Page 30: El pretérito de los verbos irregulares D

Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 3
In this exercise, first, we need to identify the pictures and then, using the pictures and the verbs in the preterite form complete the sentences.
The sentence reads:
“My friends and I/able to see/______/impresionating/last night”
Step 2
2 of 3
First, we have to indicate the picture. In the picture is the valley (el valle).
Now to complete the sentence we need to conjugate the verb *poder* (can) to the correct preterite tense form.
Since the subject is *mis amigos y yo* (my friends and I), we will use the first-person plural form of *poder*, which is “pudimos”.

Note that the verb *poder* (can) is irregular because it has a different stem (pud-). The irregular verbs in the preterite that have a different stem don’t have accent marks in their forms.
