• Błąd: Using the preterite instead of the imperfect for ongoing or habitual past actions.

  Poprawnie: Use 'balanceaba' for 'He used to rock the baby', not 'balanceó'.

  Dlaczego: The imperfect describes continuous or repeated actions in the past, whereas the preterite describes completed actions.

• Błąd: Confusing the imperfect 'balanceábamos' with the present 'balanceamos'.

  Poprawnie: Remember the 'a' in the imperfect: 'balanceábamos'.
