Job interviews are one of Rob's least favourite things. But they're also a great way into the indefinido, because you spend the whole time telling your life story. In a role-play, Rob plays the interviewer and Lis talks him through her career: studying law, working in the Colombian Congress, then at a small human rights firm. Rob then goes through the regular -ar, -er and -ir endings, and shows how one stressed syllable turns hablo, 'I speak', into habló, 'she spoke'.

Quick test: Trabajamos can mean 'we work' or 'we worked'. So how do you know which one you're hearing?
