Lesson outcome

I can use singular forms of 'hacer' in the preterite tense to describe what I and others did in Chile, as well as what the weather is and was like in Chile.

Show transcript
To describe completed events in the past in Spanish we use the preterite tense. The singular preterite forms of 'hacer' are 'hice' (I did/made), 'hiciste' (you did/made) and 'hizo' (she, he did/made). When contrasting what different people do or did, we use subject pronouns in Spanish (e.g. 'yo', 'tú', 'él', 'ella'). Chile is a Latin American country which has very varied weather because of its long, narrow shape. In English we use the verb 'to be' for the weather but in Spanish we use the verb 'hacer', e.g. 'hace sol' (it's sunny).
