Pretérito Imperfecto vs. Indefinido — A2 Spanish Quiz
Practice choosing between the Pretérito Imperfecto and the Pretérito Indefinido with this A2 quiz.
Spanish has two simple past tenses, and they do different jobs. The Imperfecto sets the scene — descriptions, habits, and ongoing actions. The Indefinido tells what happened — completed actions and the events that move a story forward.
This quiz drills the decision, not the conjugation:
- Choosing the tense in isolated sentences
- The interruption pattern — background in the Imperfecto, interruption in the Indefinido
- Time expressions — which words signal which tense
- Narrative mix — both tenses together in a single story
