Question

select the correct answer
which verb form correctly completes this conversation?

laura: ¿dónde estuviste ayer?
eva: ayer ______ a visitar unos primos en antigua guatemala.

a. iba
b. ibamos
c. fui
d. fuiste

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the context and verb conjugation in Spanish. The question is about past tense (ayer - yesterday) and the subject is Eva (first - person singular, "yo" form in past). The verb "ir" (to go) in preterite tense: "yo fui" (I went). Let's check options:

• A. "iba" is imperfect (used for ongoing past actions), not preterite for a single past action like visiting cousins yesterday.
• B. "ibamos" is first - person plural (we went), but Eva is singular.
• C. "fui" is first - person singular preterite of "ir" (yo fui), which fits Eva's response (she is the speaker, so "yo" form, and the action happened yesterday - preterite).
• D. "fuiste" is second - person singular (you went), but Eva is speaking about herself, not "you".

Answer:

C. fui
