• Błąd: Using the imperfect for a single completed action.

  Poprawnie: For 'The storm whipped the town last night,' use the preterite: 'La tormenta azotó el pueblo anoche.'

  Dlaczego: The imperfect describes ongoing or habitual past actions, not specific, finished events.

• Błąd: Confusing the imperfect 'azotaba' (yo) with the preterite 'azotó' (él/ella/usted).
