Singular and Plural

On this page you'll find easy Spanish writing exercises to practice switching between the singular and plural conjugation of the third person in the present tense.

For exercises on other aspects of Spanish grammar see our index of exercises and worksheets.



But first of all, a quick review:

study
trabajan
work

You notice, of course, that there's no difference between the masculine and feminine form, just like in English. It couldn't be easier!

Now let's get started:
