Transcripción de la presentación:

El Imperfecto – In this presentation, we will look at another way of talking about the past.

Remember this? We’ve already learned one way of talking about the past: the preterite. It’s used to describe single actions that started and ended in the past. Examples: Ellos tomaron el examen el lunes pasado. Gabriela recibió la mejor nota. El año pasado, fui a Costa Rica. Pedro se levantó, fue al baño, y se duchó.

What about…. … actions that happen more than once in the past What about…? … actions that happen more than once in the past? I used to live in Chicago. Every Christmas the whole family would get together for a big dinner.

Or how about…? … actions that started in the past but didn’t finish (as far as we know): I was walking to work when I saw an accident. She was tired and hungry.

The imperfect These ideas – -actions repeated in the past -unfinished actions in the past -descriptions about the past are expressed using a different verb tense, called the “imperfect.”

Uses of the imperfect Use the imperfect to express actions, conditions, and events that: *were in progress at some time in the past (“was …ing”). Ej. Ella estaba leyendo el libro. *occurred repeatedly in the past (“used to” or “would”). Ej. Cada domingo, caminábamos en el parque.

Simultaneous activities. Ej *Simultaneous activities Ej. Yo limpiaba mi cuarto mientras mi padre barría el piso. *It is also use to describe time / weather/ age Ej. Cuando tenía quince años… Hacía buen tiempo ayer. Eran las ocho…

Palabras Claves (Key Words) How do you know when to use the imperfect? Here are some key words to look for  Todos los días Los lunes Siempre Generalmente A menudo Mientras Cada día De vez en cuando Muchas veces

Let’s try a few forms. Estar:. yo. _________. tú. _________. ella Let’s try a few forms! Estar: yo _________ tú _________ ella _________ nosotros _________ vosotros _________ ellos _________

Estar… yo estaba tú estabas ella estaba nosotros estábamos vosotros estabais ellos estaban How about volver?

Volver…. yo volvía. tú volvías. ella volvía. nosotros volvíamos Volver… yo volvía tú volvías ella volvía nosotros volvíamos vosotros volvíais ellos volvían Volver is a stem-changing verb in the present, but stem-changing verbs don’t change in the imperfect! How about decir?

Decir…. yo decía. tú decías. ella decía. nosotros decíamos Decir… yo decía tú decías ella decía nosotros decíamos vosotros decíais ellos decían Decir is stem-changing and irregular in both the present and the preterite, but it’s regular in the imperfect! How about levantarse???

Levantarse…. yo me levantaba. tú te levantabas. ella se levantaba Levantarse… yo me levantaba tú te levantabas ella se levantaba nosotros nos levantábamos vosotros os levantabais ellos se levantaban Reflexive verbs work the same as in the present – don’t forget to put the reflexive pronoun in front of the verb!
