Enfadarse conjugation
Table of Contents
Enfadarse is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to get mad, anger”.
It’s a reflexive verb, which means the subject performs the action upon themselves – e.g. “I wake myself”.
Reflexive verbs always carry a reflexive pronoun – me, te, se, nos or os – which is often placed before the conjugated verb (e.g. me enfado) or after the infinitive (e.g. Él tiene que enfadarse).
Below are all of the conjugations for enfadarse 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.

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

Your simple past tense, e.g. “I got mad” or “she got mad” 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.

Enfadarse Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was getting mad” or “she was getting mad” 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 | me enfadaba | I was getting mad |
| Tú | te enfadabas | You were getting mad |

Enfadarse 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 gotten mad” and “she has gotten mad”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | me he enfadado | I have gotten mad |
| Tú | te has enfadado | You have gotten mad |
| Él / Ella / Usted | se ha enfadado | He has / she has / you have gotten mad |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | se han enfadado | They / you have gotten mad |
| Vos | te has enfadado | You have gotten mad |
Enfadarse Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would get mad” or “she would get mad”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.

Enfadarse Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will get mad” or “they will get mad”.
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 enfadarse” means “They are going to get mad”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |

| Tú | te enfadarás | You will get mad |
