Indemnizar conjugation
Table of Contents
Indemnizar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to indemnify, compensate”.
Below are all of the conjugations for indemnizar 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.

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

Indemnizar 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.
Indemnizar 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 indemnify” or “they indemnify”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |

| Yo | indemnizo |
| Tú | indemnizas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | indemniza |
| Nosotros / as | indemnizamos |

Indemnizar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I indemnified” or “she indemnified” 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 | indemnicé | I indemnified |
| Tú | indemnizaste | You indemnified |
| Él / Ella / Usted | indemnizó | He / she / you indemnified |

| Vosotros / as | indemnizasteis | You indemnified |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | indemnizaron | They / you indemnified |
| Vos | indemnizaste | You indemnified |
Indemnizar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was indemnifying” or “she was indemnifying” 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 | indemnizaba | I was indemnifying |
| Tú | indemnizabas | You were indemnifying |
| Él / Ella / Usted | indemnizaba | He was / she was / you were indemnifying |

| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | indemnizaban | They / you were indemnifying |
| Vos | indemnizabas | You were indemnifying |
Indemnizar 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 indemnified” and “she has indemnified”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he indemnizado | I have indemnified |
| Tú | has indemnizado | You have indemnified |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha indemnizado | He has / she has / you have indemnified |
| Nosotros / as | hemos indemnizado | We have indemnified |

| Vos | has indemnizado | You have indemnified |
Indemnizar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would indemnify” or “she would indemnify”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | indemnizaría | I would indemnify |
| Tú | indemnizarías | You would indemnify |
| Él / Ella / Usted | indemnizaría | He / she / you would indemnify |

| Vosotros / as | indemnizaríais | You would indemnify |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | indemnizarían | They / you would indemnify |

Indemnizar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will indemnify” or “they will indemnify”.
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 indemnizar” means “They are going to indemnify”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | indemnizaré | I will indemnify |
| Tú | indemnizarás | You will indemnify |
| Él / Ella / Usted | indemnizará | He / she / you will indemnify |
