requirí

requirí is a Spanish verb, the first-person singular preterite indicative form of the verb requerir. Requerir generally translates to "to require," "to need," "to request," or "to ask for." Therefore, "requirí" specifically means "I required," "I needed," "I requested," or "I asked for" in a past, completed action.

This verb conjugation is used to describe a personal action in the past. For example, one might say "Requerí su ayuda" which means "I required their help." The context of the sentence would determine the precise nuance of "requerir." It can imply a strong necessity or a more formal solicitation. The preterite tense is used for actions that have a definite beginning and end in the past.

The verb requerir itself is derived from the Latin word requirere, meaning "to seek after" or "to ask for." Its usage spans various contexts, from everyday needs to formal demands or legal stipulations. The first-person singular preterite form, requirí, is common in personal narratives and historical accounts where an individual is describing their past actions or circumstances.
