Anular conjugation
Table of Contents
Anular is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to annul, void”.
Below are all of the conjugations for anular 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.

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

Anular Presente / Present

| Vos | anulaste | You annulled |
Anular Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto

| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | anulaba | I was annulling |
| Tú | anulabas | You were annulling |

In English, these use the auxiliary verbs ‘have’ and ‘has’ – i.e. “I have annulled” and “she has annulled”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he anulado | I have annulled |
| Tú | has anulado | You have annulled |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha anulado | He has / she has / you have annulled |
