The Imperfect Tense: Regular Verbs and irregular verbs

Preterite  You have already learned to talk about the past using the preterite tense for actions that began and ended at a definite time.

Preterite  Ana cantó en la fiesta anoche.  Ana sang at the party last night.  (Completed past action.)

Imperfect  The imperfect tense is another way to talk about the past. We use it to describe actions without any indication of their beginning or end.

Imperfect  Ana cantaba.  Ana used to sing.  (No indication of beginning or end.)

Imperfect  We use the imperfect to talk about actions that happened repeatedly in the past. In English we often say “used to” or “would” to express this idea.

Imperfect  Generalmente caminaban mucho.  Generally they would walk a lot.

Imperfect  Jugaban con otros niños de la familia.  They used to play with other children in the family.

We always use the imperfect when talking in the past about:  -physical descriptions: era traviesa  -age: Tenía ocho años cuando...  -weather: Hacía mucho calor  -telling time: Eran las diez y media de la mañana  -setting the scene: Había mucha gente  -verbs of thought and emotion:  Estaba contenta

JUGAR (to play) Yo jugaba Tú jugabas Él Ella jugaba Ud. Nosotros jugábamos Vosotros. jugabais Ellos Ellas jugaban Uds.

 All AR VERBS are regular in the imperfect tense  Since the yo and the Ud./él/ella forms are the same, we often use the subject pronouns to avoid confusion.  The nosotros form of –AR verbs in the imperfect tense has an accent mark. Imperfect
