Phase 2 of 3 — Conjugation

Key verb: VER — to see

You'll use "veía" in the conversation — one of the three true irregulars in the Pretérito imperfecto.

Pretérito imperfecto VER — to see

yo veía

tú veías

él / ella veía

nosotros veíamos

vosotros veíais

ellos veían

💡 Tip: VER is one of only three true irregulars in the imperfecto. Instead of a regular -ER stem, it uses the full stem ve- plus -ía endings: veía, veías, veía, veíamos, veíais, veían. Every form carries the accent mark on the í — just like regular -ER/-IR imperfecto.
