Using Cuando

Question

Do you conjugate the verb after cuando? For example, if I were to say "When I walk," would I say it as:

1. Cuando caminar or
2. Cuando camino?

2. Cuando camino! - Pablo04, May 20, 2012

Answer 1

Yes you conjugate it and if you're talking about something you do habitually you would use the present tense as Pablo recommended but there is also the possibility of other tenses being needed. For example if you were referring to something in the future that hasn't happened yet you would need the present subjunctive after cuando.

Cuando termines la tarea iremos al parque. (you haven't done your homework yet)
When you finish the homework, we'll go the park.

Answer 2

Thank you!
