The past tense, or verbs in past tense, are those verbs located in a time before the Present. For example: fell, you've gone, we were.

Past tenses are always linked to a point on the timeline prior to the one being spoken. In Spanish, it is undoubtedly the past tense that offers the greatest number of expressive alternatives.

Verbs conjugated in the past tense are present in the mode indicative and in the subjunctive, with five shapes in the first and three in the second, between simple and compound shapes.
