Spanish Verb PEDIR: to ask for

The Spanish verb pedir means 'to ask for ' and is an irregular Spanish IR verb.

To remember this, imagine you ask for a new PEDal!

Around 30 verbs are conjugated like pedir, replacing the e with an i in the present, preterite, subjunctive and imperative tenses.
During the second part of October a new irregular IR verb is featured each day to enable you to consolidate this IR verb family. You will learn other verbs such as copedirse, despedir, embestir, expedir, gemir and others.

I find that the fastest and easiest way to learn and REMEMBER new Spanish words is with memory trigger cartoon pictures. It makes them harder to forget.
