Most Russian verbs fall into two groups: first conjugation and second conjugation. First conjugation verbs are usually verbs with the ending – ать, -ять. Second conjugation verbs are usually verbs with the ending – еть, ить First conjugation verbs take the endings -ю(-у ); -ешь; -ет; -ем; -ете and -ют (- ут) in the Present Tense. Second conjugation verbs take the endings -ю (-у); -ишь; -ит; -им; -ите and -ят (-ат) in the Present Tense. To form the present tense of first conjugation verbs remove two final letters from infinitive and add the appropriate present tense ending. To form the present tense of second conjugation verbs remove three final letters from infinitive and replace them by the appropriate present tense ending. After к, г, х, ж, ш, щ, ч, ц write -у and -а instead of -ю and -я (я учу, они учат).
