December 6, 200421 yr Author How about this? Gabriel Garcia Marquez had many brothers and sisters but lived with his grandparents, by himself.
December 6, 200421 yr How about this? Gabriel Garcia Marquez had many brothers and sisters but lived with his grandparents, by himself. 627798[/snapback] That doesn't really make sense. At any rate... Gabriel Garcia Marquez tuvo muchas hermanos pero vivio con sus abuelos. Not sure how the "by himself" would translate. Every way I think of it sounds awkward.

He was the only of his parent's children to live with his grandparents.

El fue el solo hijo de sus padres vivir con sus abuelos. PS: Jennifer, we're way past that.

El fue el el unico hijo de sus padres que vivio con sus abuelos.

December 6, 200421 yr I'm pretty sure it's preterite because everything occured in the past. Doesn't imperfect have to do with events that began in the past, but are continuing.
December 6, 200421 yr Author I'm pretty sure it's preterite because everything occured in the past. Doesn't imperfect have to do with events that began in the past, but are continuing. 627845[/snapback] Well I learned that imperfect began and ended in the past. Like "cuando era joven". = When I was young. It's not a definite start and finish in the past.

EG: "Cuando tuve cinco anos..."
