Indicative

Present (Presente) Regular

The present tense is the most versatile tense in Spanish. It covers actions happening right now, habitual actions, and even near-future plans. One form does the work of three English constructions.

Ella habla inglés — She speaks / is speaking English

PronounSpanish
yome horrorizo
te horrorizas
voste horrorizás
él/ella/Ud.se horroriza
nosotrosnos horrorizamos
vosotrosos horrorizáis
ellos/ellas/Uds.se horrorizan

Preterite (Pretérito indefinido) Irregular

Used for completed past actions with a defined endpoint — a single event, a series of events, or an action that interrupted another. Common with time expressions like ayer, el lunes, una vez.

Ella habló de ti ayer — She spoke about you yesterday

PronounSpanish
yome horroricé
te horrorizaste
voste horrorizaste
él/ella/Ud.se horrorizó
nosotrosnos horrorizamos
vosotrosos horrorizasteis
ellos/ellas/Uds.se horrorizaron

Describes ongoing or habitual past states — what things were like, background context, what used to happen. Contrasts with the preterite which marks completed events.

Cuando era niño vivía en Valencia — When I was a child I lived in Valencia

PronounSpanish
yome horrorizaba

voste horrorizabas
él/ella/Ud.se horrorizaba
