'Creen' is an infinitive

  True

- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Disfrutar is not a conjugated/formed verb. It is actually an infinitive verb in Spanish, which means it is in its base form and has not been conjugated to match a specific subject or tense. To use disfrutar in a sentence, it needs to be conjugated based on the subject and the tense being used.

12.

'Temo' is a conjugated verb
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The statement "Temo is a conjugated verb" is true. In grammar, conjugation refers to the variation of a verb's form to express different grammatical categories such as tense, mood, aspect, and person. Since "Temo" is a verb that has been modified to match the subject and tense of the sentence, it is indeed a conjugated verb.
