This page continues the exploration of tiempos verbales en español by introducing the near future tense and the present perfect tense. It also provides a detailed conjugation table for each tense, making it an excellent resource for ejercicios de español para extranjeros (Spanish exercises for foreigners).
The near future tense is used to describe what you are going to do in the immediate future. It's formed using the present tense of the verb "ir" (to go), followed by "a" and the infinitive of the main verb.
Example: "Voy a comer" means "I am going to eat."
The present perfect tense is used for past actions that are connected to the present. It's formed by conjugating the auxiliary verb "haber" in the present tense and adding the past participle of the main verb.
Highlight: The past participle is formed by adding -ado to AR verbs and -ido to ER and IR verbs.
The conjugation tables provided on this page are invaluable for ejercicios B2 español (B2 level Spanish exercises) and can be used to create ejercicios de español para imprimir (printable Spanish exercises).
Vocabulary: "Conjugation" refers to the variation of the form of a verb in an inflected language such as Spanish.
This page, combined with the previous one, offers a comprehensive overview of todos los tiempos verbales en español (all Spanish verb tenses) covered in this guide. It's an excellent resource for those wondering ¿Cómo explicar los tiempos verbales en español? (How to explain Spanish verb tenses?) and can be used to create a tiempos verbales en español tabla (Spanish verb tenses table) for easy reference.
This page provides an in-depth overview of six essential tiempos verbales en español (Spanish verb tenses), including their formation rules and usage. The tenses covered are the present, imperfect, preterite, conditional, and simple future.
The present tense is used for current actions, habitual actions, and facts. To form it, you need to find the infinitive, remove the -AR, -ER, or -IR ending, and add the correct endings based on the subject pronoun.
Example: For the verb "comer" (to eat), the present tense conjugation for "I eat" would be "como".
The imperfect tense is used for descriptions in the past, habitual actions in the past, and to express "used to" or "was doing" something. Its formation follows a similar pattern to the present tense, but with different endings.
Highlight: The imperfect tense is particularly useful for setting the scene in past narratives or describing ongoing states in the past.
The preterite tense is used for completed actions in the past, especially when there's a specific time mentioned. It has its own set of endings that are added to the verb stem.
Vocabulary: "Preterite" comes from the Latin word "praeteritus," meaning "gone by" or "past."
The conditional tense expresses probability, possibility, or actions that "would" happen. It's formed by adding specific endings directly to the infinitive form of the verb.
Definition: The conditional tense is used to talk about hypothetical situations or to make polite requests.
The simple future tense is used for actions that will happen in the future. Like the conditional, it's formed by adding endings directly to the infinitive.
Quote: "El futuro pertenece a quienes creen en la belleza de sus sueños." - Eleanor Roosevelt

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
