About Galician Conjugation
Galician Verb Conjugation
Galician verbs follow three conjugation patterns (-ar, -er, -ir) with roots firmly in Vulgar Latin. The language shares much of its verb morphology with Portuguese, from which it historically diverged, making cross-comprehension between the two relatively straightforward.
Personal Infinitive: Like Portuguese, Galician possesses the personal infinitive (infinitivo conxugado) — an infinitive form that takes personal endings. This allows constructions like "Para nós sabermos" (For us to know) that other Romance languages must express with subordinate clauses.
Preserved Latin Features: Galician retains the synthetic pluperfect indicative directly from Latin, a tense form that has been lost in most other Romance languages except Portuguese. This gives Galician a rich set of simple (non-compound) tenses.
