The Spanish verb sentir means primarily “to feel.” It can also mean “to regret” (as in Lo siento = “I’m sorry”) and is commonly used reflexively as sentirse (“to feel” in the sense of one’s state or emotion).

Below are the main conjugations (indicative, subjunctive, imperative) and non‑finite forms. Sentir is an irregular -ir verb: e → ie in most present forms (except nosotros/vosotros) and e → i in the preterite third persons and in the present participle.

Non‑finite forms
- Infinitive: sentir — to feel / to regret
- Gerund: sintiendo — feeling
- Past participle: sentido — felt

Indicative
- Present: siento, sientes, siente, sentimos, sentís, sienten — I feel, you feel, he/she feels, we feel, you(pl) feel, they feel
- Preterite (simple past): sentí, sentiste, sintió, sentimos, sentisteis, sintieron — I felt, you felt, he/she felt, …
- Imperfect: sentía, sentías, sentía, sentíamos, sentíais, sentían — was feeling / used to feel
- Future: sentiré, sentirás, sentirá, sentiremos, sentiréis, sentirán — will feel
- Conditional: sentiría, sentirías, sentiría, sentiríamos, sentiríais, sentirían — would feel

Subjunctive
- Present: sienta, sientas, sienta, sintamos, sintáis, sientan — (that) I feel / you feel / etc.

(or) sintiese, sintieses, sintiese, sintiésemos, sintieseis, sintiesen

Imperative (commands)
