IWhat to watch for

Vivir is the model -ir verb: vivo, vives, vive, vivimos, vivís, viven. Four of the six forms share comer's endings (-o, -es, -e, -en); only nosotros and vosotros change — vivimos and vivís, against comemos and coméis.

Those two forms are the whole trap: 'vivemos' does not exist, and vivís carries its accent on the final í. Vivir takes en for places (vivo en Quito), con for people (vive con sus abuelos) and de for a source of income (viven del turismo).
