Aceleraron

Aceleraron is the third-person plural preterite indicative form of the Spanish verb acelerar, meaning to accelerate or to speed up. It is used to describe a completed action in the past performed by ellos, ellas, or ustedes, and appears in narratives, reports, and everyday speech.

As a regular -ar verb, acelerar follows the standard preterite endings: yo aceleré, tú aceleraste, él/ella/usted aceleró, nosotros aceleramos, vosotros acelerasteis, ellos/ellas/ustedes aceleraron.

Etymology: acelerar derives from Latin accelerare, formed from ad- (toward) and celer (swift). The form aceleraron does not add lexical meaning beyond the past-tense conjugation; it marks that the subject completed the action of speeding up.

Usage examples: Aceleraron can describe engines, vehicles, or people increasing speed, often in narrative or journalistic contexts. Examples: "Los coches aceleraron al salir de la ciudad." "El equipo aceleró su paso para alcanzar a los líderes." In contrast to the preterite, other tenses like aceleraba (imperfect) or acelerarán (future) convey different aspect or time frames.
