ser, ir for spanish homework in my school

Question

i was doing my homework to conjugate words into past tense and found that in the conjugation on top. ser and ir have the same conjugations. Are they the same???

Answer 1

In the preterite (one version of the past tense), yes. If you're studying past tense, I'm sure you've already noticed that they are not conjugated the same in the present.

thanks now i can finish my homework - Jihun, Mar 3, 2014
