El pretérito de los verbos con el cambio ortográfico i-y (p. 30)
• Remember that verbs ending in -uir, such as the verb construir, have a spelling
change in the preterite. The i from the él/ella/Ud. and the ellos/ellas/Uds. forms
becomes a y. Other verbs, such as oír and creer, also have this change. Look at
the verbs creer and construir below as examples:
creer construir
creí creímos construí construimos
creíste creísteis construiste construisteis
creyó creyeron construyó construyeron



El pretérito de los verbos irregulares (p. 31)
• Several verbs have irregular stems in the preterite. Look at the chart below.
Verb Stem Verb Stem
tener tuv... poner pus...
estar estuv... saber sup...
andar anduv... venir vin...
poder pud...

• The irregular verbs share the same endings. The verbs tener and saber have been
conjugated for you as examples.

tener saber
tuve tuvimos supe supimos
tuviste tuvisteis supiste supisteis
tuvo tuvieron supo supieron

• Notice that none of these irregular forms has a written accent mark.
• The verbs decir and traer also have irregular stems and have different endings in
the ellos/ellas/Uds. form. Look at the conjugations below:
decir: dije, dijiste, dijo, dijimos, dijisteis, dijeron;
traer: traje, trajiste, trajo, trajimos, trajisteis, trajeron
