Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the pronoun 'nos' attached to the end of the verb 'ver'?
In Spanish, when a verb is in the infinitive form ('ver'), the command form, or the gerund ('viendo'), any attached pronouns (like 'nos', 'te', 'se') must be physically attached to the end of that verb, forming a single word like 'vernos' or 'viéndonos'.
Can I use 'nos' before the verb instead of 'vernos'?
Yes, if there is another conjugated verb before the infinitive. For example, 'Debemos vernos' (We must meet) is interchangeable with 'Nos debemos ver.' If 'ver' is the only verb, 'vernos' is used, or the pronoun must be placed before the conjugated form of 'ver' (nos vemos).
