Update in Spanish: Verb“To update” in Spanish as a verb has many connotations and each applies to different contexts. Some synonyms in English exist such as “to modernize,” “to renovate,” andto fill in,” which we can use as a guide here. Actualizar – to actualizeActualizar is a verb in Spanish that means to update something related to work or technology. Here are the 3 most common conjugations for you to keep in mind: Present simple YoactualizoTúactualizasÉl, ella, ustedactualizaNosotrosactualizamosEllos, ellas, ustedesactualizanEllos actualizan la presentación antes de entregarla. They update the presentation before delivering it.

Future Simple YoactualizaréTúactualizarásÉl, ella, ustedactualizaráNosotrosactualizaremosEllos, ellas, ustedesactualizaránUsted actualizará el software para no tener problemas.You will update the software to avoid problems. Ponerse al día – to bring up to dateYou can ponerse al día a person, yourself, or a plan. It can translate to “to bring up to date” or help someone “catch up”. This is a reflexive verb, and needs a reflexive pronoun—me, te, se, nos—around it. Present simple: Bringing yourself up to date YoMe pongo al díaTúTe pones al díaÉl, ella, ustedSe pone al díaNosotrosNos ponemos al díaEllos, ellas, ustedesSe ponen al díaNosotros nos ponemos al día todas las mañanas.We update ourselves every morning. Present Simple: Bringing others up to date Yo (a ti)Te pongo al díaYo (a él, ella usted)Lo pongo al díaYo (a ellos)Los pongo al díaYo te pongo al día en persona porque es más fácil. I will update you in person because it is easier. Informar – to informThe verb informar is a bit formal and it is best used in professional environments. You can inform your boss or a board in a written or spoken way. Since you or your team will be informing someone else I am including two charts of the present simple tense so you can inform individually or as a group.
