1. When the monkey says, "Vamos a comer", notice that "vamos a" is like saying, "let's [do something]". With that in mind, what would the following mean?*
¡Vamos a saltar!
¡Vamos a correr!
¡Vamos a vivir en una casa!
¡Vamos a visitar la selva!
¡Vamos a volver!
¡Vamos a tener un mono!
2. If "va" means "he/she goes" and "vamos" means "we go", what do we add on the end of most verbs to mean "we"?
3. So what would the following mean in English then?
Saltamos
Corremos
Vivimos
Tenemos
Queremos
Vamos
Volvemos
le decimos
nos gusta**
*It literally translates to "we go" or "we are going". In some it might make more since as, "We're going to ___"
** Notice that "nos gusta" (we like) doesn't follow the formula.
