Part V Conjugating Future Conditional Tenses in Spanish

Part V Conjugating Future Conditional Tenses in Spanish Sign up successful By now, you have come a long way. Remember, this learning is best taught chronologically, so  before you tackle this post you should review  the previous posts: How to conjugate basic Spanish verbs  (present tense) How to conjugate stem-changing verbs in present tense How to conjugate Spanish verbs in past tense How to conjugate the imperfect tense This particular post is about the future tense and the conditional tense  in Spanish. The conditional tense describes what you would like to do given certain conditions, and the future tense describes events that will happen in the future. For example, the following sentences would use the conditional tense: I would go to the game. (Iría al partido) They would see the movie. (Verían la película) Alternately, these sentences would use the future tense: I will go to the game. (Iré al partido) They will see the movie. (Verán la película) Identical to others tenses, the Spanish conditional and future tenses break down verbs into five different ending variants. By now you have probably mastered how it works. All we need to do now is learn another new formula. The conditional tense is strikingly  similar to the imperfect. The key difference is that in the conditional tense, we don’t shave off the -ar, -ir, or -er verb ending first    but the conjugation ending is the same! As we have used the example of the verb mirar (to watch) in the previous articles, lets continue with that. How to Conjugate  -ar Verbs in Conditional Tense DON’T shave off the ending -ar; leave it alone! If you are referring to ‘yo’ or ‘I,’ add the ending ‘ía’ to end the infinitive verb, forming miraría. If you are referring to ‘tú’ or ‘you,’ add the ending ‘ía,’ to form mirarías. If you are referring to ‘él’ or ‘ella” or ‘he or she,’ use the ending ‘ía’ to form miraría*. *Yes this is the same as the ‘yo’ form, just like the imperfect! If you are referring to ‘nosotros’ or ‘we,’ use the ending ‘íamos’ to form miraríamos. If you are referring to ‘ellos’ or ‘they,’ use the ending ‘ían,’ to form mirarían. What about -er verbs? Let’s use comer (to eat) as an example again: How to  Conjugate  -er Verbs in Conditional Tense DON’T shave off the ending  -er Same as -ar  verbs to form comería. Same as -ar  verbs to form comerías. -If you are referring to ‘él’ or ‘ella” or ‘he or she,’ same as -ar  verbs to form comería*. *Yes this is the same as the ‘yo’ form as well! -If you are referring to ‘nosotros’ or ‘we,’ Same as -ar verbs to form comeríamos. -If you are referring to ‘ellos’ or ‘they,’ same as -ar verbs to form comerían. How to Conjugate  -ir Verbs in Conditional Tense Same rules as with -ar and -er verbs See the following charts of key conditional tense verb conjugations: Mirar (to watch): Yo miraría Tú mirarías Él/Ella/Usted miraría Nosotros miraríamos Ellas/Ellos/Ustedes mirarían Comer (to eat): Yo comería Tú comerías Él/Ella/Usted comería Nosotros comeríamos Ellas/Ellos/Ustedes comerían Vivir (to live): Yo viviría Tú vivirías Él/Ella/Usted viviría Nosotros viviríamos Ellas/Ellos/Ustedes vivirían Ready for some practice? Conjugate the following conditional tense Spanish words: Moving on, the future tense does have many irregulars but in this post I just wanted to you get the basic idea. The future tense is similar to the conditional in that you add the ending to the given verb in its infinitive form. Let’s continue with mirar: How to Conjugate -ar  Verbs in the Future Tense DON’T shave off the ending -ar; leave it alone! If you are referring to ‘yo’ or ‘I,’ add the ending ‘é’ to end the infinitive verb, forming miraré. If you are referring to ‘tú’ or ‘you,’ add the ending ‘ás,’ to form mirarás. If you are referring to ‘él’ or ‘ella” or ‘he or she,’ use the ending ‘á’ to form mirará. If you are referring to ‘nosotros’ or ‘we,’ use the ending ‘emos’ to form miraremos. If you are referring to ‘ellos’ or ‘they,’ use the ending ‘án,’ to form mirarán. What about ER verbs? Let’s use comer (to eat), for example: How to Conjugate -er  Verbs in the Future Tense DON’T shave off the ending -er -Same as -ar verbs to form comeré. -Same as -ar verbs to form comerás. -If you are referring to ‘él’ or ‘ella” or ‘he or she,’ same as -ar verbs to form comerá. -If you are referring to ‘nosotros’ or ‘we,’ same as -ar verbs to form comeremos. -If you are referring to ‘ellos’ or ‘they,’ same as -ar verbs to form comerán. How to Conjugate -ir  Verbs in the Future Tense Same rules as with -ar  and -er  verbs See the following examples of key Future verb conjugations: Mirar: Yo miraré Tú mirarás Él/Ella/Usted mirará Nosotros miraremos Ellas/Ellos/Ustedes mirarán Comer: Yo comeré Tú comerás Él/Ella/Usted comerá Nosotros comeremos Ellas/Ellos/Ustedes comerán Vivir: Yo viviré Tú vivirás Él/Ella/Usted vivirá Nosotros viviremos Ellas/Ellos/Ustedes vivirán Ready for some practice? Conjugate the following in the future tense: The good news is that the future and conditional tenses have the same irregulars! While I won’t go into a lot detail here about the irregulars, here’s some common ones in which their stem changes: Poner ? Pondr forming Pondré instead of Poneré in its future ‘yo’ form Salir ? Saldr forming Saldré instead of Saliré in its future ‘yo’ form Need more help? Contact your Spanish tutor with more questions about irregular conditional and future tense conjugations!

