Denunciar conjugation
Table of Contents
Denunciar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to denounce, censure, accuse”.
Below are all of the conjugations for denunciar 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.

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

Denunciar 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.
Denunciar 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 denounce” or “they denounce”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | denuncio |
| Tú | denuncias |
| Él / Ella / Usted | denuncia |
| Nosotros / as | denunciamos |
| Vosotros / as | denunciáis |

Denunciar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I denounced” or “she denounced” 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 | denuncié | I denounced |
| Tú | denunciaste | You denounced |
| Él / Ella / Usted | denunció | He / she / you denounced |
| Nosotros / as | denunciamos | We denounced |
| Vosotros / as | denunciasteis | You denounced |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | denunciaron | They / you denounced |
| Vos | denunciaste | You denounced |
Denunciar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was denouncing” or “she was denouncing” 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 | denunciaba | I was denouncing |
| Tú | denunciabas | You were denouncing |
| Él / Ella / Usted | denunciaba | He was / she was / you were denouncing |
| Nosotros / as | denunciábamos | We were denouncing |
| Vosotros / as | denunciabais | You were denouncing |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | denunciaban | They / you were denouncing |
| Vos | denunciabas | You were denouncing |
Denunciar 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 denounced” and “she has denounced”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he denunciado | I have denounced |
| Tú | has denunciado | You have denounced |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha denunciado | He has / she has / you have denounced |

The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would denounce” or “she would denounce”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | denunciaría | I would denounce |
| Tú | denunciarías | You would denounce |
| Él / Ella / Usted | denunciaría | He / she / you would denounce |
| Nosotros / as | denunciaríamos | We would denounce |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | denunciarían | They / you would denounce |
| Vos | denunciarías | You would denounce |
Denunciar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will denounce” or “they will denounce”.
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 denunciar” means “They are going to denounce”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |

| Yo | denunciaré | I will denounce |
| Tú | denunciarás | You will denounce |
