How do you form the present tense of regular verbs?

To form this you begin with the infinitive of the verb eg. hablar (to speak), comer (to eat), vivir (to live). You then take off the -ar, -er, or -ir and add the following endings for the correct person: -ar verbs yo: -o; tu: -as; el/ella: -a; nosotros: -amos; vosotros: -áis; ellos/ellas: -an -er verbs yo: -o; tu: -es; el/ella: -e; nosotros: -emos; vosotros: -éis; ellos/ellas: -en -ir verbs yo: -o; tu: -es; el/ella: -e; nosotros: -imos; vosotros: -ís; ellos/ellas: -en
