Arrullar conjugation
Table of Contents
Arrullar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to lull or sing to sleep”.
Below are all of the conjugations for arrullar 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.

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

Arrullar 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.
Arrullar 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 lull” or “they lull”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | arrullo |
| Tú | arrullas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrulla |
| Nosotros / as | arrullamos |
| Vosotros / as | arrulláis |

Arrullar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I lulled” or “she lulled” 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 | arrullé | I lulled |
| Tú | arrullaste | You lulled |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrulló | He / she / you lulled |

| Vosotros / as | arrullasteis | You lulled |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | arrullaron | They / you lulled |
| Vos | arrullaste | You lulled |
Arrullar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was lulling” or “she was lulling” 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 | arrullaba | I was lulling |
| Tú | arrullabas | You were lulling |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrullaba | He was / she was / you were lulling |
| Nosotros / as | arrullábamos | We were lulling |
| Vosotros / as | arrullabais | You were lulling |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | arrullaban | They / you were lulling |
| Vos | arrullabas | You were lulling |
Arrullar 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 lulled” and “she has lulled”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he arrullado | I have lulled |
| Tú | has arrullado | You have lulled |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha arrullado | He has / she has / you have lulled |
| Nosotros / as | hemos arrullado | We have lulled |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | han arrullado | They / you have lulled |
| Vos | has arrullado | You have lulled |
Arrullar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would lull” or “she would lull”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | arrullaría | I would lull |
| Tú | arrullarías | You would lull |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrullaría | He / she / you would lull |

| Vos | arrullarías | You would lull |
Arrullar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will lull” or “they will lull”.
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 arrullar” means “They are going to lull”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | arrullaré | I will lull |
| Tú | arrullarás | You will lull |
| Él / Ella / Usted | arrullará | He / she / you will lull |