How Much Do You Know About How Your Voice Works

How Much Do You Know About How Your Voice Works Suzy S. Here on the TakeLessons  Blog, we talk a lot about singing tips and tricks for making your voice shine. And as youre learning how to sing especially if youre working with a voice teacher youve probably already learned how things like posture and breathing can affect your  voice. But how much do you actually know about how your instrument works?  Understanding how your voice works is a big key to singing well, yet many vocalists never take the time to study it. We recently connected with Elissa  over at Voice Body Connection, who has been working on an online course designed to help you learn just that. Still not convinced? Heres how Elissa explains it: We start using our voice mere moments after we’re born. But here’s the thing… no one sits us down and hands us an instruction manual. There’s no explanation about how we should make sound, we just do it! A couple years from now we’ll start learning speech and language, and all that will include much more explanation. However it’s likely going to be years before we start any sort of vocal or singing lessons which will draw our attention to the quality of our sound (if ever, of course!). By that time we’ll have some pretty well engrained patterns and habits. So here’s the problem with never having learned how our voice works: When something goes wrong with it, we don’t know how to fix it. If no one taught us how we produce sound in the first place, it’s very difficult to troubleshoot when we’re not able to make the sounds we want. We’ve got to understand what’s going on. We think of our voice as something intangible. In fact we often use the word “voice” metaphorically. That way of thinking is lovely, but our voice is also something very concrete. It comes out of our body, and there are significant muscles and cartilage and bones and organs that contribute to our ability to make sound. It’s valuable to know what all of these are, which is why we go over them in our Spotlight on Anatomy blogs and in Vibrant Voice Technique training. Think about it this way: if you’re a real car person, you’ve gotta learn what’s under the hood. It would be silly to grab a wrench and start messing around if you’ve done no research about how the car is put together…you might mess something up! By a similar token, we all know it’s foolish to start IKEA furniture together without following the (inscrutable) instructions. It’s useful to spend the time understanding how things work. After all, how we understand a thing informs how we use it. Let’s repeat that, because it’s the big thesis: How we understand a thing informs how we use it. So, how does the voice work? OK, so how much do you know? Do you  want to learn more about how the voice works? You can learn more about Elissas course here and if you register before December 19th, you can even get a discount on the price. Curious in the meantime? Here are some vocal health resources we like: 15 Amazing Facts You Never Knew About Your Voice [Infographic] Vocal Health Articles via Boston Singers Resource You and Your Voice via Lions Voice Clinic The National Center for Voice Speech Readers, whats the most surprising thing youve learned about your voice?

