The ImperfectThe ImperfectIn this presentation, we will look at Spanish's
second past tense, in order to say phrases like, "In past generations, people used to..."
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.
Ejemplos:Tomaron el examen el lunes pasado. Gabriela recibió la
mejor nota de todos los estudiantes.El año pasado, fui a Costa Rica de vacaciones. Fue muy bien.Pedro se levantó, fue al baño, y se duchó.

The Imperfect tense describes...… 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.
… 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: usesThe imperfect: usesThese ideas –
actions repeated in the pastunfinished actions in the pastdescriptions about the past
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.”In English, the imperfect tense sounds like actions
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”).

OK, what are the OK, what are the conjugations?conjugations?
Finally! The imperfect tense is probably the easiest form to learn because there are only three irregular verbs.
There are two sets of endings…-AR: add –aba to the stemER/IR: add –ía to the stem
