In this video, we learn the complexities of expressing past actions in Portuguese! We dive into three essential past tense forms: "pretérito perfeito," "pretérito imperfeito," and "pretérito mais-que-perfeito" From completed actions to habitual past events, each tense provides a unique way to narrate experiences and timelines. Whether you're a language enthusiast or a learner seeking clarity, this insightful journey will deepen your understanding of these fundamental concepts in Portuguese grammar.