They’re not for me.”How many times has a member of your family said something like this when talking about their computer literacy?Concerns about technology and digital devices are very common amongst both the elderly and the young.   The latter are more likely to be ashamed by a lack of basic computer skills since their whole generation seems to be masters of it. It's very rare that a 20-something would be a complete beginner when it comes to using a personal computer.Fortunately, Superprof is here to help you learn everything you need about computer basics and get over your fear of them. Say goodbye to your digital concerns and start making fast and steady progress with computers by taking IT courses.You won’t become an adept computer programmer after just one day of computer classes but you should feel more comfortable with computers by the time you’ve finished reading this article.If you're new to computer technology, things like knowing how to send and receive emails (electronic mail), adding attachments, mastering your web browser, safely using the internet, keeping your accounts safe from hackers, choosing secure passwords, and adding a link to a document probably seem impossible.There are so many aspects of digital literacy that probably weren’t even part of the curriculum if you’re over a certain age.  However, computing training is now accessible to everyone! Whether it’s evening tutorials, free training, computer courses for the elderly, or in-home private IT tutors, there are now plen ty of different ways to get to grips with the digital world.

Words like framework, MOOC, implementation, operating system, graphic interface, jQuery, spyware, UML, Java, MySQL, C, cloud computing, and e-learning may as well be written in hieroglyphics if you’ve never worked in IT or attended a computer class.Don’t worry if you didn’t know any of those fundamental terms, you’ll soon know what all of them mean. If you work hard enough at it, you might one day be teaching others what they mean!While most of the younger generation learn a variety of different computing terms from a young age (especially given that a lot of the concepts are now part of the national curriculum), others may have to find different ways to work out what they all mean.This brief article will introduce you to concepts such as how you browse the web with ease, install a keyboard, search for things online, use word processing software, clean your PC, a few keyboard shortcuts, and the best applications and programmes to use for programming in languages such as Python.It’s important that you teach yourself. Using a desktop computer or laptop on a daily basis is a good way to learn a few basic skills and speed up your typing.The first step to using computers is overcoming the fear to use them. (Source: startupstockphotos.com)You’ll also need to familiarise yourself with abstraction as you’ll be doing it a lot with code. Once you’ve got over your apprehensions, y ou’ll start to enjoy learning more about computing and putting your new skills to the test.As you teach yourself more about computing, you’ll come across more and more operating systems like GNU/Linux, OS X, Bios, Windows, etc.  You’ll also learn more about different developer tools as well. It’s important that you experiment with the user interface on your computer in order to familiarise yourself with all the ins and outs of it. Just try not to fall into the trap of getting really geeky about it.When teaching yourself, make sure you step outside of your comfort zone by going from one programme to another: start with programmes like Microsoft PowerPoint (for making a presentation), Word (for documents),  or Visual Studio (to help you learn computer programming).The best thing to do is go above and beyond a basic beginners’ IT course. In-home IT tuition should be backed up with practising programming and coding. You can take online computer courses or look for places that offer computer classes in the evenings.Having a rounded knowledge of programming languages and techniques might make you the next Mark Zuckerberg. If there’s one thing we’ve learnt this century, it’s that a good computer engineer is the key to success. IT development and programming, when done right, can earn you an absolute fortune.With this in mind, you should consider boosting your maths knowledge with quality private tutors who are familiar with IT and maths. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you’ll have to be a Fields Medal holder.With a good understanding of maths, computer science, algorithms, mathematics, and algebra, you should be able to start learning how to code and get to grips with web development and software engineering. Then you can move improving your computer knowledge and study things like HTML5, XHTML, C, Visual Basic, PHP, Ocaml, Python, COBOL, Perl, and Java.There are also jobs in IT, like computer repair technician, which are becoming more and more important. At the right firm with the right certification, you can make an absolute fortune repairing and maintaining an IT system and you could even give private IT tutorials on the side to boost your income if you wanted.1. Understand IT SystemsBefore you do anything, you’ll need to know what an IT system is:How does a computer work? What’s inside one?How do you turn it on or off?What peripherals can you connect to it and what type of connection do they use (USB, Firewire, HDMI, etc.)