This is a variation of the game in course. The change consist in using another tense. These are the rules:

Write in Spanish and English, the conjugation of a different verb each time (included in a sentence).People must use the preterit indicative tense beginning with the letter A for each pronoun (I, you, he/she/it, we, you, they) then with B, etc. until you get to Z. When you get to Z, start again with A.

Examples:

First letter A

Yo amé a esa hermosa ...- I loved that beautiful ....(1st person)

Tú abriste las vías para....- You opened the ways for ... (2nd person)

Él almorzó..........

....................

Ellos admiraron .........

Second letter B

Yo bailé - I danced

Tú barriste.....

....................

etc.

I don't get it. If I conjugate with an A verb, should the person below me conjugate with a B verb? - Chavag, Dec 30, 2009

Answer 2

Balbuceasteis las palabras en vez de pronunciarlas.

Edit: Hope Heidita doesn't hang me from a flagpole for doing this. My plea is I'm following the rules.

I believe in English it would say, "You stammerred the words instead of pronouncing them".

Ooooo, heidita broke the rules, you're supposed to put it in English too. =) - DJ_Huero, Jan 4, 2010
