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 sacio
te sacias
voste saciás
él/ella/Ud.se sacia
nosotrosnos saciamos
vosotrosos saciáis
ellos/ellas/Uds.se sacian

Preterite (Pretérito indefinido) Regular

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 sacié
te saciaste
voste saciaste
él/ella/Ud.se sació
nosotrosnos saciamos
vosotrosos saciasteis
ellos/ellas/Uds.se saciaron

Imperfect (Pretérito imperfecto) Regular

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 saciaba
te saciabas
voste saciabas
él/ella/Ud.se saciaba
nosotrosnos saciábamos
vosotrosos saciabais

Expresses hypothetical actions, polite requests, and what would happen under certain conditions. Also used for reported speech about the future from a past perspective.

te saciarías
voste saciarías
él/ella/Ud.se saciaría
nosotrosnos saciaríamos
vosotrosos saciaríais
ellos/ellas/Uds.se saciarían

Future (Futuro) Regular

Expresses future actions, predictions, and probability about the present. Formed with the full infinitive as stem for most verbs. In spoken Spanish, ir a + infinitive is often preferred for near future.

Present perfect (Pretérito perfecto) Regular

A compound past tense linking a past action to the present moment — something that has happened and still feels recent or relevant. More common in Spain than Latin America where preterite is preferred.

Hoy he hablado con el jefe — Today I have spoken with the boss

PronounSpanish
yome he saciado
te has saciado
voste has saciado
él/ella/Ud.se ha saciado
nosotrosnos hemos saciado
