When conjugating verbs in Spanish, is it required to put the subject pronoun in front of the verb? Explain.
Sometimes. Usually NO, because based off of the ending of the verb you can tell who is being talked about. For example canto, hablo, escribo are all YO because the ending is only "O" for yo. Only when you need to differentiate between el/ella/usted, and ellos/ellas/ustedes do you need to use the subject, since they all share endings.
