Auxiliary verb used in perfect tenses avoir avere haver haber ter

 

The periphrastic past in Catalan is an alternative to the preterite. It is formed by using anar as an auxiliary verb followed by the infinitive.

vaig veure
vas veure
va veure
vam veure
vau veure
van veure

There is an alternative form of the imperfect subjunctive in Spanish, which is more similar to Portuguese. Simply replace -ra- with -se- for all conjugations:

viera / viese
vieras / vieses
viera / viese
viéramos / viésemos
vierais / vieseis
vieran / viesen

The future subjunctive is only used in formal or literary Spanish, but it is easy to conjugate since it is nearly identical to the imperfect subjunctive forms. The future subjunctive in Portuguese is very common and the same endings are used for the personal infinitive (see below).

Spanish Portuguese
viere vir
vieres vires
viere vir
viéremos virmos
viereis virdes
vieren virem

The personal infinitive in Portuguese uses the infinitive as the stem + the endings of the future subjunctive.

vir
vires
vir
virmos
virdes
virem

There is an alternative form of the past perfect in Portugueuse which only uses one word rather than an auxiliary verb + past participle. These conjugations are quite similar to the imperfect subjunctive conjugations using -ra- in Spanish. However, this simple form is only used in formal or literary Portuguese. (Note that the imperfect subjunctive in Spanish using -ra- can also be used in formal or literary language as an alternative to the compound past perfect.)

vira
viras
vira
víramos
víreis
viram
