hello there everyone my name is Ronnie and you're watching England where you're

watching YouTube. Hi, Everyone!

YouTube. Hola a todos. La lección de hoy es una lección muy básica, pero muy importante, de

um today's lesson is a very basic but very important lesson in english grammar

gramática inglesa y de conversación. Esta lección es para Álvaro. Es para ti, solicitado. Esto

and in conversation

this lesson is for Alvaro, it's for you requested.

this is important because we're using the verb to be in the past: was and were

es importante porque estamos usando el verbo "to be" en el pasado, "was" y "were". Usamos

we use this verb a lot. so it's very important to know when to use was and

mucho este verbo, ¿de acuerdo? Por lo tanto, es muy importante saber cuándo usar "was" y cuándo usar

when to use were. I'll teach you. The very first one is: We use was for He, She, I, and It.

"were". Te enseñaré. La primera es que usamos "era" para "él", "yo", "ella" y

"eso". Entonces, vamos a decir, "Yo estaba", siempre pasado, "de compras". "Estaba comiendo pizza". "Ella se

so we're going to say I was always passed shopping

he was eating pizza

she was laughing hahaha. um it was beautiful

estaba riendo". "Fue hermoso." Entonces, con todos estos pronombres, usamos "was". Lo negativo,

ok so with all of these pronouns

we use: was. The Negative

all we're doing is adding not so we're going to say I was not but we don't say

todo lo que estamos haciendo es agregar "no". Entonces, vamos a decir, "Yo no estaba", pero no decimos

that we say I wasn't

eso. Decimos: "No lo era". ¿Bueno? "No estaba feliz". "Él no estaba triste". Entonces, en negativo,

ok I wasn't happy he wasn't sad so in the negative

all you do is you stick on is n't at the end and it turns to wasn't

todo lo que haces es pegar "nt" al final, y se convierte en "wasn't". Si quieres hacer

if you want to ask a question you're going to change the order you're going

una pregunta, vas a cambiar el orden. Vas a usar el verbo "was" más el

to use the verb was plus the subject

sujeto. Entonces, vas a decir: "¿Estaba feliz?" Con la pregunta vas a

so you're going to say was he happy with the question you're going to raise your

information at the end was he happy

subir la entonación. Al final, diga: "¿ Estaba feliz?" "¿Estaba triste?" Y "eso". "It" puede

was she sad and it it can be used for singular things that are not people

usarse para cosas singulares que no son personas. Entonces, animales, o si hablas sobre el clima,

so animals or if you talk about the weather or chairs

o sillas, restaurantes, comida, puedes decir: "¿Estuvo delicioso?" si estás hablando de

restaurants food you can say was it delicious

if you're talking about food or if you talk about the weather you can say

comida. O, si hablas del tiempo, puedes decir: "¿Estaba lloviendo?". "Está lloviendo ahora.

was it raining? it's raining now, I love rain though so it's fine

Me encanta la lluvia ahora. Está bien". La siguiente sección que tenemos que ver es el verbo "eran".

um the next section that we have to look at is the verb were if it is we

Si es "nosotros", "ellos", "tú" y nuevamente "ellos" , vamos a usar "fueron". Entonces, "éramos" significa

they you and again they are going to use were

so we were means myself and at least one other person

yo mismo y al menos otra persona. Esa es la definición de "nosotros". Entonces, "éramos

so that's the definition of were. so we were happy they is plural of which

felices". "Ellos." "Ellos" es plural de, lo que significa más de una persona, pero no usted.

means more than one person but not yourself so if I'm talking about other

Entonces, si estoy hablando de otras personas, puedo decir: "Eran". "Ellos estaban cantando." "Tú."

people

I can say they were they were singing

oh you I saw you you were watching the video

"Te vi. Estabas viendo el video". Muy bien. Gracias. Y ellos." "Oye, Ronnie,

very good thank you and they

hey honey you written they twice

has escrito 'ellos' dos veces". "¿Por qué? ¿Cometiste un error?" "No, no cometí un error".

why did you make a mistake

now I didn't make a mistake they has two meanings

"Ellos" tiene dos significados. La primera que les dije es el plural de -- para hablar de

the very first one I told you is the plural of talk about people so i can say

personas. Entonces, puedo decir: "Esa gente de allí, estaban cantando". La otra definición,

those people over there

they were seeing the other definition of the way we use they is like it

la otra forma en que usamos "ellos" es como "eso". "Ellos" lo usamos para sustantivos en plural. Entonces, los

they we use for plural

now so singular nouns we use it

sustantivos singulares, usamos "it". Sustantivos en plural, usamos "they". Por ejemplo, si hablas de un grupo

plural nouns we used a for example if you're talking about a group of dogs

de perros, puedes decir "Estaban gruñendo". ¿Bueno? Entonces, "ellos" tiene dos significados:

he's a were her growling okay so they has two meanings plural nouns and people

sustantivos en plural y personas. Las personas también son sustantivos. Entonces, "Ellos eran". Si son perros, pueden gruñir.

people are nouns

who so they were if their dogs they can grow her

there's a new word growl on the negative form is words kind of a hard word to say

Hay una nueva palabra, "gruñido". La forma negativa es "no estaban". Una especie de palabra difícil de

words again when you're going to make the negative all you're going to do is

decir, "no fueron". De nuevo, cuando vayas a hacer el negativo, todo lo que vas a hacer

put it at the end

es poner "-nt" al final. Es inusual o muy formal si decimos: "Ellos no estaban contentos". La

it's unusual or very formal

if we say they were not happy

the only way we would use was not or were not is if you're trying to be very

única forma en que usaríamos "no era" o "no era" es si estás tratando de ser muy obvio sobre

obvious about the point

el punto. Entonces, "No estaban contentos". "No lo éramos". Y, "No lo eran". Si quieres hacerlo

so they weren't happy

we weren't

and they work if you want to make it very very strong

muy, muy fuerte, vas a usar "were not". "No estábamos contentos con nuestro servicio".

you're going to use were not we were not happy with our service

ok the question form is basically the same as was that we have to be careful

¿Bueno? La forma de la pregunta es básicamente la misma que "era", excepto que debe tener cuidado con

bill to subject and again at the end of a question in English it's a rising

el tema. Y, nuevamente, al final de una pregunta en inglés, es una entonación ascendente. "

intonation where we have he were they singing

¿Éramos felices?" "¿Estaban cantando?" "¿Estabas cantando?" ¿Bueno? Entonces, "fue" y "fueron" siempre

were you singing

ok so was and were always in the past is the past tense was for these subjects

en el pasado. Es el tiempo pasado. "Fue" para estos sujetos y "fueron" para estos sujetos.

and work for these subjects negative and question form

Asunto y forma de pregunta. Espero que lo obtengas. Espero que lo entiendas. Espero que puedas

I hope you get it I hope you understand it i hope you can use it

usarlo. Cuidarse. Te veremos pronto.

take care we'll see you soon
