"Hay fue" construction
I occasionally see and hear "hay fue" used, but I can't find anything on this construction on this site or elsewhere online. It seems like it might be an informal way of making the past tense of "hay" - so you could use it where you might say "hubo" or "había." Is this correct, or am I completely confused?
¡Gracias!

That's possible. If you Google it, you do see it though.
Hello celibedache,
I am not sure if we can use 'hay fue' by its self, I have never heard this construction before, if you are trying to say 'there was', then habia is probably a better choice.
Maybe we can use it in a sentence like: hay, él fue muerto.
Hope this helps!
Are you sure you didn't hear "ahí fue" or "ya fue"?
