Prefiero ..... I prefer....

Notice that to prefer is preferir.
I prefer is prefiero and he/she prefers/you prefer are prefiere,or Vd. prefiere.
The vowels -ie- appear instead of the -e- in the second syllable.
They prefer is prefieren, but we prefer is preferimos,without the -ie-.
This is a common pattern in Spanish  - Our new verb quiero, quiere, quieren butqueremos (infinitive querer) be haves in exactly the same way.
You will notice other examples of vowel changes, but just learn them as they occur.

Yo - prefiero
Tu/él/ella - prefiere
??? - prefieren
Nosotros - preferimos

* The vowels -ie- appear instead of the -e- in the second syllable.
