1. I danced very well! / ¡Bailé muy bien!
Como ya te imaginarás vamos a fijarnos de nuevo en el diálogo entre Paul y María para aprender algo más. ¿Cómo contamos cosas que hicimos en el pasado?
|
PAUL: It is really nice to see you again! What did you do last weekend? MARÍA: I was in Spain. I visited my family, I ate lots of Spanish food and I went out with my friends and danced a lot! PAUL: That sounds great! Did you have fun? MARÍA: Oh yes! It was great and my parents were very happy to see me and I bought a new bike! I often miss my country and it was very nice to go back for a weekend. PAUL: What about your exams? How did it go? MARÍA: fine, I think. I did quite well in most of them, although there was a very difficult one and I didn't know the answer to all the questions. PAUL: Don't worry! I am sure you will be fine! |
Elaboración propia |
En inglés es facilísimo poner un verbo en pasado. Fíjate lo que le ha ocurrido al verbo visit (visitar).
El pasado simple afirmativo de los verbos regulares se forma añadiendo -ed a la raiz del verbo.
Existen algunas reglas ortográficas y aquí te incluimos las dos más importantes:
- Si un verbo ya termina en -e, sólo se le añade la -d (danced, smile-smiled- sonreir)
- Si un verbo termina en consonante + Y, la Y cambia a "i" y se le añade ed (Study- studied, cry-cried)
Cuando negamos en pasado se hace poniendo didn't + verbo en su forma base (infinitivo, como lo ponéis en el presente simple)). Ej: I didn't know (no sabía), He didn´t visit me yesterday
Para hacer preguntas se pone did + persona+ verbo (igual que con la negativa, en su forma base). Ej: what did you do? (¿qué hiciste?), Did you visit your brother?
