The imperfect tense (saying what used to happen)

Here is my lesson on the imperfect tense. It's another "past" tense. It is used to describe what used to happen or what was happening. In our book, they separate those definitions and this Chapter in the book it's used to talk about what used to happen.

The verb "ser" in the imperfect tense

This is a short clip on the verb "ser"/"to be" in the imperfect past tense. Very commonly used when describing what someone used to be like. For example, "Yo era muy, muy, muy, muy, muy guapo" "I used to be very, very, very, very, very handsome"

Irregular comparisons

I told you I had another video that covered "irregular comparisons", well, I came through! I told you I was not a liar! Here are some comparisons that are more irregular in the sense that they do not follow the regular "más...que" formula. And by the way, it looks like I'm picking my nose in the still shot for the video! In the words of Jerry Seinfeld "IT WAS A SCRATCH!!!!"

making equal and unequal comparisons

Here are 2 videos on making equal and unequal comparisons. I have an earlier post about comparisons, and it's probably similar, but with each lesson and each level taught, there is always some different view or insight on the concept. I have a third video on irregular comparisons that I am still trying to get uploaded and will post it ASAP.

"e to ie" stem-changing verbs and the verb "jugar"

Here is a lesson I gave 2 days ago on "e to ie" stem-changing verbs, with the verb "jugar" which is a "u to ue" stem-changer. This will go well with the "o to ue" stem-changing verb lesson from before. You might want to reference it as well.

Sequencing words

There comes a time in every Spanish speakers life when they will be visiting a South American country and will be approached by a "thug" and threatened to be beat up unless they are able to explain what your plans are for the next day. Now unless you know sequencing words (like first, then, after, finally), you might not make much sense which could lead to frustration by your attacker and possibly a painful experience. So I wanted to say "your welcome" ahead of time for this lesson, and if you have not been through this experience yet, be glad you are able to watch this lesson before certain tragedy!
