Exhibir conjugation
Table of Contents
Exhibir is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to exhibit, show display”.
Below are all of the conjugations for exhibir 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.

The past participle (participio) is used with perfect tense ‘haber’ verbs, e.g. he exhibido and hubiera exhibido. These are the equivalent of English’s ‘have’ (e.g. have exhibited).

| Yo | he exhibido | I have exhibited |
| Tú | has exhibido | You have exhibited |
