Answer 1

Here's a link to 'ser' in all of it's conjugated forms for future reference:

Ser: To Be

as you will see there,

'era' can mean:

I was, you (formal) were, he/she was

or

I/You (formal)/He/She used to be

I hope that helps

Answer 2

From Ser (to be). It could be first person (yo), third person (él/ella) or formal (usted) in imperfect tense.

imperfect tense in the indicative mood; not the subjunctive (fuera, fuese) - 0074b507, Sep 11, 2010
