Indirect Object Pronouns
In Spanish, indirect object pronouns are used to accompany or
replace nouns that act as indirect objects.
Here’s how: The indirect object pronouns me, te, nos, and os are
the same as the direct object pronouns. Only the usted/
él/ella and ustedes/ellos/ellas forms are different.

Preterite of -ar Verbs
The preterite tense in Spanish tells what happened at a particular
moment in the past. How do you form the preterite of -ar verbs?
Here’s how: Like present-tense verbs, you form the preterite tense of
regular verbs by adding tense endings to the verb stem.
visitar to visit
yo
visité
nosotros(as) visitamos
tú
visitaste
vosotros(as) visitasteis
usted,
él, ella
visitó
ustedes,
ellos(as)
visitaron
Durante las vacaciones, yo monté a caballo, mi mamá
visitó un museo y mis hermanos nadaron.
During vacation, I went horseback riding, my mom visited a museum,
and my brothers went swimming.
The nosotros ending in the preterite tense is the same as in the
present tense. Look for clues in the sentence to help you determine
whether the verb is in the present or past tense.
Acampamos anoche en el parque.
We camped last night in the park.
The word anoche tells you that the verb acampamos is in the
preterite tense, not the present.

Preterite of ir, ser, hacer, ver, dar
The verbs ir, ser, hacer, ver, and dar are irregular in the preterite
tense. They are formed without regular past-tense endings.
Here’s how:
The preterite forms of ir and ser are exactly
the same.
You must use clues in the sentence to
determine whether ir or ser is used in the
preterite.
fui
fuiste
fue
fuimos
fuisteis
fueron
Fuimos al parque de diversiones.
¡Fue un día muy divertido!
We went to the amusement park.
It was a very fun day!
Hacer has its own preterite-tense forms. In
the usted/él/ella form, the c of the stem
becomes a z before o.
ir to go / ser to be
¿Qué hizo usted ayer?
Hice la tarea.
What did you do yesterday?
I did homework.
hacer to do; to make
hice

Preterite of -er, -ir verbs
Regular -er and -ir verbs are different from regular -ar verbs in the

Note that the nosotros form of -ir verbs is the same in the preterite
and in the present tense (-imos). Look for clues in the sentence to
help you know whether the verb is in the present or past tense.

Reflexive Verbs
In Spanish, all reflexive verbs are expressed with a reflexive pronoun.
Here’s how: In the infinitive form of reflexive verbs, the
reflexive pronoun attaches to the end: bañarse.
When you conjugate reflexive verbs, the pronoun
appears before the conjugated verb.
bañarse to take a bath

REPASO Present Tense of Irregular yo Verbs
Some present-tense verbs are irregular only in the yo form.
They have endings different from the -o ending of regular verbs.
Here’s how: The verbs hacer, poner, salir, and traer end in -go

Pronouns after Prepositions
Pronouns that follow prepositions are different from subject pronouns
and object pronouns.
Here’s how: Use these pronouns after prepositions like para, de, a,
and con.
Pronouns after Prepositions
mí

él, ella, usted
nosotros(as)

Notice that these pronouns are the same as the subject pronouns in all
forms except mí (yo) and ti (tú).
Clara vive lejos de nosotros.
Clara lives far from us.
Tengo un regalo para ti.
I have a gift for you.
With verbs like gustar, use pronouns after the preposition a to add
emphasis.
A mí no me gusta la ropa de cuadros.
I really don’t like plaid clothes.
The pronoun after a can also clarify to whom a sentence refers.
Uncertain
Certain
Le gusta ir a la librería.
A él le gusta ir a la librería.
He/She/You like(s) to go to
the bookstore.
He likes to go to the bookstore.

