In this problem, we need to conjugate correctly some verbs in the <em>preterite form.</em> In Spanish, the preterite tense (el pretérito) is used to describe actions completed at a certain point in the past. It is used to talk about beginnings and ends, things that occurred on specific dates or days. So:
1. Ayer nosotros comimos en un restaurante famoso
The right answer is 2) comimos
comimos is the correct conjugation of the <em>regular</em> verb comer for the first-person plural in the preterite form. The <em>Regular Preterite Verb Endings</em> are indicated in the Table bellow. You can recognize only two sets of endings for regular preterite verbs, one for <em>ar</em> verbs and one for both <em>er </em>and<em> ir </em>verbs. To conjugate a regular verb in the preterite tense, remove the infinitive ending (<em>ar, er,</em> or<em> ir</em>) and add the preterite ending that matches the subject. See from the Table that the correct ending here is imos.
Finally, the sentence translates:
<em>We </em><em>ate</em><em> at a famous restaurant yesterday</em>
2. ¿Qué compraste tú en el mercado ayer?
The right answer is compraste
compraste is the correct conjugation of the <em>regular</em> verb comprar for the second-person singular in the preterite form. See from the Table that the correct ending here is aste.
Finally, this sentence translates:
<em>What</em><em> did </em><em>you </em><em>buy</em><em> at the market yesterday?</em>
3. Ayer yo lavé los platos.
The right answer is lavé
lavé is the correct conjugation of the <em>regular</em> verb lavar for the first-person singular in the preterite form. See from the Table that the correct ending here is é.
Finally, this sentence translates:
<em>I </em><em>washed </em><em>dishes yesterday</em>
