disfrutaron

Disfrutaron is a Spanish verb form that corresponds to the preterite tense of disfrutar, meaning “to enjoy.” It is the third-person plural form, used with subjects such as ellos, ellas, or ustedes, to indicate that they enjoyed something in the past. Depending on the dialect, it can also serve as the past tense for “you all” (ustedes) in Latin American varieties.

In the preterite, disfrutar follows a regular -ar verb pattern. The full paradigm is: disfruté, disfrutaste, disfrutó, disfrutamos, disfrutasteis, disfrutaron. Therefore, disfrutan in the present becomes disfrutaron in the past for he/she/they or you all.

Disfrutaron is typically used to describe completed past experiences or events in which someone derived pleasure or satisfaction from an activity, object, or situation. It is commonly followed by a noun or a prepositional phrase with de, to indicate what was enjoyed: disfrutan de la música, or in the past: disfrutaron de la película, del viaje, o del concierto. In some regional varieties, it is also acceptable to omit de and say disfrutaron la película, though formally with disfrutar suele usarse con de.

Notes: disfruto, disfrutas, disfruta, disfrutamos, disfrutáis, disfrutan are related forms in present or other tenses. The term is widely used in both Spain and Latin America to convey that a past experience was pleasant. Pronunciation typically rendered as dis-froo-TA-ron in standard Spanish.
