inscribió

Inscribió is a form of the Spanish verb inscribir. It represents the preterite indicative, third-person singular (él, ella, or usted), meaning that someone registered, enrolled, or signed up for something in the past. It is commonly used to indicate that a name or entry was written on a list or record.

Etymology and related forms: inscribir comes from Latin inscribere, formed from in- “into” or “on” plus scribere “to write.” Related nouns include inscripción (inscription, registration) and inscribirse (to enroll or sign up oneself). The participle inscripto or inscrito is used in some contexts to mean “registered.”

Usage: inscribió is used in contexts such as enrolling in courses, competitions, or programs, and can also appear in more formal registries. It typically takes a direct object specifying what was inscribed, for example, inscribió su nombre en la lista, inscribió a su hijo en la escuela, or inscribió su participación en el concurso. The corresponding reflexive form inscribirse is used when the subject enrolls themselves.

Conjugation notes: inscribir is a regular -ir verb in the preterite, so inscribió follows the standard endings for él/ella/usted in the past tense. Other forms include inscribí (yo), inscribiste (tú), inscribimos (nosotros), inscribisteis (vosotros), e inscribieron (ellos/ellas/ustedes).
