remolcaste

Remolcaste is a verb form in Spanish. It is the second-person singular pretérito indefinido (pretérito simple) of the verb remolcar, meaning you towed or you hauled. The verb remolcar is regular -ar and describes moving a vehicle or object by towing it, typically using a tow hitch or similar equipment.

Conjugation: The preterite forms for remolcar are: yo remolqué, tú remolcaste, él remolcó, nosotros remolcamos, vosotros remolcasteis, ellos remolcaron. The tú form remolcaste ends without an accent, while the third-person singular remolcó carries an accent to indicate the stressed syllable. The yo form remolqué has a spelling change to preserve the hard /k/ sound.

Usage: Remolcaste is used to recount a completed towing action in the past. For ongoing or habitual past actions, other tenses are used, such as the imperfect remolcabas or the conditional remolcarías. Example sentences include: "Anoche remolcaste mi coche al taller." or "¿Con qué coche remolcaste el barco?" In automotive, nautical, and logistics contexts, remolcar refers to towing trailers, boats, or disabled vehicles.

Variants and related terms: The noun remolque refers to the tow or trailer itself. Related verbs include tirar de and arrastrar, which convey pulling or dragging in broader contexts. Remolcar can also appear in reflexive or passive constructions when describing towing actions involving absence of the actor.
