Conjugation of BE :
In linguistics, conjugation (Konjuh-gey-shuh n) is the creation of
derived forms of a verb from its
principal parts by inflection
(alteration of form according to
rules of grammar). Conjugation
may be affected by person,
number, gender, tense, aspect,
mood, voice, or other
grammatical categories. The
verb "to be" is the most irregular
verb in English. The verb to be is
conjugated as follows:

Hi my Name is Jesse, and I am a

soccer player.
I have
soccer practices every Monday and
Wednesday after school.

My soccer team is the best in the

league,
and it is
because we are all friends. This
Saturday we are playing a
tournament at Jefferson Elementary
school at 10:00 am, and you are
invited! You can bring all your friends
and family with you, you are going to
be our best supporters; and our

favorite fans from now on.

This is my soccer team

. We are 17 in total; there are 3

forwards, I am

one of

those forwards, we are the ones who

score the goals during a soccer match.

There are 5

defenses; they are the ones

who defend the goalkeeper, from

getting scored. There are 2

sweepers; sweepers help out the
defense to protect the goalkeeper

from getting scored. There are 2

goalkeepers, and

finally there are, 5

midfielders; and they

are the ones who help out the
forwards to score goals by
passing them the soccer ball.

He is my coach. His
name is Mr.
Alvarenga, and she

is
the
coachs assistant. Her name is
Miss. Mndez. By far this team
has taught me many skills; it is
the best soccer team I have
been part of.

Now they are all part of my family.
