Extractions: Home Intro/Help Search Terminology ... Feedback PRETERITE Also called imperfect or simple past or narrative past To express events that have passed, past tenses are employed. To form the simple past tense, one only changes the finite (= conjugated) verb. Examples Ich sage dir das. ==> Ich sagte dir das. Das Feuer brennt langsam. ==> Das Feuer brannte langsam. However, this change is not the same for all verbs. There are several groups of verbs: Type Example Feature weak (regular) sagen - sagte "Weak" means that the stem vowel does not change (s a ge = s a gte) strong laufen - lief "Strong" means that the stem vowel changes (l au fe = l ie f) DOES change. irregular gehen - ging "Irregular" means there are other changes as well (usually consonants; g eh e - g in g). mixed (hybrid) brennen - brannte "mixed" means that there is a vowel change (a feature of strong verbs), but the conjugation endings are those from weak verbs (br e nne = br a nn t e). Here is a review of the conjugation forms. TENSE ==> PRESENT PRETERITE VERB TYPE ==> WEAK STRONG MIXED IRREGULAR PERSON VERB "sagen" "beginnen" "rennen" "gehen" ich

Verbs: Illogical Tense Shift In an formal work, such as a proposal, use an impersonal point of view. Best AmericanEnglish grammar Sites on the Web. American Heritage Book of English usage. http://www.people.virginia.edu/~bp/Comments/grammarPointOfView.htm
Extractions: The highlighted passage contains an illogical point of view shift. The Problem Illogical point of view shifts may confuse your reader. Definition "When composing, writers must decide from what point of view they want to express their ideas. Their three choices are first person, second person, and third person.... The problem in point of view occurs when the writer uses pronouns that unnecessarily shift in person. The most common error involves shifting from either first or third person to second person (you), resulting in an ambiguous reference to the reader. To avoid this error, keep the point of view consistent" ( Harper's Online Writing Lab Example "When I was in Afghanistan 30 years ago, you would never think a war would break out that was destined to last more than a quarter of a century." Solution Keep the point of view consistent. In an formal work, such as a proposal, use an impersonal point of view.

Extractions: AS AN AID TO READING Generally, speaking, Spanish grammatical usage in the seventeenth century does not differ greatly from modern usage. There are, however, certain recurring grammatical practices in Golden Age plays which are either rare or which have fallen into disuse in modern Spanish. Familiarity with the most common of these practices, which are listed below, will enable the student to read the plays with greater ease. The examples are drawn from plays in the anthology. The definite article el is sometimes used before feminine nouns and adjectives beginning with unstressed a- or ha-, and occasionally before other initial vowels. This el is an old form of the feminine article, not the masculine. Examples: el afrenta, el alfombra, el acerada cuchilla, el hermosura.
