IMPERFECTO O PRETERITO  You’ve probably realized that Spanish has lots of tricky “pairs”:  Ser/estar  Por/para  Masculine/feminine  Here’s another one:  Preterite/imperfect

¿Pretérito o imperfecto?  Spanish has two basic ways to talk about the past:  Preterite  Imperfect  In this slide show, we’ll look at some the differences in how each tense in used.

Pretérito  Let’s review some of the main uses of the preterite. This verb tense is used when:  we talk about a past action that happened one time OR  interrupted something already going on OR  was the beginning of an event OR  was the end of an event.

Pretérito  Past actions that happened once. Ejemplos :  Juan se levantó a las 6:00.  Gloria llegó tarde a clase.  ¿Hiciste la tarea? Interruptions: El teléfono sonó [rang] mientras [while] yo dormía.

Pretérito  The beginning of an event:  Cristóbal Colón llegó a las Américas en  La película empezó a las 3:00. The end of an event: Terminé el proyecto a la medianoche. Los Osos de Chicago ganaron el campeonato de fútbol americano.

Imperfecto NNext let’s review some of the main uses of the imperfect. This verb tense is used when we talk about a past action that hhappened many times OR wwas in progress (“was …ing”) OR ddescribed a condition.

 Repeated or habitual actions in the past  Repeated or habitual actions in the past :  Don Diego comía pizza los domingos.  Cuando yo tenía 15 años, vivía en Miami. Past action in progress: A las 3:00, los estudiantes escuchaban mientras la profesora hablaba. El teléfono sonó [rang] mientras [while] yo dormía. ¿Qué hacías ayer a las 4:00?

Imperfecto  Description of a condition  Here’s an acronym to help you organize descriptions in the past:  AL WEPT

AL WEPT  A: age, attitude, appearance  Cuando yo tenía 15 años…  …no me gustaba comer zanahorias.  De niña, Marta era muy alta.

AL WEPT  L: location  La chica acampaba en el bosque.

AL WEPT  W: weather  Hacía muy mal tiempo durante mis vacaciones.

AL WEPT  E: emotions  La niña estaba triste porque no sabía donde estaba su gato.

AL WEPT  P: physical attributes  Mi padre era muy alto y mi madre era muy baja.

AL WEPT  T: time  Eran las 5:00 y todos teníamos mucha hambre.

¡VAMOS A PRACTICAR! ¿ Pretérito o imperfecto?  Fueron / Eran las diez de la mañana y hizo / hacía buen tiempo.  Lita se despertó/despertaba a las seis de la mañana.  Fue/era una fiesta de sorpresa.  Ella fue/era joven y bonita.

¡Más práctica, por favor!  Los niños jugaron/jugaban al fútbol en el parque.  Su madre leía/leyó una novela debajo de un árbol.  De pronto, uno de los niños se caía/cayó [fell], se golpeaba/golpeó [hit] la cabeza, y empezaba/empezó a llorar.

Uno más…  Una noche yo dormía/dormí como un tronco [like a log] cuando sonaba/sonó el teléfono.  Me levantaba/levanté, iba/fui a la sala de estar, y descolgaba/descolgué [picked up] el teléfono.

Por último…  Preterite  one-time past event OR  interruption OR  the beginning or end of an event.  Imperfect  Repeated/habitual past action OR  was in progress (“was …ing”) OR  described a condition.
