Grammar game: Indicative Mood - Imperfect Tense

Notes - The (Spanish) imperfect tense is used to:

  • Refer to actions in the past that occurred repeatedly.
  • Refer to actions in the past that occurred over an extended period of time.
  • "Set the stage" for an event that occurred in the past.
  • Actions which are not physical, that is feelings and mental actions, usually use the imperfect tense.

Tip: To describe actions that occurred repeatedly or habitually in the past in English, the phrases used to or would, past continuous, or simple past are used.


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 imperfect tense of indicative mood 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.

Examples:

Yo abría la puerta cuando empezó a llover.- I opened the door when it started raining.... (1st person)

Tú alimentabas a los animales cuando trabajabas en la granja. - You fed the animals when you worked on the farm.... (2nd person)

etc.
