intervengo

Intervengo is the first‑person singular present indicative form of the Spanish verb intervenir, which means “to intervene,” “to take part,” or “to become involved.” The verb is derived from the Latin intervenire and is regular in its conjugation within the -ir group, following the pattern: yo intervengo, tú intervienes, él/ella interviene, nosotros/nosotras intervenimos, vosotros/vosotras intervenís, ellos/ellas intervienen. The form intervengo is used when the speaker refers to their own action of intervening in a situation, discussion, or process.

In practical usage, intervengo often appears in contexts such as political discourse (e.g., “Yo intervengo en el debate para aportar una perspectiva diferente”), legal settings (e.g., “El juez interviene para garantizar el cumplimiento de la ley”), and everyday conversation (e.g., “Intervengo cuando veo que alguien necesita ayuda”). The verb can also be employed reflexively as intervenirse, though this construction is less common. Related nouns include intervención (“intervention”) and interveniente (“intervener”). The term appears in various idiomatic expressions, such as “intervenir en la vida de alguien” (to get involved in someone's life) and “intervenir de manera extraordinaria” (to intervene in an extraordinary manner).
