Existe otra opción. To Duel means in spanish "Batirse en duelo". wink

Some examples:

Me estoy batiendo en duelo. (first person singular)

Te estás batiendo en duelo. (second person singular)

......

Se están batiendo en duelo. (third person plural)

Duelo is a noun. There is no verb form that means to duel. There are some phrases that mean to duel, however, like batirse en duelo. The endings for forming the present participle (gerundio) are ando and iendo so, "duelendo" is not correct.

Don't get the word duelo and duele, etc. from the verb doler(se) mixed up with this context. They have nothing to do with dueling.

"to duel."...................... In Spanish duelo is an irregular verb. I can not conjugate this. This is wrong....... Yo duelo .......ellos duelen.........nosotros duelemos..... Like I say this is wrong. I would use the word combatir.... combatiendo.........
