Past Simple

The simple past is one of the essential verb tenses of English. You will need it almost always when you talk about the past (next to the continuous past), in addition to the subjunctive and conditional constructions. The simple past is used to talk about a concrete action that began and ended in the past, which usually equates to the indefinite Spanish past. We use it with adverbs of time like last year”, “yesterday”, “last night”.
