Haría

Haría is the Spanish verb form of hacer in the conditional mood. It is used to express hypothetical actions or polite requests and can correspond to the first person singular (yo haría) as well as the third person singular (él/ella/usted haría), with the subject determined by the surrounding context. The full set of corresponding endings for the conditional is haría, harías, haría, haríamos, haríais, harían.

The form is built on the stem har-, which is an irregular stem for the verb hacer in the future and conditional tenses. This irregular stem is shared across all persons, producing haría for the first and third person singular in the present conditional, and haré/harás/hará/haremos/haréis/harán in the related future forms.

Common uses include stating what would happen under certain conditions, making polite requests, or describing hypothetical situations. Examples: “Si tuviera más tiempo, haría ejercicio todos los días” (If I had more time, I would exercise every day); “Haría falta más información para completar el informe” (More information would be needed to complete the report); “Haría cualquier cosa por ti” (I would do anything for you).

Notes on nuance: haría often appears in conditional clauses introduced by si or in impersonal constructions like haría falta. In everyday speech, it signals unreal or uncertain circumstances, rather than a definite action in the present. The form is a standard component of Spanish verb conjugation and is contrasted with the simple present, past tenses, and the future forms of hacer.
