Preterito Imperfecto - Spanish Verbs

There are two possible forms for each person for the Pretérito Imperfecto of the Subjunctive Mood once conjugated. When using this tense you will only use one or the other form not both. From the academic point of view, your teacher might expect both forms conjugated. Ask your teacher.


Regular Spanish Verbs

To conjugate the regular verbs in the pretérito imperfecto of the subjunctive mood, you take the infinitive form of the verb as it is found in the dictionary, you remove the group endings (-ar, -er, -ir) and replace them with the personal endings. The stem of the verb remains the same.

TIP: Most Spanish verbs fall under the -ar group.



Irregular Spanish Verbs

The irregular verbs are conjugated in the same form. Remember the vowel changes (The vowels that change are e-ie, o-ue, e-i and u-ue.).

 

Some irregular verbs are highly irregular like the verb "ir".

 

The personal endings of the Form 1 for the Pretérito Imperfecto of the Subjunctive Mood are as follows.

 

-ar Group -er Group -ir Group
I - ara I - iera I - iera
You - aras You - ieras You - ieras
He/she/it - ara He/She/it - iera He/She/it - iera
We - áramos We - iéramos We - iéramos
You(all) - arais You(all) - ierais You(all) - ierais
They - aran They - ieran They - ieran

Preterito Imperfecto - Verbos Espanoles

Hay dos formas posibles para cada persona para el Pretérito Imperfecto del modo subjuntivo una vez conjugado. Cuando lo usamos este tiempo sólo utilizaremos una de las formas y no las dos a la vez. Desde el punto de vista académico, su profesor puede que quiera que conjugue las dos formas. Pregúntele a su profesor.



Verbos Regulares

Para conjugar los verbos regulares en el tiempo pretérito imperfecto del modo subjuntivo, cogemos la forma de infinitivo del verbo tal y como nos la encontramos en el diccionario, le quitamos la terminación de infinitivo (-ar, -er o -ir) y la sustituimos por la terminación personal correspondiente. La raíz del verbo se queda igual.

 

Nota: La mayoría de los verbos españoles pertenecen al grupo terminado en -ar.

 

Verbos Irregulares

Los verbos irregulares se conjugan de la misma manera. Recuerde los cambios de las vocales (las vocales que cambian son e-ie, o-ue, e-i y u-ue.)

 

Algunos verbos irregulares son altamente irregulares como es el verbo "ir".





Las terminaciones personales de la forma 1 son las siguientes para el tiempo pretérito imperfecto del modo subjuntivo:

 

-ar Grupo -er Grupo -ir Grupo
