First of all, we must carefully read the instructions to understand what we must do.

In this activity, we are going to work with the pluperfect tense.

It is formed with the verb **haber** in imperfect form and **the past participle** of another verb.

This tense is used to tell about an action in the past that happened before another action in the past. In English, it can be translated as **had done**.

**Past participle** is formed by adding :
– **-ado** to the stem of **-ar** verbs.

**Example**:
**Cantar**.
**Cantado**.
– **-ido** to the stem of **-er** or **-ir** verbs.

**Example**:
**Comer**.
**Comido**.

**Beber**.
**Bebido**.

We also need to know that in verbs ended in **-aer**, **-eer**, **-eír**, and the verb **oir**, we have to write an accent mark on the **i** in the past participle.

**Example**:
**Leer**.
**Leído**.

Verbs ended in **-uir** do not need the written accent mark in the past participle.

Several Spanish verbs have irregular past participles.

**Example**:
**Decir – Dicho**.
**Poner – Puesto**.
**Resolver – Resuelto**.
**Ver – Visto**.
**Romper – Roto**.

**Let´s take a look at the imperfect tense of ***Haber***:

|Yo |había |
|Tú |habías |
|Él / Ella / Ud. |había |
|Nosotros |habíamos |
|Vosotros |habíais |
| Ellos / Ellas / Uds.|habían |

The present perfect has two parts, the second one is the same in all forms.

**Remember** that the object pronouns, reflexive pronouns, and negative words are placed before the first part of the conjugation.

**Example**:
**Me** había bañado temprano.
**No** había hecho el trabajo.
**No se** había vestido todavía.
