Why does this change?
- Stem-changing
- The vowel in the stem changes in most forms (e.g. e→ie, o→ue) — but the endings themselves stay completely regular.
- o→ue in the present tense (except nosotros)
- participle: devuelto
o→ue in the present (see stemChanges), with an irregular participle — like volver, its base verb.
