In Language Transfer Track #48, Mihalis teaches us the 'line in the past' for -ER and -IR verbs. He compares it to the 'would' form of the verb in that they share the same ÍA ending but you take off the ending first. For example
- comería - I would eat
- comía - I was eating
- rompería - I would break
- rompía - I was breaking
Mihalis doesn't call it that, but it is the imperfect tense. I found this video which I thought was impressive he actually made a song. Kudos!
Part of today's homework was to record a conversation with our peer coach and post it on Telegram. I am not a techy, but we got it done. Thanks Joyce!
Ah. You were the hero today!! The grand techy!
ReplyDeleteThis is a cute vide
Imperfecto has only 3 irregular verbs….not like pretérito !!

Cuando era un niña, iba a la playa y veía el océano..
Aw thanks. I struggle to keep up with what comes so easily to anyone under a certain age. But I keep trying!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip. He has another song which I'll post for today. Everything helps!
