Today we are happy add to SpanishDict, drum roll please, a Spanish verb conjugator! The tool will conjugate any Spanish verb, including over 1,000 irregular verbs. We’ve tried to make it as easy to use as possible. You can receive all the conjugations on a single page when you are on the conjugation tool. We also setup a nifty feature that will show you simple verb conjugations directly on the dictionary search results when you search for a verb (see here: tener) .
Try kicking the tires on the new tool by putting in a few Spanish verbs and let us know what you think. Post your suggestions and feedback in the comments below.
Hope you like it!
