Today we're going to learn a new verb that ends with A-R

and is conjugated exactly like Ablar.

This verb is Dejar, which most literally means to leave as in to leave something behind. But it's also used to mean to stop doing something,

as in to leave off doing something. Here some examples of both uses I want to leave my car here I want to leave my auto here I want to stop doing that.

I want to do that.

Notice that when you use this verb to describe stopping doing something, you put the

preposition dee after dejar, and then you use an infinitive.

In this case, Dejar de Aser.

Try it yourself in the next example,

which uses the third person singular,

Deja.

He stops passing by here.

Deja de passer

for here.

Deja de pass by here. Deja to pass by here.

Now see if you can predict another version of this same sentence, this time in the preterate tense.

He stopped passing by here. Dejoh de'o de passer for here.

Dejo de'o de passer for here.
