While the preterit is used to talk about completed actions in the past that narrate what happened, the imperfect is used to describe:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>repeated, habitual, or usual actions in the past<\/li>\r\n \t<li>describe actions that were ongoing in the past<\/li>\r\n \t<li>describe what things were like in the past (what one \u201cused to do\u201d)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nThe imperfect can use time phrases that indicate repetition, such as \"siempre\", \"todos los d\u00edas\", \"todos los a\u00f1os\", \"con frecuencia\", \"usualmente\", \"normalmente\", \"a veces\", etc.\r\n\r\nThe imperfect tends to be one of the easiest tenses to conjugate, as well as the funniest\u2014you try saying \"trabaj\u00e1bamos\" five times fast! Notice that the -ER and -IR verbs follow the same pattern and that the \u201cyo\u201d and \u201c\u00e9l\/ella\/usted\u201d forms are the same conjugation.

While the preterit is used to talk about completed actions in the past that narrate what happened, the imperfect is used to describe:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>repeated, habitual, or usual actions in the past<\/li>\n<li>describe actions that were ongoing in the past<\/li>\n<li>describe what things were like in the past (what one \u201cused to do\u201d)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The imperfect can use time phrases that indicate repetition, such as &#8220;siempre&#8221;, &#8220;todos los d\u00edas&#8221;, &#8220;todos los a\u00f1os&#8221;, &#8220;con frecuencia&#8221;, &#8220;usualmente&#8221;, &#8220;normalmente&#8221;, &#8220;a veces&#8221;, etc.<\/p>\n<p>The imperfect tends to be one of the easiest tenses to conjugate, as well as the funniest\u2014you try saying &#8220;trabaj\u00e1bamos&#8221; five times fast!
