Preterito
       Preteritos are for speaking about an action that was
        ongoing in the past
       There are many types of irregular prederites



       The endings are:
          É         Amos             Í          Imos
          Aste      --------------   Iste       -------------------
          Ó         Aron             Ió         Ieron

Irregular Preterito (-car,-gar, -zar)
Tocar                             Jugar                             Comenzar
toqué                             Jugué                             Comencé
Tocaste                           Jugaste                           Comenzaste
tocó                              Jugó                              Comenzó
Tocamos                           Jugamos                           Comenzamos
tocaron                           jugaron                           comenzaron




        The irregular prederites are irregular because the spelling in
        the “yo” form must change from the regular endings to keep
        the same sound.

   Oir changes from I to Y
Modal Verbs
   Ir+a+infinitive            Going to do something
   Poder+infinitive           Are able to do something
   Querer+infinitive          Want to do something
   Deber+infinitives          Should do something
   Tener que+infinitive       To have to do something
   Soler+infinitive           To be accustomed to
   Necesistar+infinitive      To need to do something
Adverbs
   Adverbs come mostly in the “mente” form. This
    means that you would drop the last two letters,
    change the word to a feminine form, and then add
    “mente” to the end of it
   There are also irregular adverbs such as: muy,
    mucho, mas, peor, siempre, nunca, poco, tan,
    demasiado, y bastande
   If a word ends in “e”, then there is no need to change
    it before “mente-ing” it because it has no feminine
    form
Progressive Tense
   The progressive tense is used to show that you are
    currently doing an action. To make a verb
    progressive you drop the last two letters, and add
    either ando, iendo, or yendo
         Ando             Iendo             Yendo

    • Ar verbs        • Ir verbs        • Used for the

      into              into            • Used for
      bailando          comiendo          words that
                                          have double
                                          vowels
                                        • Ex: leer into
                                          leyendo
Past Progressive
   The past progressive is basically the progressive
    present tense, but using the “abas” and “ibas”
   It is used to say that you were in the process of
    doing something in the past using the imperfect
   Ex: estaba comiendo (I was eating)
   Ex 2: Estaba corriendo (I was running)

       as a pronoun. All demonstratives agree in number and gender
       with the noun if there is a noun
