Asediar conjugation
Table of Contents
Asediar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to pester, harass”.
Below are all of the conjugations for asediar 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.

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

Asediar Presente / Present

Your simple past tense, e.g. “I pestered” or “she pestered” 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 |

Asediar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was pestering” or “she was pestering” 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 | asediaba | I was pestering |
| Tú | asediabas | You were pestering |

Asediar 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 pestered” and “she has pestered”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he asediado | I have pestered |
| Tú | has asediado | You have pestered |

Asediar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would pester” or “she would pester”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.

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

| Tú | asediarás | You will pester |
