Hidratar conjugation
Table of Contents
Hidratar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to hydrate”.
Below are all of the conjugations for hidratar 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.

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

Hidratar 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.
Hidratar 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 hydrate” or “they hydrate”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | hidrato |
| Tú | hidratas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | hidrata |
| Nosotros / as | hidratamos |
| Vosotros / as | hidratáis |

Hidratar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I hydrate” or “she hydrate” 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 | hidraté | I hydrate |
| Tú | hidrataste | You hydrate |
| Él / Ella / Usted | hidrató | He / she / you hydrate |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | hidrataron | They / you hydrate |
| Vos | hidrataste | You hydrate |
Hidratar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was hydrated” or “she was hydrated” 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 | hidrataba | I was hydrated |
| Tú | hidratabas | You were hydrated |

In English, these use the auxiliary verbs ‘have’ and ‘has’ – i.e. “I have hydrating” and “she has hydrating”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he hydrated | I have hydrating |
| Tú | has hydrated | You have hydrating |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha hydrated | He has / she has / you have hydrating |
