#1 Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto is a compound tense (Spanish: compuesto). It means that all of its inflected forms consist of two words. In Spanish language, there are also simple tenses, where each conjugated 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:
  • A conjugated 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 Refer to 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 are focusing on the parts derived from permitir only in this lesson.
#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 begin by splitting the infinitive into a stem and an ending. It’s really easy to do – just remove two letters from the end of the infinitive form to get the ending – one of -ar, -er, -ir. What’s left is the stem.
#5 So in case of the verb permitir it’s easy to see that:
  • the stem is: permit-
  • and the ending is: -ir
#6 Based on the ending of the infinitive we can tell that permitir belongs to the -ir verb group. This group, in turn, uses the -ido ending in its Participio form. Putting all that together, our Participio is: permitido.

And now, as we understand how both parts used by this tense are created separately, we can proceed 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. And to that we add the Participio permitido to get he permitido:
  • yo he permitido
#8 Next, to create the form for the second person singular, we again need to take the second person singular form of haber from the Presente de Indicativo tense, and it is has. To this auxiliary verb we add the Participio permitido (so the exact same word as previously) to get has permitido:
  • tú has permitido
#9 Similarly, if we want to create the form for the third person singular, we conjugate haber in the Presente tense and we utilize 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 permitido:
  • él ha permitido
  • ella ha permitido
  • usted ha permitido
#10 The first person plural has the form hemos permitido. 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 permitir: permitido to get hemos permitido:
  • nosotros hemos permitido
  • nosotras hemos permitido
#11 Again, let’s do the same for the second person plural. We have to get the inflected form of the verb haber in the Presente de Indicativo tense, second person plural, and it is habéis. Next, we take our unchanged Participio, we join them, and we get habéis permitido:
  • vosotros habéis permitido
  • vosotras habéis permitido
#12 And finally, the last grammatical person on the list, the third person plural, has the form han permitido. 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 permitir again (permitido) to get han permitido:
  • ellos han permitido
  • ellas han permitido
  • ustedes han permitido
