Correr conjugation
Table of Contents
Correr is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to run”.
Below are all of the conjugations for correr 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.

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

Correr 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.
Correr 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 run” or “they run”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | corro |
| Tú | corres |
| Él / Ella / Usted | corre |
| Nosotros / as | corremos |
| Vosotros / as | corréis |

Correr Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I ran” or “she ran” 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 | corrí | I ran |
| Tú | corriste | You ran |
| Él / Ella / Usted | corrió | He / she / you ran |
| Nosotros / as | corrimos | We ran |
| Vosotros / as | corristeis | You ran |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | corrieron | They / you ran |
| Vos | corriste | You ran |
Correr Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was running” or “she was running” 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 | corría | I was running |
| Tú | corrías | You were running |
| Él / Ella / Usted | corría | He was / she was / you were running |
| Nosotros / as | corríamos | We were running |
| Vosotros / as | corríais | You were running |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | corrían | They / you were running |
| Vos | corrías | You were running |
Correr 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” and “she has run”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he corrido | I have run |
| Tú | has corrido | You have run |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha corrido | He has / she has / you have run |
| Nosotros / as | hemos corrido | We have run |
| Vosotros / as | habéis corrido | You have run |

|---|---|---|
| Yo | correría | I would run |
| Tú | correrías | You would run |
| Él / Ella / Usted | correría | He / she / you would run |

Correr Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will run” or “they will run”.
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 correr” means “They are going to run”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | correré | I will run |
| Tú | correrás | You will run |