?How do you set up a printer?How can you connect to a WiFi network?You’ll need to start with the foundations before moving onto more complicated things. If you want to learn more about how computers work, you should learn how to fix:Screens or monitorsThe system unit which houses the processor (this is sometimes integrated into the models, especially when it comes Apple products. These are famous for being notoriously difficult to change faulty components).Wireless or wired keyboard and miceComp uter hardware and devices like modems, printers, scanners, graphics tablets, hard drives, USB keys, and speakers which are either connected to the system unit internally or externally by USB (or other) ports.Novices might be scared of venturing inside their computer. (Source: jeshoots.com)Even if you’re starting from scratch, you can read tutorials on the internet and guides for beginners that will explain the basic components of a computer and explain basic computer jargon. There are plenty of lessons online worth taking a look at!2. Browsing the InternetYou can’t start thinking about becoming a web designer or programming or coding with HTML if you can’t effortlessly browse the internet and have to call your technically-minded friend every couple of days to help you!Find some coding courses near you here.Firstly, to connect to the Internet, you need an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in order to give you access to the World Wide Web (which is where the www. in web addresses comes from). There are plenty of different ISPs in the country offering access to the internet (often combined with phone and television packages) which are often between £20 and £50 per month. “Unlimited” is the buzzword for providers at the moment whether they’re providing ADSL, VDSL, or fibre optic internet connections. There are plenty of options when it comes to choosing the right connection for you.While we’re not going to go through every single offer available, you should know that:contract length is one of the deciding factors when it comes to price. In some cases, the offer you get initially is only for the first year and then they hike up the price of your connection.the prices depend on the speed of the internet connection you’re getting (this is normally quoted in terms of download speeds). However, where you live can also affect this. For example, rural speeds are often lower than those in big cities.if you happen to live in very remote areas or in the coun tryside, you can even opt for satellite internet.there are deals for those who get their internet with their mobile phone tariffs and providers.You should install a web browser. Some of the most popular include:Internet Explorer (now replaced by Edge)OperaGoogle ChromeMac users (those with Apple products) often use Safari, Apple’s own web browser, which is becoming increasingly popular.If you want to know more about the different types of browsers available, there are plenty of articles online comparing the different ones.3. Using Word ProcessorsLearning to use the cornerstone of office suites will probably be your first foray into IT. However, you needn’t attend specialised IT classes in order to learn the basics of Microsoft Word.  There are plenty of free computer tutorials available online. A resourceful learner will probably be able to master all of the different functions.Whether you’re taking the minutes of a meeting, updating your CV, putting together a shopping list, or just writing out emails, you’ll need to be familiar with the functions of word processing software (like Word) or design software (such as QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign).If you don’t feel like spending a fortune on software, there are office suites you don't have to pay for. These options tend to get better and better as they’re updated. The same goes for anti-malware software.Once you’ve installed your word processor, why not look for private IT tutorials for beginners on Superprof? If you’re shrewd, you could always offer something other than money in exchange for a tutorial. For example, why not invite your tech-savvy friend out for a few drinks as a way to say thank you for them helping you with getting to grips with word processing!Once you've got a word processing programme, you'll be able to make documents much more quickly than you can with hand. (Source: pixabay.com)If you want to get in touch with other tutors, you should think about getting an email address (Gmail is one of the best providers on the market and they offer 15GB of storage) and installing an email client such as Outlook, Thunderbird, or Apple Mail (if you’re using a Mac).There are also email clients available on the web. This also means that smartphone users can check their emails easily. There are also plenty of websites explaining how to set up your email client as well as how to browse the internet from your mobile.4. Saving Your DataSo you’ve finally created your first Excel documents to get your accounts in order. Great!  Imagine if you woke up the next day and found that your documents, holiday photos, PowerPoint presentations, and your programmes were all gone! It can happen...If you have data worth saving, you need to make sure that it's securely saved. (Source: pixabay.com)You don’t need to learn how to programme in order to back up your documents.There are two main ways to back up your documents and data:Online: you can save your data to a secure server (o ften referred to as “the cloud”). Web hosts often do this for their customers’ websites.On an external device: you can save your data to an external hard drive or USB key. You should ideally do this once a week or, at the very least, once a month.Backing up regularly is a good practice and you should often go through both your internal hard drive and your backups. The two techniques as described before can be used in tandem to ensure that your data is safe and sound. There’s nothing wrong with storing your backups on two different external hard drive if the data’s really important.There are a number of cloud storage solutions available for free where you’ll get a couple of gigabytes (you can upgrade and pay for more storage).

