* You gave
* They gave
DAR (Tiempo Pretérito)
* Yo d**i**
* Tú d**iste**
* Él/Ella/Ud d**io**

26
# Translate to Spanish.
I gave the book _to Miguel_
_Le_ di el libro _a Miguel_
## Footnote
Note that we repeat the indirect object pronoun *le* despite the fact that we still say *a Miguel*. The indirect object pronoun is **always** used whether or not the actual object is stated
27
# Translate to Spanish.
I _bought_ the book from Miguel
Le _compré_ el libro a Miguel
## Footnote
Note that the word *comprar*, as well as a few similar words (e.g. *robar*, *quitar*), often uses the preposition *a* to denote the person from whom the item is being purchased, rather than using *de.* Confusingly, this sentence could also mean that you are buying the book "for" Miguel, depending on context.
28
# Translate to Spanish.
_The sad part_ is that he never knew his grandfather
_Lo triste_ es que nunca conoció a su abuelo
## Footnote
Note that the word lo is used as a neuter article to indicate "the ___ part." Another common example is *lo bueno (*"the good part")
29
# Translate to Spanish.
_The part about_ eating made me hungry
_Lo de_ comer me dio hambre
## Footnote
the part about - *lo de*. Note that the phrase *lo de* is used to denote "the part about", or "all this business about"
30
# Translate to Spanish.
He doesn't understand _how handsome_ he is
Él no entiende _lo guapo_ que es
## Footnote
how (to express degree) - *lo*. Note that the use of the neuter *lo* here has nothing to do with gender. You would also say *Ella no entiende* **lo** *guapa que es*.
31
# Translate to Spanish.
She _tells_ me she is American, but I don't believe her
Me _dice_ que es americana, pero no le creo
## Footnote
to tell - *decir*. Note that the word *decir* means "to say" when there is no indirect object (such as *me*), but "to tell" when there is an indirect object
32
# Translate to Spanish.
TO SAY/TELL (Preterite)
* I said
* You said
* He/She said

# Translate to Spanish.
_I don't care_ if you come or not
_(A mí) no me importa_ si vienes o no
## Footnote
I care - *me importa*. (Literally "It is important to me.") Note that this verb works similarly to verbs like *gustar*, because the object of "care" in English becomes the subject of the Spanish *importar*
35
# Translate to Spanish.
_Apparently_, she doesn´t care
_Por lo visto_, (a ella) no le importa
## Footnote
apparently - *por lo visto*. Literally, *por lo visto* translates to "by that which is seen"
36
What is a **reflexive verb** in Spanish?
Verbs that reflect back to the subject doing the action. Although these verbs can often be used in a non-reflexive context, they are most generally used to show that the noun is acting on itself and are very commonly used among Spanish-speakers
37
What are the **reflexive pronouns** in Spanish?
Pronombres Reflexivos
* **me** (yo)= myself
* **te** (tú)= yourself
* **se** (él/ella/ud)= himself, herself, yourself
* **nos** (nosotros)= ourselves

to shave - *afeitar*
39
# Translate to Spanish.
I help my grandfather _shave himself_
