1ASPECTO
One night, Sara, who was supposed to stay
home, decided to sneak out the back door at about
800 PM. Her parents were out of town and had
asked her to babysit her younger sister, Jessica.
However, since Sara knew that Jessica usually
went to sleep around 700 PM, she was sure that
she would not be missed. At 805 PM, the
back door opened and Sara slipped out. She
glanced nervously up at the darkened bedroom
where Jessica was sleeping and, with a lump in
her throat, started down the street towards the
bus stop. She only had to wait about ten
minutes before the bus arrived. She got on, paid
her fare, and sat down in the first empty seat.
She felt a strange rush of emotion - a mixture of
guilt, fear, and anticipation. The dance was
in full swing when she entered the gym. The
group was playing a loud, raucous song that she

3Imperfect
- suggests incomplete. The imperfect tense
expresses an action or a state of being that was
continuous in the past and its completion is not
indicated. In other words, at the time you are
referring to, the action was not fully completed.
The imperfect is therefore also the tense used
for description and expressing background in the
past.
4EXAMPLEAn action that was going on in the past
at the same time as another action.
- La maestra enseñaba y los estudiantes aprendÃan.
- The teacher was teaching and the students were
learning.
5An action that was going on in the past when
another action occurred.Examples
- Maria corrÃa cuando yo la vi.
- Maria was running when I saw her.
6An action that a person did habitually in
the past. Adverbs and adverbial phrases such as
todos los dÃas, siempre, and muchas veces are
often clues for the selection of the imperfect
rather than the preterit.
- Cuando estábamos en Perú, comÃamos pizza todos
los lunes. - When we were in Peru, we ate pizza every Monday.
