The Preterite of –ar Verbs • Preterite tense – used to talk about actions that were completed in the past / already happened • To form the preterite tense of regular -ar verbs in Spanish: 1. Drop the –ar ending 2. Add the appropriate ending for the subject being talked about

(yo) (tú) é aste (él / ella / Ud. ) nosotros ó amos (ellos / ellas / Uds. ) aron *note accents in yo & él/ella/Ud. forms!* Verbs that end in -car and -gar have a spelling change in the yo form only of the preterite. AR verbs (like jugar) car: c=>qu that have a stemchange in the present buscar => yo busqué tense do not have a gar: g=>gu stem change in the pagar => yo pagué preterite.

Direct Object Pronouns • Direct objects receive the action of a verb they answer the question “Whom? ” or “What? ” about a verb. – I bought shoes. o I bought what? Shoes. – In Spanish: Compré zapatos.

• Pronouns take the place of nouns. So, direct object pronouns take the place of direct object nouns. – Previous example in English: I bought shoes. – With a direct object pronoun: I bought them. • Ejemplos en español: – Yo compré zapatos. -- Yo los compré. – Tengo el libro. -- Lo tengo. – Llevo la gorra. -- La llevo.

v In English, him, her, it, and them are examples of direct object pronouns. v In Spanish, the direct object pronoun must agree in gender and in number with the noun it is replacing. Direct Object Pronouns: Singular lo [it, him, you (masc. Plural los [them, all of you] Usted)] la [it, her, you (fem. Usted)] las [them, all of you (fem. )]

v Direct object pronouns are placed directly before the conjugated verbs. – Busco los calcetines. – Los busco. – Tengo una gorra. – La tengo. v When an infinitive follows the conjugated verb, the direct object pronoun can be placed before the conjugated verb or attached to the infinitive. v Por ejemplo: – No voy a comprar la hamburguesa. • No la voy a comprar. Or: • No voy a comprarla.

¡A practicar! Rewrite each sentence using a direct object pronoun in place of the noun. Modelo: Como la pizza. -- La como. 1. Tengo los diccionarios. Los tengo. 2. Bebo el café. Lo bebo. 3. Busqué los zapatos en mi dormitorio. Los busqué. 4. Miro las pulseras en la joyería. Las miro en la joyería. 5. Como las zanahorias en el almuerzo. Las como en el almuerzo.
