Vocabulario – Las Vacaciones (Holiday Vocabulary)

Below is the verb ‘ir’ (to go), this is a key verb as we also use it to form a future tense.  Try to memorise it to the tune of Baa Baa Black Sheep until it is imprinted on your brain.  Remember we always learn verbs in the same order:

yo – I      tu – you       el – he      ella – she     nosotros – we      vosotros – you (pl)      ellos / ellas – they (m/f)

Comparativos – Comparatives

A comparative adjective is used when we want to compare two things.  In English we either add ‘-er’ to the adjective or use ‘more / less ….. than …‘ : 

e.g.  tall = taller,   beautiful = more beautiful

In Spanish the ‘-er’ form does not exist and we only use the ‘more / less …… than …….‘ way of comparing things.  Look at the examples below:
