Conjugation of anar (first conjugation, auxiliary)

Usage Notes
The second set of conjugations are used along with the infinitive of another verb in order to form the "periphrastic past" (passat perifràstic), an analytical construction equivalent in terms of tense and aspect to the simple preterite. For example, vaig cantar bears the same meaning as cantí ('I sang').

The indicative forms of the auxiliary may be reinforced with -re- from the equivalent typical first-conjugation simple preterite endings. For example, vares anar may be used instead of vas anar but not *vareig anar instead of vaig anar; compare the typical second-person singular ending -ares with its first-person singular equivalent -í. The subjunctive forms are literary and only sporadically occur; the imperfect subjunctive forms of the verb to be conjugated are normally used instead.
