Since "It is sunny" is "Hace sol" then your use of the imperfect makes the most sense to me. (Besides- I trust you to know these things) - Goyo, DIC 20, 2009

The translator gives "Hizo sol".

Hizo is the preterite tense, which is past tense and that is correct. But the imperfect, hacía, is also past tense, but imperfect is for a longer period of time than preterite. I assume it was sunny all day? jeje. Mokay says your is also correct. - Goyo, DIC 20, 2009
So "Hizo sol" in England then :) - ian-hill, DIC 21, 2009

¿Es fue? - Goyo, DIC 20, 2009
Yes. I have seen it in books this way and heard it said. But "hacía sol" is also fine. Also see below "Estaba soleado" from Mokay is a real good way. I prefer to use the word "soleado" it is always on the tip of my tongue ready to use. - Daniel, DIC 20, 2009
I get what you mean now -- how can I use "fue" which is "ser". Remember the CID rule "Classify - Identify - Define" - Daniel, DIC 20, 2009
No, how can you use two conjugated verbs, both being forms of ser, back to back? - Goyo, DIC 20, 2009
Good question. I need to check this out. Ahh it must have been "fue soleado". Now I am confused. - Daniel, DIC 20, 2009
I got it Goyo -- It is me and my bad grammar! That's it. - Daniel, DIC 20, 2009

  • Estaba/estuvo soleado.
  • Estaba despejado (sin nubes)
  • Hizo/Hacía sol
  • Hubo/Había sol

All those sentences mean the same.

"Habia mucho sol" is the first thing that comes to mind.
