Irregular Spanish Verb Ir

Irregular Verb - ir

One of the most useful Spanish verbs is the verb “ir,” which means “to go.” This verb is an irregular verb because the present tense conjugations do not follow the norm which you previously learned.

The table below shows how to conjugate "ir" in the present tense:

Sound ir (example sentences)(full conjugation)

yo Sound voy (I go)
Sound vas (you go)
Ud./él/ella Sound va (you/he/she goes)
nosotros (as) Sound vamos (we go)
vosotros (as) Sound vais (you guys go)
Uds./ellos/ ellas Sound van (you all/they go)

Whenever you say that something or someone is “going to” a place, you have to add the Spanish preposition “a,” which means “to.” We use the formula:

voy + a + place

Él va a su casa. - He goes to his house.

Nosotros vamos a México. - We’re going to Mexico.

m = male f = female mix = mixed group
yo = I, tú = you (informal)
usted (Ud.) = you (formal)
él = he, ella = she
nosotros = we (m/mix), nosotras = we (f)
vosotros = you guys (informal, m/mix)
vosotras = you guys (informal, f)
ellos = they (m/mix), ellas = they (f)
ustedes (Uds.) = you all (formal)
