This conjugation is similar to the conjugation of the verbs that drop the final vowel and replace it with a “d.” The only difference between these two conjugations is that this one drops the final vowel, but does not replace it with any other letter. It is just left without the final vowel. Then the correct conjugation that matches the subject is added to the end of the newly conjugated verb. There are four verbs that conjugate this way.

They are: querer, caber, poder, and saber. Querer means “to want.” Caber means “to fit.” Poder means “to be able to.” Saber means “to know.”

The pneumonic for these verbs to remember how to conjugate them is “Queens Can’t Play Sports.”
