to agree

Frequency#1108Irregular

Indicative

Present (Presente) Irregular

The presente covers routines, states, and immediate future with adverbs like hoje or amanhã. One present form covers both English simple and progressive readings in most situations.

Ela estuda português todas as noites.

vocêcondizyou agree
ele/elacondizhe/she/it agrees
nóscondizemoswe agree
vóscondizeisyou (pl.) agree
vocêscondizemyou (pl.) agree

Preterite (Pretérito perfeito simples) Irregular

The pretérito perfeito simples is a sharp, completed past. In European Portuguese it is the standard story-telling past; Brazilian usage often prefers the compound form in speech while keeping the simple for narrative and writing.

Ontem escreveu a carta inteira de uma vez.

PronounPortugueseEnglish
eucondisseI agreed
tucondissesteyou agreed
vocêcondisseyou agreed
ele/elacondissehe/she/it agreed
nóscondissemoswe agreed
vóscondissestesyou (pl.) agreed
vocêscondisseramyou (pl.) agreed
eles/elascondisseramthey agreed

Imperfect (Pretérito imperfeito) Regular

The imperfeito describes past background, repeated actions, and how things used to be. Contrast it with the simple preterite for the “main event” line of a story.

Quando era criança, brincava na praia.

PronounPortuguese
eucondizia
tucondizias
vocêcondizia
ele/elacondizia
nóscondizíamos
vóscondizíeis
vocêscondiziam
eles/elascondiziam

Conditional (Condicional) Irregular

The condicional is for polite offers, soft questions, and hypothetical “would” outcomes, and it often closes a se + imperfeito do subjuntivo chain in formal style.

Você poderia me explicar outra vez?

PronounPortugueseEnglish
eucondiriaI would agree
tucondiriasyou would agree
vocêcondiriayou would agree
ele/elacondiriahe/she/it would agree
nóscondiríamoswe would agree
vóscondiríeisyou (pl.) would agree
vocêscondiriamyou (pl.) would agree
eles/elascondiriamthey would agree

Future (Futuro do presente) Regular

The futuro do presente states future facts; in everyday conversation you will often hear ir + infinitive or even the present with a time adverb instead of the synthetic future.

Amanhã faremos a reunião mais cedo.

PronounPortugueseEnglish
eucondireiI will agree
tucondirásyou will agree
vocêcondiráyou will agree
ele/elacondiráhe/she/it will agree
nóscondiremoswe will agree
vóscondireisyou (pl.) will agree
vocêscondirãoyou (pl.) will agree
eles/elascondirãothey will agree

Present perfect (Pretérito perfeito composto) Irregular

The pretérito perfeito composto uses ter or haver plus the participle for a past that still touches the present or happens repeatedly up to now — a “have done” perfect with strong links to European norms.

Tenho pensado nisso há semanas.

PronounPortugueseEnglish
eutenho conditoI have agreed
tutens conditoyou have agreed
vocêtem conditoyou have agreed
ele/elatem conditohe/she/it has agreed
nóstemos conditowe have agreed
vóstendes conditoyou (pl.) have agreed
vocêstêm conditoyou (pl.) have agreed
eles/elastêm conditothey have agreed

Pluperfect (Mais-que-perfeito composto) Irregular

The mais-que-perfeito composto is the pluperfect: an action was already finished before another past reference. It mirrors the English “had already”.

Já tinham saído quando chegámos.

PronounPortugueseEnglish
eutinha conditoI had agreed
tutinhas conditoyou had agreed
vocêtinha conditoyou had agreed
ele/elatinha conditohe/she/it had agreed
nóstínhamos conditowe had agreed
vóstínheis conditoyou (pl.) had agreed
vocêstinham conditoyou (pl.) had agreed
eles/elastinham conditothey had agreed

Conditional perfect (Condicional composto) Irregular

The condicional composto expresses a counterfactual “would have” and appears with the right kind of if-clause in the subjunctive past for unreal conditions.

Teria aceite se tiveses avisado com antecedência.

PronounPortuguese
euteria condito
tuterias condito
vocêteria condito
ele/elateria condito
nósteríamos condito
vósteríeis condito
vocêsteriam condito
eles/elasteriam condito

Future perfect (Futuro composto) Irregular

The futuro composto is the future-in-the-future: something will be finished before a later time. It is less frequent than the simple future but still useful for deadlines.

Até sexta, teremos lido tudo o relatório.

PronounPortugueseEnglish
euterei conditoI will have agreed
tuterás conditoyou will have agreed
vocêterá conditoyou will have agreed
ele/elaterá conditohe/she/it will have agreed
nósteremos conditowe will have agreed
vóstereis conditoyou (pl.) will have agreed
vocêsterão conditoyou (pl.) will have agreed
eles/elasterão conditothey will have agreed

Subjunctive

Present subjunctive (Conjuntivo presente) Regular

The present subjunctive appears after want, hope, fear, and impersonal triggers, and typically requires a new subject in the subordinate clause, just as in the other main Romance languages.

Espero que encontres o caminho fácil.

PronounPortuguese
eucondiga
tucondigas
vocêcondiga
ele/elacondiga
nóscondigamos
vóscondigais
vocêscondigam
eles/elascondigam

Imperfect subjunctive (Conjuntivo pretérito imperf.) Regular

The imperfect subjunctive in se + subjunctive → condicional is the classic “if I were a rich man” line in European Portuguese, parallel to the Spanish -ra form.

Se tivesse mais tempo, aprenderia outro idioma.

PronounPortuguese
eucondissesse
tucondissesses
vocêcondissesse
ele/elacondissesse
nóscondisséssemos
vóscondissésseis
vocêscondissessem
eles/elascondissessem

Other forms

Imperative (affirmative) (Imperativo afirmativo) Regular

The affirmative imperative in Portuguese is built with tu, você, nós, vós, and vocês forms; Brazilian norms favour você/vocês with third-person present verb shapes.

Diga a verdade, por favor.

PronounPortuguese
tucondize
vocêcondiga
ele/elacondiga
nóscondigamos
vóscondizei
vocêscondigam
eles/elascondigam

Imperative (negative) (Imperativo negativo) Regular

Negative commands require não plus the present subjunctive for each person, which is a distinctive feature compared to other Romance systems that reuse present indicative in some slots.

Não falemos com pressa, está tudo calmo.

PronounPortuguese
tunão condigas
vocênão condiga
ele/elanão condiga
nósnão condigamos
vósnão condigais
vocêsnão condigam
