Editar conjugation
Table of Contents
Editar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to publish”.
Below are all of the conjugations for editar 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.
Editar Infinitive

|---|---|
| Spanish Infinitive | editar |
Editar Gerund and Past Participle
The gerund (gerundio) is used with the continuous tenses, e.g. present continuous (está editando) and past continuous (estaba editando). The easiest way to think of it is the equivalent of english’s -ing form (e.g. publishing).
The past participle (participio) is used with perfect tense ‘haber’ verbs, e.g. he editado and hubiera editado. These are the equivalent of English’s ‘have’ (e.g. have published).
| Gerundio / Gerund | editando |
|---|---|
| Participio / Past Participle | editado |
Editar 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.
Editar 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 publish” or “they publish”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | edito |
| Tú | editas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | edita |
| Nosotros / as | editamos |
| Vosotros / as | editáis |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | editan |
| Vos | editás |
Editar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I published” or “she published” 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 | edité | I published |
| Tú | editaste | You published |
| Él / Ella / Usted | editó | He / she / you published |
| Nosotros / as | editamos | We published |
| Vosotros / as | editasteis | You published |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | editaron | They / you published |
| Vos | editaste | You published |
Editar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was publishing” or “she was publishing” 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 | editaba | I was publishing |
| Tú | editabas | You were publishing |
| Él / Ella / Usted | editaba | He was / she was / you were publishing |
| Nosotros / as | editábamos | We were publishing |
| Vosotros / as | editabais | You were publishing |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | editaban | They / you were publishing |
| Vos | editabas | You were publishing |
Editar 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 published” and “she has published”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he editado | I have published |
| Tú | has editado | You have published |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha editado | He has / she has / you have published |
| Nosotros / as | hemos editado | We have published |
| Vosotros / as | habéis editado | You have published |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | han editado | They / you have published |
| Vos | has editado | You have published |
Editar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would publish” or “she would publish”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | editaría | I would publish |
| Tú | editarías | You would publish |
| Él / Ella / Usted | editaría | He / she / you would publish |
| Nosotros / as | editaríamos | We would publish |
| Vosotros / as | editaríais | You would publish |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | editarían | They / you would publish |
| Vos | editarías | You would publish |
Editar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will publish” or “they will publish”.
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 editar” means “They are going to publish”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | editaré | I will publish |
| Tú | editarás | You will publish |
| Él / Ella / Usted | editará | He / she / you will publish |
| Nosotros / as | editaremos | We will publish |
