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.

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.

vocêshospedaram-seyou (pl.) boarded

Imperfect (Pretérito imperfeito) Irregular

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
euhospedava-me
tuhospedavas-te
vocêhospedava-se

Conditional (Condicional) Regular

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
euhospedar-me-iaI would board
tuhospedar-te-iasyou would board
vocêhospedar-se-iayou would board

vóshospedar-vos-íeisyou (pl.) would board
vocêshospedar-se-iamyou (pl.) would board
eles/elashospedar-se-iamthey would board

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
euhospedar-me-eiI will board
tuhospedar-te-ásyou will board
vocêhospedar-se-áyou will board
ele/elahospedar-se-áhe/she/it will board

vóshospedar-vos-eisyou (pl.) will board
vocêshospedar-se-ãoyou (pl.) will board
eles/elashospedar-se-ãothey will board

Present perfect (Pretérito perfeito composto) Regular

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 hospedadoI have boarded
tutens hospedadoyou have boarded
vocêtem hospedadoyou have boarded
ele/elatem hospedadohe/she/it has boarded
nóstemos hospedadowe have boarded
vóstendes hospedadoyou (pl.) have boarded
vocêstêm hospedadoyou (pl.) have boarded
eles/elastêm hospedadothey have boarded

Pluperfect (Mais-que-perfeito composto) Regular

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 hospedadoI had boarded
tutinhas hospedadoyou had boarded
vocêtinha hospedadoyou had boarded
ele/elatinha hospedadohe/she/it had boarded
nóstínhamos hospedadowe had boarded
vóstínheis hospedadoyou (pl.) had boarded
vocêstinham hospedadoyou (pl.) had boarded
eles/elastinham hospedadothey had boarded

Conditional perfect (Condicional composto) Regular

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 hospedado
tuterias hospedado
vocêteria hospedado
ele/elateria hospedado
nósteríamos hospedado
vósteríeis hospedado
vocêsteriam hospedado
eles/elasteriam hospedado

Future perfect (Futuro composto) Regular

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 hospedadoI will have boarded
tuterás hospedadoyou will have boarded
vocêterá hospedadoyou will have boarded
ele/elaterá hospedadohe/she/it will have boarded
nósteremos hospedadowe will have boarded
vóstereis hospedadoyou (pl.) will have boarded
vocêsterão hospedadoyou (pl.) will have boarded
eles/elasterão hospedadothey will have boarded

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
euhospede-me
tuhospedes-te
vocêhospede-se
ele/elahospede-se
nóshospedemo-nos
vóshospedeis-vos
vocêshospedem-se
eles/elashospedem-se

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
euhospedasse-me
tuhospedasses-te
vocêhospedasse-se
ele/elahospedasse-se
nóshospedássemo-nos
vóshospedásseis-vos
vocêshospedassem-se
eles/elashospedassem-se

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
tuhospeda-te
vocêhospede-se
ele/elahospede-se
nóshospedemo-nos
vóshospedai-vos
vocêshospedem-se
eles/elashospedem-se

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 te hospedes
vocênão se hospede
ele/elanão se hospede
nósnão nos hospedemos
vósnão vos hospedeis
