nosotros/nosotras | hubiéremos muerto |
vosotros/vosotras | hubiereis muerto |
ellos/ellas/ustedes | hubieren muerto |
Step by step instructions
Futuro Perfecto 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 inflected verb form is one word long. In a compound tense the endings of the auxiliary verb change, not the endings of the main verb, which is the case in Spanish simple tenses. In the compound tenses, every person’s form consist of two parts:

See the conjugation charts 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 morir only here. This verb has an irregular Participle which needs to be memorized. It is muerto. |
In order to create the first person singular form, we need to take the first person singular form of haber conjugated in Futuro de Subjuntivo, which is hubiere. And to that we add the Participio muerto to get hubiere muerto:
Next, to create the form for the second person singular, we again need to take the second person singular form of haber from the Futuro de Subjuntivo tense, and that is hubieres. And to this auxiliary verb we add the Participio muerto (so the exact same word as previously) to get hubieres muerto:
|
Similarly, if we want to create the form for the third person singular, we conjugate haber in the Futuro tense and we utilize the corresponding person’s form (third person singular), namely hubiere. Then we also take the same Participio as for all other persons, and putting them together we get hubiere muerto:
The first person plural has the form hubiéremos muerto. 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 Futuro de Subjuntivo tense: hubiéremos. Second, and to this word we again add the Participio of morir: muerto to get hubiéremos muerto:
|
Again, let’s do the same for the second person plural. We have to get the inflected form of the verb haber in the Futuro de Subjuntivo tense, second person plural, and that’s hubiereis. Next, we take the unchanged Participio, we join them, and we get hubiereis muerto:
And finally, the last grammatical person on the list, the third person plural, has the form hubieren muerto. 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 Futuro conjugation. It is hubieren. We add the Participio of morir again (muerto) to get hubieren muerto:

That’s it! The conjugation is now done. But don’t end your session yet – it is very important to repeat and practice the material in order to retain it. Check below for suggestions.
