Enjuiciar conjugation
Table of Contents
Enjuiciar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to judge, indict”.
Below are all of the conjugations for enjuiciar 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.

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

Enjuiciar 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.
Enjuiciar 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 judge” or “they judge”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | enjuicio |
| Tú | enjuicias |
| Él / Ella / Usted | enjuicia |
| Nosotros / as | enjuiciamos |
| Vosotros / as | enjuiciáis |

Enjuiciar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I judged” or “she judged” 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 | enjuicié | I judged |
| Tú | enjuiciaste | You judged |
| Él / Ella / Usted | enjuició | He / she / you judged |
| Nosotros / as | enjuiciamos | We judged |
| Vosotros / as | enjuiciasteis | You judged |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | enjuiciaron | They / you judged |
| Vos | enjuiciaste | You judged |
Enjuiciar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was judging” or “she was judging” 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 | enjuiciaba | I was judging |
| Tú | enjuiciabas | You were judging |
| Él / Ella / Usted | enjuiciaba | He was / she was / you were judging |
| Nosotros / as | enjuiciábamos | We were judging |
| Vosotros / as | enjuiciabais | You were judging |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | enjuiciaban | They / you were judging |
| Vos | enjuiciabas | You were judging |
Enjuiciar 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 judged” and “she has judged”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he enjuiciado | I have judged |
| Tú | has enjuiciado | You have judged |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha enjuiciado | He has / she has / you have judged |
| Nosotros / as | hemos enjuiciado | We have judged |
| Vosotros / as | habéis enjuiciado | You have judged |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | han enjuiciado | They / you have judged |
| Vos | has enjuiciado | You have judged |
Enjuiciar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would judge” or “she would judge”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | enjuiciaría | I would judge |
| Tú | enjuiciarías | You would judge |
| Él / Ella / Usted | enjuiciaría | He / she / you would judge |
| Nosotros / as | enjuiciaríamos | We would judge |
| Vosotros / as | enjuiciaríais | You would judge |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | enjuiciarían | They / you would judge |
| Vos | enjuiciarías | You would judge |
Enjuiciar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will judge” or “they will judge”.
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 enjuiciar” means “They are going to judge”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | enjuiciaré | I will judge |
| Tú | enjuiciarás | You will judge |
| Él / Ella / Usted | enjuiciará | He / she / you will judge |
