Spanish adverbs Cheat Sheet (DRAFT) by

Spanish verbs are generally easier to deal with than English ones because regular Spanish verbs use consistent rules whether you’re forming simple tenses or moving into participles. To highlight the contrast, the Spanish verbs for speak, eat, and live are often used as examples of regular Spanish verbs, and there’s nothing regular about any of these verbs in English!

This is a draft cheat sheet. It is a work in progress and is not finished yet.
