Do you get excited about the prospect of visiting a library or bookshop? Then, this article is definitely for you. This time around, we\u2019ll be focusing on the verb <em>leer <\/em>(to read). As usual, we\u2019ll show you the most common <em>leer <\/em>conjugations for those who are just starting out and cover examples for more proficient Spanish users. We will also add some reading recommendations and interesting phrases.<\/p>\n<p>What are you waiting for? Let\u2019s get this story started!<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-4340-_ry55tzj659bm\"><\/a>What type of verb is <em>leer<\/em>?<\/h2>\n<p><em>Leer<\/em> is regular from a morphological point of view, but not when it comes to pronunciation and spelling.<\/p>\n<p>Does this sound too technical? Worry not, here comes the explanation. The trick with <em>leer <\/em>is that in some conjugations the \u201ci\u201d turns into the consonant \u201cy\u201d when we find it in between two vowels. This means that, although the model form of the gerund would naturally be \u201cleiendo\u201d, because of the \u201ci\u201d being sandwiched between two other vowels it turns into a \u201cy\u201d and we get \u201cleyendo\u201d. What a trip! We hope we have made that a bit clearer.<\/p>\n<p>You can check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clozemaster.com\/blog\/spanish-tenses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our article on the Spanish different tenses<\/a> if you\u2019re feeling extra curious and want to look at more conjugation examples for regular Spanish verbs.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-4340-_x7f8cynbe9n2\"><\/a>Verbals of <em>leer<\/em>: infinitive, gerund and participle<\/h2>\n<p>Before we start our official reading lessons, let\u2019s explore the verbals of <em>leer. <\/em>These are the infinitive, the gerund and the participle. Verbals actually work as nouns, adjectives and adverbs instead of verbs. This can make them a bit confusing at first, but we\u2019re sure you\u2019ll get the hang of them in no time.<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-4340-_u5uau274tv2q\"><\/a>Infinitive<\/h3>\n<p><strong><em>Leer <\/em>(to read)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Voy a <strong>leer <\/strong>una novela de ciencia ficci\u00f3n.
