In the examples we have used verbs like: escribir, vivir, decidir etc.
Note: When I say regular I mean regular in the present.
There are 2 minor deviations:
The verb escribir has an irregular participle (escrito) and the participle of abrir is (abierto)
The conjugation of ir verbs
Escribo - I write
Escribes - You write (familiar)
Usted Escribe You write (formal)
Escribe - He she it, writes
Escribimos - We write
Escribís - You write - (familiar)
Ustedes escriben - You write - (formal)
Escriben - They write
15% of Spanish verbs are IR verbs.
In the examples I have included some Spanish passives.
