Agitar conjugation
Table of Contents
Agitar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to agitate, shake, stir”.
Below are all of the conjugations for agitar in Spanish, in all three moods (indicative/indicativo, subjunctive/subjunctivo and imperative/imperativo) and all of the tenses, for each pronoun.
The vosotros pronoun is mainly used in mainland Spain, and is the informal second-person plural – it could be considered the Spanish version of “y’all”. It is rarely found in Latin America, where ustedes is used instead.
The vos form is used instead of tú in some Spanish speaking countries of South America, especially the Southern Cone (e.g. Argentina and Uruguay) and has a different conjugation.

Agitar Gerund and Past Participle
The gerund (gerundio) is used with the continuous tenses, e.g. present continuous (está agitando) and past continuous (estaba agitando). The easiest way to think of it is the equivalent of english’s -ing form (e.g. agitating).
The past participle (participio) is used with perfect tense ‘haber’ verbs, e.g. he agitado and hubiera agitado. These are the equivalent of English’s ‘have’ (e.g. have agitated).

Agitar Indicative Conjugations
The basic form of speech, el indicativo is used for making statements, talking about facts, events and things that are certain and objective.
Agitar Presente / Present
The present tense is as it sounds – it’s for talking about things that are currently going on, which are habitual, or which generally exist. In English, this would be “I agitate” or “they agitate”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |

| Yo | agito |
| Tú | agitas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | agita |
| Nosotros / as | agitamos |
| Vosotros / as | agitáis |

Agitar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I agitated” or “she agitated” in English.
In Spanish, there are two past tenses where just one is used in English; the pretérite infefinido is typically used to refer to a concrete, specific moment in time.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |

| Tú | agitaste | You agitated |
| Él / Ella / Usted | agitó | He / she / you agitated |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | agitaron | They / you agitated |
| Vos | agitaste | You agitated |
Agitar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was agitating” or “she was agitating” in English, and is typically used to describe things and set a scene, talk about events without a specific timeframe, or talk about habitual events or states in the past.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | agitaba | I was agitating |
| Tú | agitabas | You were agitating |
| Él / Ella / Usted | agitaba | He was / she was / you were agitating |

Agitar Perfect / Perfecto
The perfect tense is for talking about things which happened in the past but are still related to the present or continue into the present.
In English, these use the auxiliary verbs ‘have’ and ‘has’ – i.e. “I have agitated” and “she has agitated”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he agitado | I have agitated |
| Tú | has agitado | You have agitated |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha agitado | He has / she has / you have agitated |

The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would agitate” or “she would agitate”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | agitaría | I would agitate |

It is more commonly used for making a hypothesis about the present. To talk about the future, Spanish speakers frequently use “ir + a + infinivo”, e.g. “van a agitar” means “They are going to agitate”.
