Verbs
In Spanish verbs are generally conjugated to reflect three different
aspects: subjects, tenses, and moods. Subject
pronouns may exist in the singular or the plural, and may be in
the first person (yo, and nosotros/nosotras), the
second person (tú, usted, vosotros, and
ustedes), or the third person (él/ella and
ellos/ellas). Tenses include various
forms of the present, past, future, and conditional. The term
"mood" refers to the way verb forms
reflect the attitude of the speaker toward her or his subject. In
Spanish, the mood of a verb is either indicative or subjunctive.
