Question

1. yo _________ (perder)

pierdo

pierde

perdo

perde

Explanation:

Identify the subject pronoun and verb

The subject pronoun is "Yo" (I) and the infinitive verb is "perder" (to lose).

Determine the stem change and conjugation

The verb "perder" is an -er verb that undergoes an e-to-ie stem change in the present tense. For the first-person singular "Yo", the stem "perd-" changes to "pierd-", and the ending "-o" is added.

Match with the correct option

Combining the stem change and the ending yields "pierdo", which matches the first option.

Answer:

• pierdo (Correct answer)
• pierde
• perdo
• perde