The Imperfect Tense
The imperfect is another past tense in Spanish. How do you use it?
Here’s how:
The imperfect is used to describe something that was not
perfected or not completed in the past. You use it to . . .
• talk about something that was happening
• talk about something you used to do
• say how old someone was
• tell what time it was
Regular verbs in the imperfect take these endings:
Note that the

Preterite and Imperfect
You have learned two verb forms used for the past tense: the
preterite and the imperfect. How do you know when to use each one?
Here’s how: Decide whether an action had a specific beginning and
ending. Use the preterite if the action started and ended
at a definite time.
La guerra empezó en 1846.
The war began in 1846.
Santa Ana fue presidente de México.
Santa Ana was the president of Mexico.
Use the imperfect to talk about past actions without saying when they
began or ended.
Los guerreros no tenían miedo del enemigo.
The warriors were not afraid of the enemy.
El ejército peleaba valientemente.
The army fought bravely.
You can apply both tenses to talk about two overlapping events.
• the preterite for the action that occurred
• the imperfect for what was going on at the time
Cuando la guerra terminó, Santa Ana era presidente de México.
When the war ended, Santa Ana was president of Mexico.
Note that you use the preterite of ser (fue) to say that Santa Ana was
once president of Mexico, but you use the imperfect of ser (era) to say
that Santa Ana was president during an unspecified time.

Subjunctive with Impersonal Expressions
You know how to form the subjunctive and how to use it after
expressions of hope. You also use the subjunctive after some
impersonal expressions to show uncertainty that something will
happen.
Here’s how: When an impersonal expression gives an opinion that
something should happen, the verbs that follow are in
the subjunctive.
Fact: Mis amigos y yo estudiamos para los exámenes.
My friends and I study for the exams.
Opinion: Es importante que todos estudiemos para los exámenes.
It’s important that we all study for the exams.
In the second example, the speaker thinks it is important that everyone
study, but it is uncertain that everyone will.
Use the subjunctive with impersonal expressions to tell what you
think is necessary, important, preferable, good, or bad.
Es necesario que presentemos la verdad.
It’s necessary that we present the truth.
Es preferible que escribas tres artículos.
It’s preferable that you write three articles.
Es bueno que tenga la cámara.
It’s a good idea that she have the camera.
Es malo que publiquen ese titular.
It’s bad that they may publish that headline.
Pronouns appear before verbs in the subjunctive.
Es importante que nos expliques tu punto de vista.
It’s important that you explain to us your point of view.

Por and para
The prepositions por and para have similar meanings but different uses
in Spanish. How do you know which one to use?
Here’s how:
The preposition por can mean for,
through, in, because, and by. Use por
when referring to
the cause of or reason for an
• action
Por eso, ella escribió el artículo.
For that reason, she wrote the article.
Gracias por el regalo.
Thanks for the gift.
• means of communication
Te llamo por teléfono.
I’ll call you by phone.
• periods of time
Mari fue a Samaná por un mes.
Mari went to Samaná for one month.
Vengo por la tarde.
I’ll come in the afternoon.
• movement through a place
Los turistas pasan por la aduana.
The tourists are going through customs.
Fui a México por Texas.
I went to Mexico through Texas.
The preposition para can mean
for, in order to, to, and by. Use para
when referring to
• goals to reach or purposes to
fulfill
Practicamos para ganar el partido.
We practice in order to win the game.
• movement toward a place
Salíamos para la escuela a las
siete.
We used to leave for school at seven.
• the recipient of an action or
object
Estas fotos son para Laura.
These photos are for Laura.
• an opinion
Para mí, es una cuestión de
tiempo.
To me, it’s a question of time.
• deadlines to meet
Escribe el artículo para el viernes.
Write the article by Friday.
• employment
Sara trabaja para el periódico.
Sara works for the newspaper.
Use por to indicate cause rather than purpose. Think of para as
moving you toward the word, or destination, that follows.

