Is "Era las tres..." correct?

Question

In the reference article about the imperfect tense an example is given, "Era las tres de la tarde." (It was three o´clock in the afternoon.) Should it really be "eran las tres..." since the hour is more than one? And "era la una..." would then be correct for "'it was one o'clock..."?

Answer 1

I think you're right....eran las tres.

This is confirmed in the video for lesson 2.10. - chull, Feb 13, 2010
