Arrendar conjugation
Table of Contents
Arrendar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to rent, lease”.
Below are all of the conjugations for arrendar 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.

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

Arrendar 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.
Arrendar 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 rent” or “they rent”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | arriendo |
| Tú | arriendas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrienda |
| Nosotros / as | arrendamos |
| Vosotros / as | arrendáis |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | arriendan |

Arrendar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I rented” or “she rented” 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | arrendé | I rented |
| Tú | arrendaste | You rented |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrendó | He / she / you rented |
| Nosotros / as | arrendamos | We rented |
| Vosotros / as | arrendasteis | You rented |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | arrendaron | They / you rented |
| Vos | arrendaste | You rented |
Arrendar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was renting” or “she was renting” 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 | arrendaba | I was renting |
| Tú | arrendabas | You were renting |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrendaba | He was / she was / you were renting |
| Nosotros / as | arrendábamos | We were renting |
| Vosotros / as | arrendabais | You were renting |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | arrendaban | They / you were renting |
| Vos | arrendabas | You were renting |
Arrendar 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 rented” and “she has rented”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he arrendado | I have rented |
| Tú | has arrendado | You have rented |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha arrendado | He has / she has / you have rented |
| Nosotros / as | hemos arrendado | We have rented |

The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would rent” or “she would rent”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | arrendaría | I would rent |
| Tú | arrendarías | You would rent |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrendaría | He / she / you would rent |
| Nosotros / as | arrendaríamos | We would rent |
| Vosotros / as | arrendaríais | You would rent |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | arrendarían | They / you would rent |
| Vos | arrendarías | You would rent |
Arrendar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will rent” or “they will rent”.
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 arrendar” means “They are going to rent”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | arrendaré | I will rent |
| Tú | arrendarás | You will rent |
