How would you conjugate the verb "decir" which means to say, to the "yo" form? Would it be digo? Or dico? Please help!
Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. The verb "decir" is irregular in the "yo" form of the Present Indicative Tense: digo, dices, dice, decimos, decís, dicen. Note that has a vowel change e---> i in all the forms EXCEPT the nosotros/nosotras and vosotros/vosotras forms. If you have a good textbook, look at the Appendix (in the back of the book) where irregular (as well as regular) verbs should be conjugated for you.
To conjugate the verb "decir" in the "yo" form, you would use the conjugation "digo." The correct conjugation is not "dico."
To conjugate "decir" in the present tense, you would use the following forms:
- Yo digo (I say)
- Tú dices (you say)
- Él/ella/usted dice (he/she/you [formal] say)
- Nosotros/nosotras decimos (we say)
- Vosotros/vosotras decís (you all say)
- Ellos/ellas/ustedes dicen (they/you all say)
It's important to note that "decir" is an irregular verb, so the conjugations don't follow the regular patterns. The vowel "e" changes to "i" in all forms except the nosotros/nosotras and vosotros/vosotras forms.
If you're unsure about the conjugation of a verb, it's always a good idea to consult a reliable resource like a grammar textbook or online conjugation tool.
