First, let\u00b4s practice how to make the Spanish Pret\u00e9rito Perfecto with regular verbs. I will say a verb and a person (yo, t\u00fa, \u00e9l, etc) and I would like you to try to conjugate the verb correctly: (For example: T\u00fa \/ hablar\u2013 Has hablado)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nosotros \/ comer<br \/>\nYo \/ estudiar<br \/>\nEllos \/ vivir<br \/>\nUsted \/ leer<br \/>\nVosotros \/ trabajar<br \/>\nT\u00fa \/ beber<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Now, let\u00b4s do the same with some irregular Spanish verbs:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nosotros \/ abrir<br \/>\nYo \/ poner<br \/>\nEllos \/ romper<br \/>\nUsted \/ escribir<br \/>\nVosotros \/ decir<br \/>\nT\u00fa \/ hacer<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Can you translate these expresions of time from Spanish to English?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hoy<br \/>\nHace dos horas<br \/>\nHace un rato<br \/>\nEsta tarde<br \/>\nEsta semana<br \/>\nEste fin de semana<br \/>\nEste verano<br \/>\nEste invierno<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Please translate to English the following sentences:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mi hermano ha trabajado mucho hoy.<br \/>\nEste verano hemos visitado Roma.<br \/>\nHace un rato he visto una pel\u00edcula en la tele.<br \/>\nMis padres no han venido a mi casa este fin de semana<br \/>\nEsta ma\u00f1ana Silvia ha estudiado mucho.<br \/>\nEste mes he comprado un coche nuevo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Let\u00b4s see now if you know how to say the following adverbs in Spanish:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Already<br \/>\nNot yet<br \/>\nEver<br \/>\nNever<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Finally translate the following sentences from English to Spanish using the adverbs we have practiced before:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have already finished.<br \/>\nWe haven\u00b4t seen your house yet. (one person \/ friendly)<br \/>\nHave you ever visited Alaska? (one person \/ formal)<br \/>\nMy grandmother has never travelled by plane.<\/p>\n<p>Bueno, esto es todo por hoy.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you have enjoyed the class. Please keep in mind that the used of this past tense in Spanish is not exactly the same in Spain and in Latinoam\u00e9rica. Latinoamerican speakers tend to use other past tense, the pret\u00e9rito indefinido, when in Spain we use the Pret. Perfecto. For example, if I want to say \u201cI have already eaten\u201d I would say \u201cYa he comido\u201d, when some latinamericans would say \u201cya com\u00ed\u201dand both are correct.<\/p>\n<p>Nos vemos pronto con m\u00e1s clases pr\u00e1cticas de espa\u00f1ol.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Adi\u00f3s!<\/p>\n<p>I hope you are enjoying my weekly interactive Spanish lessons.
