​First Person or Third Person

If you are writing the sentence with you doing the action, then you are the first person. You will be the subject of the sentence so call yourself "I".
If you are describing the action of a person WHO IS NOT IN THE CONVERSATION, then you are writing for a third person. Call this person "he" or "she".

​An action is a verb.

In Spanish 1, we have learned the following actions:
say, walk, run, see, can or cannot, exist, go, close, open, take, speak, want to be, have, write, draw, erase, jump, gallop, sit, stand, touch, place, take out.

​AR verbs are verbs that end with the letters AR in the infinitive. Caminar, tocar and tomar are all AR verbs. In the first person, they end with O. In the third person, they end with A.

Here is another AR verb, "hablar". What does "hablar" mean?

​ER verbs are verbs that end with the letters ER in the infinitive. Correr and querer are ER verbs. In the first person, they end with O. In the third person, they end with E.

What does querer mean?

​It means "to want to be".
