Explanation:
The Spanish preterite tense is used to describe actions that have already been completed.
For regular verbs, it´s formed by removing the -ar, -ir, or -er ending and adding the correct ending:
First person singular (yo):
for verbs ending in - ar: -é;
for verbs ending in -er and -ir: -í
Third person singular (él ella, usted):
for verbs ending in - ar: -ó;
for verbs ending in -er and -ir: -ió
Third person plural (nosotros/as):
for verbs ending in - ar: -amos;
for verbs ending in -er and -ir: -imos
The present progressive is used to describe an action that is happening in the present, and is formed by the present tense conjugation of estar + a present participle.
