Essential Question: How do I say that multiple people did something in the PAST in Spanish?
Ejemplo: Hablar – to talk / speak Drop the –ar and add the correct ending: -amos Nosotros -asteisVosotros -aronEllos, ellas, ustedes Nosotros hablamos = we spoke
Ejemplo: Barrer – to sweep Describir – to describe Drop the –er/-ir and add: -imos Nosotros -isteis Vosotros -ieron Ellos, ellas, ustedes Ellos describieron = They described Nosotros describimos = We described
The verb ‘ir’ means to go has an irregular conjugation in the preterite. Nosotros fuimos = We went Vosotros fuisteis = You went Ellos(as)/Ustedes fueron = They went Ejemplo= Ellos fueron al estadio. They went to the stadium.
The verb hacer is also irregular when conjugated in the preterite tense. Nosotros hicimos – We did / We made Vosotros hicisteis – You did / You made Ellos(as)/Ustedes hicieron– They did / They made Ejemplo: Nosotros hicimos la tarea. ¿Hicieron ellos ejercicio? Ellas hicieron el proyecto. * How is hacer irregular in the 3 rd person singular form?
