Between certain places, however, they are used as synonyms. In nonstandard usage, traer may be conjugated like crujir or caer in the preterite (trají, trajiste(s), trajió, trajimos, trajisteis, trajieron), (traí, traíste(s), trayó, traímos, traísteis, trayeron), and the imperfect subjunctive (yo trajiera, yo trajiese, yo trayera, yo trayese, etc.). In dialectal usage, the preterite and imperfect subjunctive may be conjugated as in classical Spanish (truje, etc., and trujera, etc., respectively). This may occur in Chilean dialects. ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== ==== Related terms ==== ==== See also ==== cargar acarrear === References === === Further reading === “traer”, in Diccionario de la lengua española [Dictionary of the Spanish Language] (in Spanish), online version 23.8.1, Royal Spanish Academy [Spanish: Real Academia Española], 15 December 2025