This is one of the quickest and easiest ways to learn important IT skills such as how the command line works.There are plenty of different tutors available with a variety of different backgrounds, qualifications, and experience.6. Carry Out Basic IT MaintenanceIf you follow the free tutorials on the web or just do a quick search for IT maintenance, you’ll find a plethora of different ways to keep your system running smoothly such as:cleaning screens and keyboardsemptying your browser’s cachedeleting temporary filesformatting a USB drivedusting the inside of your computeror properly and cleanly uninstalling a programmeYou’ll be surprised at how many of these tasks you can easily do yourself.7. How do You Code or Programme?If you want to learn the basics of programming, there are plenty of video tutorials on websites like YouTube.Are you looking for free online lessons? You should check out Codeacademy, an interactive online platform offering lessons in six different programming languages including Python, PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.Whether you’re on Windows, Mac, or Linux, learning PHP can be really useful.8. Make Your Own Website!You don’t need to be a web designer to make a website.  There are plenty of sites that can help you do it quic kly and easily. You can buy and modify pre-built websites before publishing them on platforms such as WordPress.If you want to make a website, you should study HTML and CSS.

What is IT Security?When you learn about IT, you’ll learn that securing the wealth of information transferred over networks is imperative. In some cases, losing data can cost companies thousands.Some of the world’s best hackers are even working for government agencies and multinationals in order to help secure their data from the threat of piracy or theft.At the very least, you should make sure that you have antivirus software and a firewall. Additionally, tutorials on IT security wouldn’t hurt.10.

What if My Child is Poor in Both Reading and Writing

What if My Child is Poor in Both Reading and Writing 0SHARESShare The answer to the questions is all about spending some quality time reading and writing together. Read to Your Child: The parents who help reading to their toddlers always further grow as better student with effective reading and writing skills. A reading habit exposes your child to the vocabulary, sentence structure, and logical thinking and communication skills.   Reading gives quality time together which strengthen your parent-child bond. Encourage Your Child to Read: Once you start with reading, encourage your child to read and share their learning to you. Get them plenty of reading books of their own interesting subjects. Get them interesting books in dinosaurs, comics, story books and science books. Reading is not fun but also source of information. So start developing aptitude towards reading books on new subjects. Make Reading and Writing Fun: Encourage your child to make reading and writing fun.   Make your child develop new stories and write them down. At first, do not worry about grammar, just make them write. Recite their writing and encourage them asking what their writing mean. Just encourage how they deliver their ideas in writing. Do not nag them as you are making fun of writing. Help Your Child: When you find your child in trouble reading and understanding the books then help them and sort out their reading gaps. Assist your child learning new vocabulary and spellings to make them read better and faster. Often online tutoring websites offer games like “word of the day” which gives more vocabulary to learn. You can ask QA that creates more interest in reading books. Ensure that your child is not suffering from any physical disabilities like poor eyesight or dyslexia. Spend Time for Homework: Help your child them in any subject that forms part of curriculum. Spend at least couple of hours each day. Share their classroom learning and help them to complete their homework. During this time, you can give reading practice, writing QA and asking quiz on the lesson that is learnt. Online tutoring services can best help your child to improve reading and writing. [starbox id=admin]

