In this paper we introduce a new conjugating tool which generates and analyses both existing verbs and verb neologisms in Spanish. This application of finite state transducers is based on novel linguistically motivated morphological rules describing the verbal paradigm. Given that these transducers are simpler than the ones created in previous developments and are easy to learn and remember, the method can also be employed as a pedagogic tool in itself. A comparative evaluation of the tool against other online conjugators demonstrates its efficacy.
