Entreabrir conjugation
Table of Contents
Entreabrir is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to open slightly, set ajar”.
Below are all of the conjugations for entreabrir 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.

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

Entreabrir 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.
Entreabrir 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 open slightly” or “they open slightly”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | entreabro |
| Tú | entreabres |
| Él / Ella / Usted | entreabre |
| Nosotros / as | entreabrimos |

Entreabrir Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I opened slightly” or “she opened slightly” 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 | entreabrí | I opened slightly |
| Tú | entreabriste | You opened slightly |
| Él / Ella / Usted | entreabrió | He / she / you opened slightly |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | entreabrieron | They / you opened slightly |
| Vos | entreabriste | You opened slightly |
Entreabrir Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was opening slightly” or “she was opening slightly” 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 | entreabría | I was opening slightly |
| Tú | entreabrías | You were opening slightly |
| Él / Ella / Usted | entreabría | He was / she was / you were opening slightly |

| Vos | entreabrías | You were opening slightly |
Entreabrir 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 opened slightly” and “she has opened slightly”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he entreabrido | I have opened slightly |
| Tú | has entreabrido | You have opened slightly |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha entreabrido | He has / she has / you have opened slightly |
| Nosotros / as | hemos entreabrido | We have opened slightly |

| Vos | has entreabrido | You have opened slightly |
Entreabrir Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would open slightly” or “she would open slightly”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | entreabriría | I would open slightly |
| Tú | entreabrirías | You would open slightly |
| Él / Ella / Usted | entreabriría | He / she / you would open slightly |

Entreabrir Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will open slightly” or “they will open slightly”.
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 entreabrir” means “They are going to open slightly”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | entreabriré | I will open slightly |
| Tú | entreabrirás | You will open slightly |
