#1 Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto is a compound tense (Spanish: compuesto). It means that all of its conjugated forms consist of two words. In Spanish language, there are also simple tenses, where each inflected verb form is one word long.
A compound tense is indicated by the ending of the auxiliary verb, not by the ending of the main verb, which is the case in Spanish simple tenses.

#2 In the compound tenses, every person’s form consist of two parts:
- An inflected form of the auxiliary verb haber. In case of the Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto de Indicativo tense, we use the Presente de Indicativo (Present) conjugation of haber
- Past Participle, which is always the same in every compound tense for a given verb
#3 See the conjugation charts and this haber conjugation lesson to learn how to conjugate the auxiliary verb haber. That’s a separate topic, so for brevity we’re focusing on the parts derived from odiar only here.
#4 In order to create the Participio form, we need a stem and an ending. We use the stem of the infinitive of the main verb, and a single ending, which depends on the conjugation group of the main verb. So we need to start by splitting the infinitive into a stem and an ending. It’s easy to do – simply remove two letters from the end of the infinitive and you have the ending – one of -ar, -er, -ir. What’s left is the stem.
#5 So for our verb:
- the stem is: odi-
- and the ending is: -ar
#6 Based on the ending of the infinitive we can tell that odiar belongs to the -ar verb group. This group, in turn, uses the -ado ending in its Participio form. Putting all that together, our Participio is: odiado.
And now, as we understand how both parts used by this tense are created separately, we can move on with creating the final conjugation forms.

#7 In order to create the first person singular form, we simply take the first person singular form of haber conjugated in Presente de Indicativo, which is he. To that we add the Participio odiado to get he odiado:
- yo he odiado
#8 Next, to create the form for the second person singular, we again simply take the second person singular form of haber from the Presente de Indicativo tense, and it is has. And to this auxiliary verb we add the Participio odiado (so the exact same word as previously) to get has odiado:
- tú has odiado
#9 Similarly, if we want to create the form for the third person singular, we conjugate haber in the Presente tense and we use the corresponding person’s form (third person singular), namely ha. Then we also take the same Participio as for all other persons, and putting them together we get ha odiado:
- él ha odiado
- ella ha odiado
- usted ha odiado
#10 The first person plural has the form hemos odiado. It’s created by following the same logic as in the other persons. We first take the form of the first person plural from haber conjugation in the Presente de Indicativo tense: hemos. Second, and to this word we again add the Participio of odiar: odiado to get hemos odiado:
- nosotros hemos odiado
- nosotras hemos odiado
#11 Again, let’s do the same for the second person plural. We need to get the inflected form of the verb haber in the Presente de Indicativo tense, second person plural, and that’s habéis. Next, we take our unchanged Participio, we join them, and we get habéis odiado:
- vosotros habéis odiado
- vosotras habéis odiado
#12 And finally, the last grammatical person on the list, the third person plural, has the form han odiado. We create it in the exact same manner as in all the other grammatical persons. We need the third person plural of haber first, from its Presente conjugation. It is han. We add the Participio of odiar again (odiado) to get han odiado:
- ellos han odiado
- ellas han odiado
- ustedes han odiado
