Unit 2A Labolengua Direct object pronouns, preterite tense Unit 2A: Labolengua A Direct object pronouns These are words like it or me which we use to avoid having to repeat the name of a person or thing that has already been mentioned. They usually go in front of the verb. ¿Tienes las llavas? Sí, las tengo. Have you got the keys? Yes, I’ve got them. lo it (masc. thing) la it (fem. thing) © Oxford University Press 2012 los them (masc. things) las them (fem. things) Unit 2A: Labolengua B Preterite tense The preterite tense or simple past tense is used to refer to an action that began and ended in the past. To form the preterite of regular verbs: take the infinitive viajar comer salir remove the ending viajcomsaland add the following endings: yo viajé comí salí tú viajaste comiste saliste él/ella/usted viajó comió salió nosotros/as viajamos comimos salimos vosotros/as viajasteis comisteis salisteis ellos/ellas/ustedes viajaron comieron salieron © Oxford University Press 2012 Unit 2A: Labolengua • Reflexive verbs follow the same pattern as regular -ar verbs but remember to place the pronoun in front of the verb: me levanté, te levantaste, se levantó etc. Now complete the verb alojarse (to stay) in the same way. • Here are some common verbs that have irregular preterites. Check them. Note that they have no accents when written in the preterite. estar (to be) hacer (to do) tener (to have) ir (to go) Ser and ir have the same form in the preterite tense, so fui can mean ‘I went’ or ‘I was’. The context should make the meaning clear. © Oxford University Press 2012 ser (to be)
