Question

question 17 of 20 which statement about the imperfect tense is correct? a. the imperfect is used to interrupt an action in progress. b. the imperfect is used to express repeated actions, meaning things you did repeatedly over time. c. ayer, la semana pasada, anoche, and cada are key words used with the imperfect. d. the imperfect is used to express actions that have a beginning and an end and that are definitely over.

Explanation:

The imperfect tense typically expresses habitual or repeated past actions. Option A describes the preterite (interrupting action). Option C includes preterite time markers (e.g., "ayer"). Option D defines the preterite (completed actions with start/end). Option B correctly identifies repeated actions over time as an imperfect use.

Answer:

B. The imperfect is used to express repeated actions, meaning things you did repeatedly over time.
