Transcripción de la presentación:

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: Tomaron el examen el lunes pasado. Gabriela recibió la mejor nota de todos los estudiantes. El año pasado, fui a Costa Rica de vacaciones. Lo pasé muy bien. Pedro se levantó, fue al baño, y se duchó.

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

What about…? 1. … actions that happen more than once in the past? I used to live in Peoria. Every Christmas the whole family would get together for a big dinner. 2. … 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.

Or how about…? 3. to express actions, conditions, and events that:  were in progress at some time in the past (“was …ing”).  occurred repeatedly in the past (“used to” or “would”).  were anticipated or planned (“was going to”). *information is general without specifics details - dates, times, etc

The imperfect These ideas – actions repeated in the past unfinished actions in the past descriptions about the past information is general without specifics details - dates, times, etc are expressed using a different verb tense, called the “imperfect.” Think about it: “perfect” means “complete,” so when a past action is incomplete, it is “imperfect.”

Frases que indica(indicate) el imperfecto Generalmente - generally Por lo general – in general A menudo = often Muchas veces = many times De vez en cuando = once in a while Todos los días = every day Nunca = never Cuando era niño = when I was a child De niño / de pequeño = as a child

OK, what are the forms? Finally! The imperfect tense is probably the easiest form to learn because there are only three irregulars. There are two sets of endings…

Las terminaciones -ar abaábamos abasabais abaaban er/ir ía íamos ías íais ía ían

Some examples, please! hablarcantar hablabacantaba hablabascantabas hablabacantaba hablábamoscantábamos Hablabaiscantabais hablabancantaban

How about for –ER & -IR? comervivir comía vivía comías vivías comía vivía comíamosvivíamos Comíaisvivíais comían vivían

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

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

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

Conocer… yo conocía tú conocías ella conocía nosotros conocíamos ellos conocían Conocer is irregular in the present, but not in the imperfect! How about decir?

Decir… yo decía tú decías ella decía nosotros decíamos 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 nosotros nos levantábamos 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! How about those three irregulars?

S Ser, ir, ver serirver eraibaveía erasibas veías eraiba veía éramosíbamos veíamos eranibanveían That’s all, folks – no other irregular imperfect forms in Spanish.

A piece of cake! The forms are that simple! We’ll look at the differences between the two past forms – the preterite and the imperfect – in a later slide show.
