Frequency#1232Regular

Indicative

Present (Presente) Regular

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) Regular

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.

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
euurinava
tuurinavas
vocêurinava
ele/elaurinava
nósurinávamos
vósurináveis

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

tuurinariasyou would urinate

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
euurinareiI will urinate
tuurinarásyou will urinate

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 urinadoI have urinated
tutens urinadoyou have urinated
vocêtem urinadoyou have urinated

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 urinadoI had urinated
tutinhas urinadoyou had urinated
vocêtinha urinadoyou had urinated
ele/elatinha urinadohe/she/it had urinated

vóstínheis urinadoyou (pl.) had urinated
vocêstinham urinadoyou (pl.) had urinated
eles/elastinham urinadothey had urinated

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

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 urinadoI will have urinated
tuterás urinadoyou will have urinated
vocêterá urinadoyou will have urinated
ele/elaterá urinadohe/she/it will have urinated

vóstereis urinadoyou (pl.) will have urinated
vocêsterão urinadoyou (pl.) will have urinated
eles/elasterão urinadothey will have urinated

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
euurine
tuurines
vocêurine
ele/elaurine
nósurinemos
vósurineis
vocêsurinem
eles/elasurinem

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
euurinasse
tuurinasses
vocêurinasse
ele/elaurinasse
nósurinássemos
vósurinásseis
vocêsurinassem
eles/elasurinassem

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
tuurina
vocêurine
ele/elaurine
nósurinemos
vósurinai
vocêsurinem
eles/elasurinem

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 urines
vocênão urine
ele/elanão urine
nósnão urinemos
vósnão urineis
