El Imperfecto

---

The Imperfect tense is the another tense that makes up the Past Tense.  The preterite is what communicates completed actions and helps move the story along, while the Imperfect is what paints the picture and allows the reader or listener to see what was going on during that time.  

Unlike the Preterite with its many exceptions to remember, the imperfect is much simpler, as it only has -AR endings and -ER/-IR endings and 3 irregular verbs.
