Although the “Spine” or “Preterite” tense is used frequently, with “have” verbs it isn’t so common. It is much more common to use “back” or “imperfect” have verbs for communicating past tense. The implied meaning is the same as the Spine or Preterite tense. Examples would be “I had eaten” and “She had studied”. Here’s how to conjugate them: First you conjugate “haber” or “have” in the “Back” or “Imperfect” tense:

Have Verbs + Back

Haber (had)

había habíamos
habías habíais
había habían

Then you put the appropriate “a-d-o” or “i-d-o” ending on the verbs.

A few examples are:

She had spoken (Ella hablar) Había hablado
I had eaten (Yo comer) Había comido
We had washed our hands (nosotros) Nos habíamos lavado las manos

Next we’ll cover “have” verbs using “would” or the “conditional” tense. Examples of this tense are: “I would have eaten” or “She would have studied”. First you conjugate “haber” or “have” in the “would” or “conditional” tense:

Have Verbs + Would

Haber (would have)

habría habríamos
habrías habríais
habría habrían

ar verb stem +ado
OR
er/ir verb stem +ido

Then you put the appropriate “a-d-o” or “i-d-o” ending on the verbs.

A few examples are:

She would have spoken (Ella hablar) Habría hablado
I would have eaten (Yo comer) Habría comido
We would have washed our hands (nosotros) Nos habríamos lavado las manos

Finally in this lesson we’ll cover future “have” verbs. Examples of this tense are. “I will have eaten” or “She will have studied”. First you conjugate “haber” or “have” in the “will” or “future” tense:

Have Verbs + Will

Haber (will have)

habré habremos
habrás habréis
habrá habrán

ar verb stem +ado
OR
er/ir verb stem +ido

Then you put the appropriate “a-d-o” or “i-d-o” ending on the verbs.