5 Simple Ways to Improve Your ACT Test Scores

5 Simple Ways to Improve Your ACT Test Scores ACT SAT Prep and College Admissions Blog Though there are many factors that play into the college admissions process, your score on the ACT carries a lot of weight. It can influence not only what colleges you get accepted to, but also the availability and amount of scholarship funds, and is therefore not to be underestimated. If you weren’t the best student in high school, and thus don’t have the best grades, doing well on the ACT represents an opportunity to partially make up for less than stellar academic performance in high school. So, it can really be viewed as an exciting opportunity, instead of a stressful requirement. With that in mind, here are 5 strategies you can apply to get the best score possible. Strategies 1 and 2: Before the Test Study Comprehensively Though it can seem overwhelming at times, the ACT represents a fixed target, which anyone can hit with sufficient preparation. It is not an IQ test. It tests knowledge and skills developed in high school and which are needed for college, and which, most importantly, can be learned. Well before you plan to take the test, buy one of the many comprehensive ACT study guides on the market, like the Real ACT Prep Guide, and read all of it, doing the practice problems along the way. This may seem like a lot of work, but if you do the heavy lifting on the front end, taking the test will seem easy by comparison, and you will be able to max out your score. Take Practice Tests The best way to both predict and improve your performance on the ACT is by taking practice tests under the same conditions as the actual test. Give yourself a time limit, and don't allow any references or distractions. Research suggests that, like the old adage, practice is what gets people closes to perfect. It turns out that even purported geniuses in their particular field, like Mozart or Michael Jordan, actually practiced much, much more than those around them at their craft. The more times you do this the better, but four is a decent minimum. Space the tests equally, say one per week for four weeks, and give yourself time to review the problems that you missed or that you didn't understand. If you study your mistakes carefully, you will be able to improve your performance each time, and once you can consistently get a perfect or near-perfect score on practice exams, you will be able to take the real test without breaking a sweat. Strategies 2-5: During the Test Use The Process Of Elimination When you are taking the test, there is no reason not to answer every question, even if you have to guess (which, if you have prepared thoroughly as recommended above, should only happen rarely if at all). But before you do, you should identify and eliminate the answers that are obviously wrong. This may help you identify the correct answer if you are stumped, and will at least improve your odds if you have to guess. Review Reading Comprehension Answer Choices First On the Reading Comprehension section you will be required to read a number of passages and then answer questions about them. Since the passages are fairly long, it is helpful to quickly read the questions first, so that you will be primed to spot the answers as you are reading. This will save you the time of having to reread or refer back to the passage in order to answer. Keep Your Stress Down Do whatever you need to both take care of yourself and ensure that you are well prepared. Stress inhibits performance, so you want to avoid it as much as possible. The better prepared you are the less stressed you will be, but here are some other strategies to put into practice Get plenty of sleep the night before so that you can show up for the test ahead of time and well-rested. Envision a positive outcome. Remember the first rule of tight-rope walking: don't look down. Remember that if you don't get the score you want, you can practice more and re-take the test, so you have nothing to be afraid of. And of course you can always hire anACT tutorto help with the preparation process. A tutor can help not only improve your score, but help you learn faster and more easily than you could on your own, which helps keep stress down.

The 4 days from thanksgiving Thursday up to and including  Cyber Monday are a shoppers paradise  (place for the most pleasure!). They can pursue their hobby,  enjoy their retail therapy  (relaxing by going to the shops) and spend money they often do not have.These four days are usually a time when people go bargain hunting and the retailers will attract the  shopper with some interesting bargains to entice  (attract) the customer in to their store.
