doing the action is 'él' (he), 'ella' (she), 'usted' (you formal), or 'it' (like 'el contrato' or 'la tarifa').
The Y in Conjugation
In the present tense, the 'i' of 'incluir' changes to a 'y' when it’s next to another vowel, except for the 'nosotros' and 'vosotros' forms. This is a common pattern for verbs ending in -uir (like construir or destruir).
❌ Common Pitfalls
Forgetting the 'y' change
Mistake: "El paquete *inclue* la batería."
Correction: El paquete *incluye* la batería. (Remember the 'y' spelling change in this conjugation.)
⭐ Usage Tips
The 'What's In It' Word
Use 'incluye' whenever you need to tell someone what is part of a total package, set, or group. Think of it as the opposite of 'excluye' (excludes).

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 'incluye' a regular verb?
Not completely. While most of its forms follow the standard -ir pattern, the present tense forms (*incluyo, incluyes, incluye, incluyen*) change the 'i' to a 'y'. This is a common spelling change for verbs ending in -uir, but it means you can't conjugate it like a perfectly regular verb.
