Arropar conjugation
Table of Contents
Arropar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to clothe, wrap up”.
Below are all of the conjugations for arropar 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.

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

Arropar Presente / Present

| Él / Ella / Usted | arropa |
| Nosotros / as | arropamos |

Your simple past tense, e.g. “I wrapped up” or “she wrapped up” 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 |
|---|---|---|

| Vos | arropaste | You wrapped up |
Arropar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was wrapping up” or “she was wrapping up” 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 | arropaba | I was wrapping up |
| Tú | arropabas | You were wrapping up |

Arropar 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 wrapped up” and “she has wrapped up”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he arropado | I have wrapped up |
| Tú | has arropado | You have wrapped up |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha arropado | He has / she has / you have wrapped up |

Arropar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would wrap up” or “she would wrap up”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |

Arropar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will wrap up” or “they will wrap up”.
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 arropar” means “They are going to wrap up”.

| Yo | arroparé | I will wrap up |
| Tú | arroparás | You will wrap up |
