Spanish

In another group of verbs, the last e in the stem turns into an i in the third person plural and in all singular persons.
	Beneath is a list of commmon verbs with this behavior.


<table class="ui fixed celled table">
	<tbody>
		<tr>
			<td>to ask for; to demand; to order</td>
			<td>pedir</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>to serve</td>
			<td>servir</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>to repeat</td>
			<td>repetir</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>to say; to tell</td>
			<td>decir</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>to follow; to continue</td>
			<td>seguir</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>to get; to obtain, to achieve</td>
			<td>conseguir</td>
		</tr>
	</tbody>
</table>

<table class="ui fixed celled definition table">
	<thead>
		<tr>
			<th>e → i</th>
			<th>Singular</th>
			<th>Plural</th>
		</tr>
	</thead>
	<tbody>
		<tr>
			<td>First person</td>
			<td>pido sirvo repito</td>
			<td>pedimos servimos repetimos</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>Second person</td>
			<td>pides sirves repites</td>
			<td>pedís servís repetís</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>Third person</td>
			<td>pide sirve repite</td>
			<td>piden sirven repiten</td>
		</tr>
	</tbody>
</table>


	The last three verbs in this list don't only change the e into an i, but also add a g before the o for the first person singular.


<table class="ui fixed celled definition table">
	<thead>
		<tr>
			<th>e → i &amp; -o → -go</th>
			<th>Singular</th>
			<th>Plural</th>
		</tr>
	</thead>
	<tbody>
		<tr>
			<td>First person</td>
			<td>digo sigo consigo</td>
			<td>decimos seguimos conseguimos</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>Second person</td>
			<td>dices sigues consigues</td>
			<td>decís seguís conseguís</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>Third person</td>
			<td>dice sigue consigue</td>
			<td>dicen siguen consiguen</td>
		</tr>
	</tbody>
</table>


	Note that in the first person singular of seguir and conseguir, not only a g is added, but also the u disappears.
