Conocer is regular in the preterite. You use it in the preterite to say you met someone or got to know a place for the first time.

Ud., ėl, ella conoció Uds., ellos, ellas conocieron

This week in Spanish we learned a lot about the theme of being in a town or a city. We learned about the nouns of a city, how to ask for information, the impersonal and passive se, the preterite of –car, -gar, and –zar verbs, and the difference of conocer in the present and preterite tense. The first thing we learned about this week were all the different nouns that exist in a city:
• La Pescaderia – Fish Market
• La Carniceria – Meat Shop
• El Mercado – Market
• La Panaderia – Bakery
• La Muebleria – Furniture Store
• Los Telefonos – Telephones
• La Peluqueria – Hair Salon

• El Cementario – Cemetery
• El Ayuntamiento – Town Hall

We also learned some things that you can do at these places:
• En la pescaderia, se compra el pescado.

• En la plaza, se habla con sus amigos.

The next thing we learned about was how to ask for information and how to respond:
• ¿Me podria decir….? – can you tell me …?
• ¿Sabe usted…? – Do you know…?
• ¿A que hora…? – At what time…?
• No estoy seguro – I’m not sure.

Examples:
• ¿Me podria decir cuando esta la fiesta de Marta?
• ¿Sabe usted donde esta el café?
• ¿A que hora es la clase de espanol?

The next things that we learned about were the impersonal and the passive se.
Impersonal Se:
• This form of se can be the subject of the third person singular form of a verb without an object. It can mean they, one, or you.

Examples:
• Se paga mucho por las cosas en este pais. – They pay a lot for things in this country.
• Se habla el ingles en este pais. – They speak English in this country.
• Se lleva bueno ropa en este pais. – They wear good cloths in this country.

Passive Se:
• The pronoun se can also be used to say that something is done, without saying who does it.
• The verb agrees in number with the noun receiving the action.
• Passive se is often used to say what is or isn’t allowed

Examples:
• No se permite los animals aqui. – animals are not permitted here.
• Se habla el espanol en este tienda. – Spanish is spoken in this store.
• Se prohibe corer en el resturante. – Running is prohibited in the restaurant.

The next thing that we learned about this week were the preterite forms of –gar, -car, and –zar verbs.
• -car endings are changes to qué
• -zar endings are changed to cé
• -gar endings are changed to gué

Examples:
• Yo busque por la ropa por la fiesta.
• Yo jugue el basquetbol en el gimnasio.
• Yo almuercé con mis amigos.

The last thing we learned about this week was the difference between conocer in the preterite and present tense forms.
• Conocer is regular in the preterite tense
• Use conocer to say you met someone or got to know a place for the first time.

Examples:
• Yo conoci Marta en el colegio. – I met Marta in school.
• Juan conocio Pedro en las peliculas. – Juan met Pedro in the movies.
• Nosotros conocimos la plaza en el verano. – We got to know the plaza for the first time in the summer.

Se habla español.

Passive se can also be used to say what is or isn’t allowed.
The verbs poder, prohibir and permitir are used frequently.

Se prohíbe gritar.

Se permite practicar.

No se puede comer.

Lastly, we learned the preterite tense of car, gar and zar verbs and conocer.

Any verbs ending in CAR, GAR or ZAR have spelling changes in the YO forms of the preterite.

CAR verbs
C → qu
(tocar → toqué)

GAR verbs
G → gu
(llegar → llegué)

ZAR verbs
Z → c
(oragnizar → organicé)

They are only spelled differently in the YO form because they are followed by a weak vowel.

Conocer means to know someone or to be familiar with a place or a thing in the present tense.
In the preterite tense, it is used to say you met someone or got to know a place for the first time.

The verb is conjugated normally:

Yo conocí
Tú conociste
Él/ella/ud conoció
Nosotros(as) conocimos
Ellos/ella/uds conocieron

EXAMPLES:

Yo conocí Maria ayer.

Ella conoció Paco anoche en la fiesta.

