Lesson outcome

I can understand a range of past-tense language in the context of the work of Arturo Pérez Reverte.

Show transcript
Like ‘ir’, ‘ver’ is irregular in the imperfect tense. ‘veía’, ‘veías’ and ‘veía’ are the 1st, 2nd and 3rd person singular forms of ‘ver’ in the imperfect tense. The imperfect tense is used to talk about something that used to happen repeatedly in the past. The imperfect endings of regular -er and -ir verbs are -ía, -ías, -íamos, -íais and -ían. The preterite tense is used to talk about something completed in the past.
