There is a fairly large group of verbs in Spanish that undergo changes in their stem when conjugated in the present tense. These changes occur only in the first and second persons singular and third persons singular and plural.
When a line is drawn around the forms that change, the resulting shape vaguely resembles a boot or high-top shoe; thus, these verbs are sometimes informally called “boot” or “shoe” verbs.
There are three types or classes of “boot” verbs.

Both querer and preferir can be used with an infinitive directly after them
Rafael quiere bailar, pero yo prefiero leer.
quieroquieresquiere
queremosqueréisquieren
We start with an appropriate person and number of querer or preferir . . . and then add any infinitive.
