Here are the endings that match each of the subject pronouns: yo -o nostros(as) -amos tú -as vosotros(as) -áis él, ella, Ud. -a ellos, ellas, Uds. -an The forms of the verb estudiar are: yo estudio nostros(as) estudiamos tú estudias vosotros(as) estudiáis él, ella, Ud. estudia ellos, ellas, Uds. estudian The meanings of the verb estudiar with the endings added are: yo estudio = I study, I am studying, I do study tú estudias = you (informal) study, you are studying, you do study él/ella estudia = he/she studies, he/she is studying, he/she does study usted (Ud.) estudia = you (informal) study, you are studying, you do study nosotros(as) estudiamos = we study, we are studying, we do study vosotros(as) estudiáis = you all (informal) study, are studying, do study ellos/ellas estudian = they study, they are studying, they do study ustedes (Uds.) = you all (informal/formal) study, are studying, do study SUBJECT-VERB AGREEMENT The verb ending is dependent upon the subject. 1.
