emma asked:


How do you decide whether to use the Imperfect tense or the Preterite tense in Spanish??

Example: Ayer (acostarse, yo)……..(1)……….pronto porque (estar, yo)….(2)….muy cansado.

In the dotted lines/blank space would it be: (1) me acostaba/acosté
(2) estaba/estuve

Any tips on deciding which tense to use??
Your help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Gracias
