Częste błędy

• Błąd: Using the preterite instead of the imperfect for background description.

  Poprawnie: 'Cuando llegué, todos se emborracharon' (implies they all got drunk at that moment) vs. 'Cuando llegué, todos se emborrachaban' (implies they were already in the process of getting drunk).

  Dlaczego: The imperfect sets the scene or describes an ongoing state, while the preterite describes a completed event within that scene.

• Błąd: Confusing the imperfect of 'emborrachar' with the imperfect of 'estar emborrachado'.

  Poprawnie: 'Él emborrachaba la fiesta' (He was making the party drunk - illogical) vs. 'Él estaba emborrachado' (He was drunk).

  Dlaczego: 'Emborrachar' is an active verb (to make someone drunk), while 'estar emborrachado' is a state (to be drunk).
