era, iba, veía

Language Transfer Track #49 Mihalis continues with the imperfect tense and the three irregular verbs:

• ser = era
• ir = iba
• ver = veía

These are the I, he, she, you (formal) version. For the other conjugations you add s, mos, is and n. Senor Jordan has another nursery rhyme video to help remember. In addition to the sentence my peer coach gave me: Cuando era un niña, iba a la playa y veía el océano. Thanks Joyce!

Ía Ía Yo

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!
