Burbujear conjugation
Table of Contents
Burbujear is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to bubble”.
Below are all of the conjugations for burbujear in Spanish, in all three moods (indicative/indicativo, subjunctive/subjunctivo and imperative/imperativo) and all of the tenses, for each pronoun.
