Random Spanish Verbs

How this list was compiled: Common Spanish verbs chosen for this site, with the meanings in our own words. Each verb was checked on 2026-10-15 in its Spanish entry on English Wiktionary (https://en.wiktionary.org/, text under CC BY-SA 4.0): that it is a verb, that the meaning on the card is one the entry gives, and the forms the card names (the two present-tense forms, a preterite, a past participle), which are read from the conjugation table of that entry. The groups follow that table and Wikipedia's article on Spanish irregular verbs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_irregular_verbs, read the same day). A verb is under Irregular when the first-listed forms of its table break the regular pattern in the yo form, the preterite, the future or the past participle, or when its yo form ends in -zco. It is under Stem-changing when only its stem vowel alternates (e to ie, o to ue, e to i, u to ue, i to ie). Every other verb is under Regular, including the verbs that change a spelling letter to keep a sound (protejo, venzo) or take a written accent (envío), which the article does not count as irregular. Verbs in -uir (construir) are left out because the two sources do not settle their group. Elegir, freír, imprimir, pagar and apagar have a second, irregular past participle in the table and are filed by the first. A reflexive verb is filed by the pattern of the verb it comes from. The vos forms of the tables are left off the cards. For every sense of a verb, see the Real Academia dictionary at https://dle.rae.es; this list was not checked against it. Licence: own work
