Delinear conjugation
Table of Contents
Delinear is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to draw, delineate, design”.
Below are all of the conjugations for delinear 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.

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

Delinear 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.
Delinear 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 draw” or “they draw”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | delineo |
| Tú | delineas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | delinea |
| Nosotros / as | delineamos |
| Vosotros / as | delineáis |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | delinean |

Delinear Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I drew” or “she drew” 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 | delineé | I drew |
| Tú | delineaste | You drew |
| Él / Ella / Usted | delineó | He / she / you drew |
| Nosotros / as | delineamos | We drew |
| Vosotros / as | delineasteis | You drew |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | delinearon | They / you drew |
| Vos | delineaste | You drew |
Delinear Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was drawing” or “she was drawing” 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 | delineaba | I was drawing |
| Tú | delineabas | You were drawing |
| Él / Ella / Usted | delineaba | He was / she was / you were drawing |
| Nosotros / as | delineábamos | We were drawing |
| Vosotros / as | delineabais | You were drawing |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | delineaban | They / you were drawing |
| Vos | delineabas | You were drawing |
Delinear 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 drawn” and “she has drawn”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he delineado | I have drawn |
| Tú | has delineado | You have drawn |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha delineado | He has / she has / you have drawn |
| Nosotros / as | hemos delineado | We have drawn |

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

| Vosotros / as | delinearíais | You would draw |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | delinearían | They / you would draw |
| Vos | delinearías | You would draw |
Delinear Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will draw” or “they will draw”.
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 delinear” means “They are going to draw”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | delinearé | I will draw |
| Tú | delinearás | You will draw |
| Él / Ella / Usted | delineará | He / she / you will draw |
