Example Question #1 : Preterite / El Pretérito
Fill in the blank with the correct answer.
Nosotros __________ allí por ocho años.
Possible Answers:
vivimos
estábamos
vivíamos
éramos
íbamos
Correct answer:
vivimos
Explanation:
The correct answer is vivimos. Even though the example given "por ocho años" was an action that occurred over a long period of time, since a definitive beginning and ending period is given in the sentence, the only viable verb is "vivimos," as all of the other verbs are in the imperfect tense.
