i would answer this question using that model

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

@prof_gualda muito obrigado! and as for #4, that was the day i missed for the conference...amanda explained it to me but i'm not sure how

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

the following are questions that amanda and I had during our study session...they're numbered and in order

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

(Q1) i remember you saying that for indirect/direct objects, me/mim was one extreme (where you usually use the object pronoun before

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

the verb) and ele/ela/a gente was another extreme (where you always use "para," after the verb). i remember you saying that "você/te" was

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

somewhere in the middle of these two extremes...do you remember what i'm talking about? when do you use te and when do you use para você?

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

(Q2) which irregular preterits do we need to know? just the key ones - estar, ter, saber, etc.?

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

(Q3) is the following correct: "estar" is only used in the imperfect to signify (1) past progressive or (2) a specific

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

short term event that is interrupted (e.g. eu estava com fome quando a minha mãe me deu

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

a comida)? otherwise, you use the imperfect of ser for long-term events...like, "eu sempre era contente até receber um 'F' no exame"?

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

(i was ALWAYS happy until I got my first F)

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

(Q4) does the preterit have to come after the imperfect? if you wanted to say "i got an F and FROM THAT POINT ON i was

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

unhappy" can you say "eu recebi um 'F' e [from that point on] eu era infeliz"

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

@amandamsvensson eu mal posso esperar! eu tenho que revisar muito...

@prof_gualda e para a parte oral, a gente não tem que falar, né? só escutar?

[Zach Levine @zachlevine]

@prof_gualda que são as seções do exame?
