Hornear conjugation
Table of Contents
Hornear is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to bake”.
Below are all of the conjugations for hornear 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.

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

Hornear 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.
Hornear 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 bake” or “they bake”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | horneo |
| Tú | horneas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | hornea |
| Nosotros / as | horneamos |
| Vosotros / as | horneáis |

Hornear Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I bake” or “she bake” 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 | horneé | I bake |
| Tú | horneaste | You bake |
| Él / Ella / Usted | horneó | He / she / you bake |
| Nosotros / as | horneamos | We bake |
| Vosotros / as | horneasteis | You bake |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | hornearon | They / you bake |
| Vos | horneaste | You bake |
Hornear Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was baked” or “she was baked” 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 | horneaba | I was baked |
| Tú | horneabas | You were baked |
| Él / Ella / Usted | horneaba | He was / she was / you were baked |
| Nosotros / as | horneábamos | We were baked |
| Vosotros / as | horneabais | You were baked |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | horneaban | They / you were baked |
| Vos | horneabas | You were baked |
Hornear 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 baking” and “she has baking”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he baked | I have baking |
| Tú | has baked | You have baking |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha baked | He has / she has / you have baking |
| Nosotros / as | hemos baked | We have baking |

The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would bake” or “she would bake”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | hornearía | I would bake |
| Tú | hornearías | You would bake |
| Él / Ella / Usted | hornearía | He / she / you would bake |
| Nosotros / as | hornearíamos | We would bake |
| Vosotros / as | hornearíais | You would bake |

| Vos | hornearías | You would bake |
Hornear Future / Futuro

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 hornear” means “They are going to bake”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | hornearé | I will bake |
| Tú | hornearás | You will bake |
