Hola. Your question is a little unclear. Could you clarify?

I'm going to try to answer your question as best as I can.

Why don't conjugate verbs in the past tense?

You actually do conjugate verbs in the past tense. There are two ways to express the past in Spanish...you can use the preterit or the imperfect. Why do you say the past tense is not used very often? I think it is used very frequently.

Answer 2

Los tiempos son difíciles. Básicamente para me....como te enseñan aquí en el foro.

I will see you soon. Te veré pronto. El futuro.

I saw you yesterday. Te vi ayer. El pasado. O posible te había visto ayer. I had seen you yesterday.

I would see you if I could. Vería si pudiera. El condicional.

I hope to see soon. Espero que te veas pronto. El subjuntivo porque se expresa dudo.

English: will, would, should, could son palabras diferentes en inglés que se expresa en español con solamente solo un verbo. La belleza de la lengua española.

No sé mucho pero espero que esto te ayuda.
