Izar conjugation
Table of Contents
Izar is a Spanish verb which translates into English as “to hoist”.
Below are all of the conjugations for izar 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.
Izar Infinitive
| English Infinitive | to hoist |
|---|---|
| Spanish Infinitive | izar |
Izar Gerund and Past Participle
The gerund (gerundio) is used with the continuous tenses, e.g. present continuous (está izando) and past continuous (estaba izando). The easiest way to think of it is the equivalent of english’s -ing form (e.g. hoisting).
The past participle (participio) is used with perfect tense ‘haber’ verbs, e.g. he izado and hubiera izado. These are the equivalent of English’s ‘have’ (e.g. have hoisted).
| Gerundio / Gerund | izando |
|---|---|
| Participio / Past Participle | izado |
Izar 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.
Izar 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 hoist” or “they hoist”.
| Pronoun | Spanish |
|---|---|
| Yo | izo |
| Tú | izas |
| Él / Ella / Usted | iza |
| Nosotros / as | izamos |
| Vosotros / as | izáis |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | izan |
| Vos | izás |
Izar Preterite / Pretérito Indefinido
Your simple past tense, e.g. “I hoisted” or “she hoisted” 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 | icé | I hoisted |
| Tú | izaste | You hoisted |
| Él / Ella / Usted | izó | He / she / you hoisted |
| Nosotros / as | izamos | We hoisted |
| Vosotros / as | izasteis | You hoisted |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | izaron | They / you hoisted |
| Vos | izaste | You hoisted |
Izar Imperfect / Pretérito Imperfecto
The pretérito imperfecto roughly translates as “I was hoisting” or “she was hoisting” 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 | izaba | I was hoisting |
| Tú | izabas | You were hoisting |
| Él / Ella / Usted | izaba | He was / she was / you were hoisting |
| Nosotros / as | izábamos | We were hoisting |
| Vosotros / as | izabais | You were hoisting |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | izaban | They / you were hoisting |
| Vos | izabas | You were hoisting |
Izar 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 hoisted” and “she has hoisted”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | he izado | I have hoisted |
| Tú | has izado | You have hoisted |
| Él / Ella / Usted | ha izado | He has / she has / you have hoisted |
| Nosotros / as | hemos izado | We have hoisted |
| Vosotros / as | habéis izado | You have hoisted |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | han izado | They / you have hoisted |
| Vos | has izado | You have hoisted |
Izar Conditional / Condicional
The conditional is used in place of the English modal verb “would”, i.e. “I would hoist” or “she would hoist”. It can be used to talk about hypothetical situations.
| Pronoun | Spanish | Englush |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | izaría | I would hoist |
| Tú | izarías | You would hoist |
| Él / Ella / Usted | izaría | He / she / you would hoist |
| Nosotros / as | izaríamos | We would hoist |
| Vosotros / as | izaríais | You would hoist |
| Ellos / Ellas / Ustedes | izarían | They / you would hoist |
| Vos | izarías | You would hoist |
Izar Future / Futuro
The future tense, simply put, replaces the English modal verb “will” – i.e. “I will hoist” or “they will hoist”.
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 izar” means “They are going to hoist”.
| Pronoun | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| Yo | izaré | I will hoist |
| Tú | izarás | You will hoist |
| Él / Ella / Usted | izará | He / she / you will hoist |
| Nosotros / as | izaremos | We will hoist |
