Mood Explanations

Spanish has three moods: indicative, subjunctive, and imperative. If you're not sure what those words mean, you can click on the mood label above the conjugation charts, which will take you to a page in our grammar section. 

At the top of the resulting page, you'll see a list of interactive lessons related to that mood. If you scroll down on that page, you'll see a written explanation that guides you through the mood and how to use it. 

Tense Explanations

There are a variety of tenses in Spanish, including the present, preterite, imperfect, and future.

When you want a quick reference for a specific tense, you can hover your mouse over the name of the tense above a conjugation chart to reveal a short explanation and an example of how it is used in Spanish and English. The example sentence will not necessarily reflect the specific verb you are looking at, but it will give you a sense of how the tense functions grammatically.
