Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if 'venimos' means 'we come' or 'we have been doing X'?

If 'venimos' is followed immediately by the preposition 'a' or 'de' (e.g., 'venimos a la casa'), it means movement. If it is followed by a verb ending in -ndo (e.g., 'venimos estudiando'), it means 'we have been doing' that action for a while.

Is 'venimos' a regular verb form?

The verb 'venir' is irregular overall (for example, the 'yo' form is 'vengo'). However, the 'nosotros' form, 'venimos,' follows the typical pattern for -ir verbs in the present tense, making it easy to remember.
