Why does this change?
- Orthographic (spelling) change
- The spelling shifts in some forms to keep the pronunciation consistent (e.g. c→qu, g→gu) — the sound doesn't actually change, just how it's written.
- Reflexive
- The subject does the action to itself, so the verb pairs with a reflexive pronoun (me, te, se, nos, se) — e.g. levantarse, "to get (oneself) up."
- z → c before -é (preterite yo)
