El pretérito
We use the preterit tense to talk about completed actions that happened in the past. The focus is on the idea that the actions are finished. Although some people might call this the past tense, there are a number of other tenses that are past tenses. I went to the store uses the verb go in the preterite. If I say that I was going to the store that is another past tense, as is I have gone to that store many times, or I used to go to that store. We will cover all of these tenses in our text book, but in this unit we are focusing on this one tense.

Adjetivos y pronombres demostrativos
Demonstrative adjectives are words that indicate where an item is in relation to the speaker. In English we would use this shirt, that shirt or that shirt over there. In Spanish, of course, we have singular and plural forms and masculine and feminine forms of the three words in English, for a grand total of twelve versions of the three English words.
The difference between a demonstrative adjective and a demonstrative pronoun is that the adjective appears in front of a noun and the pronoun is used to refer to this, that or that over there without mentioning the noun even though it is implied.
Carlos: Me gusta esta camisa. ¿Qué te parece?
Juana: A mi me gusta esa.
Carlos: I like this shirt. What do you think?
Juana: I like this one.
Notice that Carlos uses esta followed by camisa. This is a demonstative adjective. Juana, on the other hand, uses esa. That is a demonstrative pronoun.
