Answer

I'd like to make a suggestion. When you have any problem with some verb you can check the Spanish Academy (RAE): http://www.rae.es/rae.html , introduce the verb (infinitive form) and click the "conjugar" button. You will get all the verbal forms. Good Luck

Answer

In "vestir" and "pedir": All the forms of the presente de subjuntivo, imperfecto de subjuntivo and futuro de subjuntivo are iregulars.The three persons of the singular and the third person of the plural in the present of indicative are irregulars. Furthermore, the third person of the singular and the plural of the indefinido are irregulars too.
In "empezar", "cerrar", "despertar", "acostar", "pensar": Only the three persons of the singular and the third person of the plural in the two presents (indicative and subjunctive) are irregulars.

Answer

verbs are irregulars in spanish when they change the root(lexema), the desinence, or both of them.
-verb "pensar" change the root/ dejar: yo dej- o)/ but it is said yo "piens-o" and no, "yo penso". In verb pensar is irregular only the root, because the desinence is the same as verbs finished in-ar: cant-o, habl-o... the same happen with verb "empezar"(change only the root), then it is irregular because change its root.
-some verbs have an irregular participle: ver: visto and no "veido", escribir: escrito and no "escribido"
On the other hand:there are verbs wiih a difficult conjunction and grammatics says: vestir is conjugated the same as pedir, because both of them have a similar conjugation: pido, visto, pidió, vistió, pedía vestía.
