Learn Spanish Activity Vocabulary 🏃‍♂️ | Essential Words for Hobbies & Daily Routines

Vocabulario. Actividades. Vocabulary. Activities. In this lesson, we're going to learn about actividades, or activities. Because activities are things that we do, this list of vocab words will be verbs, which you can see in their AR, IR, and ER endings. If a verb is irregular, we will practice conjugating it in the present tense together. Let's get started on the lecture, and feel free to repeat after me. Notice that the verb is hacer, and ejercicio is a noun. Hacer ejercicio directly translates to to do exercise. As you have seen before, hacer is an irregular verb. The conjugations go as follows. To watch TV is... Just like the previous phrase, mirar is the verb, and televisión is the noun for TV. Like we have seen before, ir is an irregular verb. The conjugations go as follows. Yo voy. Tú vas. Él va. Nosotros vamos. Vosotros vais. Ellos van. To play guitar is... Notice that the verb tocar is to touch or to play, and la guitarra is the noun. To hang out with friends is... This directly translates to to pass time with my friends. To skate is... To ski is... To ride a bike is... To play sports is... Good work! You have now completed the lecture.
