THERE ARE 22 TENSES.

MODO INDICATIVO

presente digo...

pretérito dije...

futuro diré...

antepresente he dicho...

antepretérito hube dicho...

antefuturo habré dicho...

copretérito decía ...

antecopretérito había dicho ...

(Formas condicionales)

MODO SUBJUNTIVO

presente diga...

pretérito dijera...

futuro dijere...

antepresente haya dicho...

antepretérito hubiera dicho...

antefuturo hubiere dicho...

imperativo di...

Formas impersonales

infinitivo decir

infinitivo compuesto haber dicho

gerundio diciendo

gerundio compuesto habiendo dicho

participio dicho

Forms such as "está comiendo", "estuvo comiendo"..., are not real tenses in Spanish, they are just part of gerund. And most of the time they are replaced by the conjugation in Present or "copretérito" (imperfect past).

However, in English they are:

  1. Simple Present
  2. Present Progressive
  3. Simple Past
  4. Past Progressive
  5. Present Perfect Simple
  6. Present Perfect Progressive
  7. Past Perfect Simple
  8. Past Perfect Progressive
  9. Future I Simple
  10. Future I Simple (going to)
  11. Future I Progressive
  12. Future II Simple
  13. Future II Progressive
  14. Conditional I Simple
  15. Conditional I Progressive
  16. Conditional II Simple
  17. Conditional II Progressive
