0–5No pasa nada: that's exactly what the C1 materials are for. Start with the list below.
In Spain, the perfecto is used for a period that has not finished or is linked to the present (Este año he estudiado menos) and the indefinido for finished periods (El año pasado estudié más).
The imperfecto describes a repeated or ongoing action in the background; the indefinido presents it as a completed fact: Ella insistió mucho y al final fuimos.
Both verbs describe the situation at that moment, so they go in imperfecto. The event that interrupts it goes in indefinido or perfecto: ¿Qué dijiste? Estaba leyendo y no te oía.
Yes, as many times as you want, with no account and no email. We recommend reviewing the related materials and coming back a few days later.