REPASO
Comparatives
There are several phrases for making comparisons in Spanish. They
compare differences and similarities between people and things.
Here’s how:
Use the following phrases with an adjective to compare
qualities. Use them with a noun to compare quantities.
más... que
more . . . than
Lorena es más generosa que yo.
Lorena is more generous than I.
menos... que
less . . . than
Tengo menos dinero que Tania.
I have less money than Tania.
tan... como
as . . . as
Víctor es tan tímido como Sonia.
Víctor is as shy as Sonia.
When using tan to compare quantities, it changes to agree with the noun.
tanto(s)... como
as . . . as
Tienes tantas opiniones como yo.
You have as many opinions as I.
When a comparison does not involve qualities or quantities, use these
phrases.
más que...
more than . . .
Me gusta leer más que escribir.
I like to read more than write.
menos que...
less than . . .
Francisca juega al fútbol menos que al tenis.
Francisca plays soccer less than tennis.
tanto como...
as much as . . .
Viajo tanto como tú.
I travel as much as you.
The following comparative words are irregular.
mayor
older
menor
younger

TRANSPARENCY 13
Superlatives
In Spanish, you form superlatives by using más and menos.
Here’s how: When you want to say that something has the most or the
least of a certain quality, use a definite article with más or
menos. You use de after the adjective to say from what
group you are comparing.
el (la) más...
los (las) más...
el (la) menos...
los (las) menos...
Estos pájaros son los más bellos de la tienda.
These birds are the prettiest in the store.
When the noun is part of the superlative phrase, place it between the
article and the superlative word.
Eres la persona menos tímida que conozco.
You are the least shy person I know.
When you refer to an idea or concept, use the neuter article lo.
Lo más importante es estudiar. The most important thing is to study.
Use the irregular forms you learned with comparatives when referring to the
best, worst, oldest, and youngest. You use them without más and menos.

Other Impersonal Expressions
You have learned that the subjunctive is used after some impersonal
expressions to show uncertainty. If an impersonal expression deals
with certainty, however, the verbs that follow are in the present tense.
Here’s how:
Impersonal expressions with the words cierto and verdad express
certainty in the affirmative and are followed by the present tense.
Es cierto que respiramos aire puro.
It’s true that we breathe clean air.
Es verdad que trabajan de voluntarios.
It’s true that they work as volunteers.
When these expressions are made negative, they imply doubt or
disbelief. The impersonal expressions No es cierto que and No es
verdad que are followed by verbs in the present subjunctive.
No es cierto que respiremos aire puro.
It’s not true that we breathe clean air.
No es verdad que trabajen de voluntarios.
It’s not true that they work as volunteers.

Future Tense of Regular Verbs
You have learned one way to talk about future actions in Spanish using
ir a + infinitive. Spanish also has a future tense. How do you form it?
Here’s how:
You attach endings to the infinitive to form the future tense of regular
verbs. These endings are the same for -ar, -er, and -ir verbs.

Pronouns
In Spanish, reflexive pronouns, indirect object pronouns, and direct
object pronouns all function in relation to the action of the verb in a
sentence.
Here’s how:
Reflexive
me
nos
te
os
se
se
Pronouns
Indirect Object
me nos
te
os
le
les
Direct Object
me
nos
te
os
lo/la los/las
Note that only the
usted/él/ella and
ustedes/ellos/ellas
forms are different.
Reflexive pronouns appear with reflexive verbs. Together, they refer to
the same person, place, or thing as the subject.
Él se gana la vida como carpintero.
Indirect object pronouns answer to whom? or for whom? about the verb.
La ingeniera le habla al arquitecto.
La ingeniera le habla.
Direct objects pronouns answer whom? or what? about the verb.
El enfermero hizo los exámenes.
El enfermero los hizo.
When both object pronouns appear in the same sentence, the
indirect object goes first. When both pronouns start with l, change
the indirect object to se.
Delsi le explica la tarea a Juan.
Delsi se la explica.
Attach pronouns to affirmative commands. Place them before
negative commands.
Dímelo más tarde.
No me lo digas ahora.