Erĺa at the end of a word means that it is a market. The beginning of the word tells you what kind of market. (Pescaderĺa – fish market. Carnicerĺa – meat. Mueblerĺa – furniture store. La panaderĺa – bread shop. Floristerĺa – flower shop. Peluquerĺa – solon. Fruterĺa – fruit stand. Tienda de comestibles – grocery store. Mercado – market.) Common vocab for city talk is llevar – to take, pasearse – to stroll, and recoger - to pick someone up. Common questions are: ¿Me poderĺ decer…? (could you tell me…?) ¿A que hora…? (when…?) ¿Sabe usted…? (do you know…?).
The impersonal “se” can be the subject of the third person singular form of a verb without an object. It can be “they won,” or you. [E.x. Se vive bien en estè pueblo. (They live well in this town) Se trabaja mucho en estè pais. (The work a lot.)]
The passive se can also be used to say that something, “is done,” without saying who does it. The verb agrees in the number with the noun receiving the action. This use is called Passive Se. [E.x. ¿Se vende pan en la tienda de comestebles? (Is bread sold at the grocery store?)]. Passive se is often used to say what is or isn’t allowed. [E.x. Se prohĺbe fumar. (Smoking is not allowed.) No se permite nada. (Swimming is not allowed.)
Preterite of –car, -gar, -zar verbs. Any verb that ends with car, gar, or zar there will be and irregularty. You now know how to form the perterite of all regular verbs. Remembering that verbs ending in –car, -gar, -zar have spelling changes in the YO forms of the preterite.
Buscar → yo busque. C – qu / Tocar → yo toquè. G – gu / Llegar → yo Lleguè. Z- c
In the present tense, conocer means to know someone or be familiar with a place. It is irregular in the YO form. (Conozco) ¿Conoces a Jorge? (Do you know George?). In the preterite conocer is regular. ¿Dónde conocistè a Marta? (Where did you meet Marta?).

¿Adònde fuiste?- Where did you go?

Creo que sì.-I think so.
Si, claro.-Yes, of course.
Se abre a las nueve.-It opens at nine.
No estoy seguro(a). Pregùntele a alguien en el ayuntamiento.-I’m not sure. Ask someone at town hall.
Fui a la floristerìa con mi madre y mi abuela.-I went to the florist with my mom and grandma.
Yo fui caminar con mi perro en el parque.-I went for a walk with my dog in the park.

We learned about the impersonal and passive se too.
With the impersonal se, it can be used as the subject of the third person form of a verb without an object. It can mean they, one, or you.
Examples:
Se vive bien en esta ciudad. –They (people) live well in this city.
Se juega mucho en este paìs.-One plays a lot in this country.

On the other hand, the passive se is used to say that something is done, without saying who does it. The verb agrees in number with the noun receiving the action. The passive se is also used to say what is or isn’t allowed.
Examples:
Se habla español aquì.-Spanish is spoken here.
¿Se vende pan en la tienda de comestibles?-Is bread sold at a grocery store?
¿Dònde se pueden comprar unas mapas?-Where can you (one) buy some maps?
Se permite nadir.-Swimming is allowed.
Se prohìbe hablar.-Talking is not allowed.

The last topic we discussed in Spanish class this week was the preterite of -car, -gar, -zar verbs and conocer.
In the “yo” form of the preterite tense the spelling of -car, -gar, and -zar verbs changes.
car---qu
gar---gu
zar---c

examples:
buscar-busquè
jugar-juguè
empenzar-empecè

Also, in the “yo” form of the verb conocer changes to conozco. But in the preterite tense, conocer is regular and it is used to say you met someone or got to a know a place for the first time.

Yo conocì
Tù conociste
Ud., èl, ella conociò
Nosotros(as) conocimos
Uds., ellos, ellas conocieron

A few sentences to show how these are used are

To ask for information you say disculpe or perdon In front of what your asking

the impersonal se can be the subject of the third person. Singular form of a verb with out a subject. It can mean they, one or you.
For example
Se habla espanol- they speak Spanish
Se nadar en esta pueblo.
Se habla ingles.

The passive se is used to what is allowed and what isn’t allowed in a certain city and/or area. To use the passive say you must conjugate the verb to the tu form and follow it by an action.
A few examples of that are as follows..
Se prohibe nadar
Se habla frencias
Se premite montar en el bicecleta
No se premite comer
Se prohibe fumar

All verbs ending in car gar or zar have spelling changes in the yo form.
