Atropellar conjugation
Table of Contents
Atropellar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to trample down, run over, knock down”.
Below are all of the conjugations for atropellar 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.

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

| Pronoun | Spanish | English |

Atropellar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was running over” or “she was running over” 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 | atropellaba | I was running over |
| Tú | atropellabas | You were running over |

Atropellar 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 run over” and “she has run over”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he atropellado | I have run over |
| Tú | has atropellado | You have run over |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha atropellado | He has / she has / you have run over |

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

The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will run over” or “they will run over”.
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 atropellar” means “They are going to run over”.

| Tú | atropellarás | You will run over |
