¿Conoces bien tu pasado? El Imperfecto Chapter 7

We generalize and say that the Imperfect is used to talk about what you use to do and what you were like as a child. It is used to describe things in the past. We will use the acronym MUDHAT to help us know when to use it.

¿Cuando lo usamos? When do we use it?

M:Mental States: Physical Estaba enferma. I was sick. Estabamos contentos. We were happy. Emotional Pensar (to think) or Creer (to believe). Pienso que ella estaba loca.

U: USE TO In English, the Imperfect translates to “use to” or “would”. Cuando era niña miraba Sesame Street con mi hermano. When I was a little girl, I use to watch Sesame Street with my brother.

D:Description: (SER) Description Mi abuela era bonita y delgada. Bob Espoja era comico y bajo. La casa era bonita y grande.

H: Habitual (repeated)actions Actions that were repeated habitually in the past. (todos los dias, meses, veranos, viernes etc.) Ibamos a Ocean City todos los veranos. We use to go to OC every summer.

A: Age Use the verb: TENER She was five years old. Ella tenía cinco años

T: Telling time It was 7 pm. Eran las siete de la noche.

In summary: Use the Imperfect when…. any type of describing is being done in the past….whether it is the time, age, what is going on in the background, how someone is feeling, or what something/someone looks like.
