Verbs in the First Person

Spanish Classes / by admin / November 13, 2021

Verbs in the first person are those that they are conjugated for the first person grammar; This category tells us who the participants are within the communicative act.

In particular, the first person is one in which the issuer is the same subject of the action. Who performs the action of the verb is the issuer of the sentence or the statement. For example:

"I bought some chocolates": the verb I bought is in the first person since the same issuer is the one who performs the action of
"We will be good friends": the verb we will be is in the first person, the issuer is the one who performs the action (to be); in this case, the issuer is a collective subject (U.S).

As can be seen in the examples, the grammatical person is expressed in the form of the verb; this can modify its form to express different people: I bought, bought, we bought, bought, bought... This is called verbal flexion: the verb flexes, changes its form, to imply different meanings (in addition to the person, it indicates the mode, the time and the number). When the verb is flexed, what changes is the ending placed after the stem.
