Brief Explanations

This is a Spanish verb conjugation problem. We need to conjugate the verbs in parentheses according to the subject and the present tense rules for -ar, -er, -ir verbs (and stem -changing verbs here: dormir, pedir, querer have stem changes in some forms).

  1. For "Mi amiga (jugar) bien al voleibol":

Subject: "mi amiga" (third - person singular, feminine). The verb "jugar" is a regular -ar verb? Wait, no, "jugar" has a stem change (u→ue) in some forms, but in the present tense, for third - person singular (él/ella/usted), the conjugation of "jugar" is "juega". Wait, no, wait: "jugar" is a stem - changing verb (u→ue) in the present tense. The present tense conjugation of "jugar" is: yo juego, tú juegas, él/ella/usted juega, nosotros jugamos, vosotros jugáis, ellos/ellas/ustedes juegan. So for "mi amiga" (ella), it's "juega".

  1. For "Yo (dormir) ocho horas cada noche":

Subject: "yo" (first - person singular). "Dormir" is a stem - changing verb (o→ue) in the present tense. The present tense conjugation of "dormir" is: yo duermo, tú duermes, él/ella/usted duerme, nosotros dormimos, vosotros dormís, ellos/ellas/ustedes duermen. So "yo" takes "duermo".

  1. For "Mis hermanos (pedir) pollo y papas en el restaurante":

Subject: "mis hermanos" (third - person plural, ellos). "Pedir" is a stem - changing verb (e→i) in the present tense. The present tense conjugation of "pedir" is: yo pido, tú pides, él/ella/usted pide, nosotros pedimos, vosotros pedís, ellos/ellas/ustedes piden. So "mis hermanos" (ellos) take "piden".

  1. For "Nosotros no (jugar) hockey en el verano":

Subject: "nosotros" (first - person plural). The present tense conjugation of "jugar" for "nosotros" is "jugamos" (since the stem change for "jugar" (u→ue) doesn't happen in the "nosotros" form). So "nosotros no jugamos".

  1. For "Tú (querer) un teléfono nuevo, ¿verdad?":

Subject: "tú" (second - person singular). "Querer" is a stem - changing verb (e→ie) in the present tense. The present tense conjugation of "querer" is: yo quiero, tú quieres, él/ella/usted quiere, nosotros queremos, vosotros queréis, ellos/ellas/ustedes quieren. So "tú" takes "quieres".

  1. For "Raquel y Suzette (querer) ser médicas":

Subject: "Raquel y Suzette" (third - person plural, ellas). The present tense conjugation of "querer" for "ellos/ellas" is "quieren".

Answer:

  1. juega
  2. duermo
  3. piden
  4. jugamos
  5. quieres
  6. quieren
