In order to begin to learn about accentuation in Spanish and the placement of tildes, or accent marks, Lara teaches us three different categories, "agudas," "graves," and "esdrújulas," into which Spanish words are divided, depending upon where they are stressed.

After teaching us the three different categories of Spanish words depending upon where they are stressed, Lara lays out some simple rules for correctly placing the written accent, or tilde, in words in each category.

Lara gives us a brief introduction to Spanish verbs, informing us of the three main verb categories (verbs ending in -ar, -er, and -ir) that we will later conjugate.
