💡 Grammar Points
The 'te' at the end
The 'te' is a little tag that points the action back to you. It's like saying 'move yourself up'.
Why the accent mark?
When we attach 'te' to the word 'sube', we add a written accent (ú) to make sure the emphasis stays on the first part of the word.
❌ Common Pitfalls
Missing the accent
Mistake: "subete"
Correction: súbete

It is informal. It is used with people you know well (the 'tú' form).
