suspendí

Suspendí is a Spanish verb meaning "I failed" or "I suspended" in the context of an exam or course. It is the first-person singular preterite indicative form of the verb suspender. The preterite tense is used to describe completed actions in the past. Therefore, "suspendí" indicates a specific instance in the past where the speaker did not pass a test or academic requirement.

The verb suspender itself can also mean to suspend in other contexts, such as suspending a person from a job or a vehicle from being driven. However, when used in relation to academic performance, "suspender" specifically refers to failing. Common phrases include "suspendí el examen" (I failed the exam) or "suspendí la asignatura" (I failed the subject/course). This term is widely used in educational settings throughout the Spanish-speaking world. The opposite of "suspendí" would be "aprobé," meaning "I passed."
