Question

Write a complete sentence using the preterite of the boldface verb to say what Jorge and his dad did last night.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is Jorge y su papá hicieron una página web anoche.

Explanation:

The translation to this sentence would be:

Jorge and his dad made a web page last night.

We use the preterite in Spanish to show actions that have begun and ended at a specific time in the past (in the case of the example it would be last night).

The conjugation of regular verbs in the past, in Spanish is done as follows:

To the verbs ending in AR:

AMAR:

Yo amé

Tú amaste

Él/Ella amó

Nosotros amamos

Ellos/Ellas amaron

To the verbs ending in ER:

TEMER:

Yo temí

Tú temiste

Él/Ella temió

Nosotros temimos

Ellos/Ellas temieron

To the verbs ending in IR:

PARTIR:

Yo partí

Tú partiste

Él/Ella partió

Nosotros partimos

Ellos/Ellas partieron

With the verb hacer, it happens that it is an irregular verb, if we have the verb "hacer" for the person "nosotros" it would be conjugated as follows:

Nosotros hicimos.

Answer 2

Jorge y su papá hicieron una pagina web anoche/ Jorge and his father made a web page. Preterite is a defined past action.
