Frequently Asked Questions

Is it 'casaste' or 'casastes'?

It is always 'casaste'. Adding an 's' at the end of the second-person singular preterite is a common mistake even among native speakers, but it is grammatically incorrect.

Do I need to use 'tú' with 'casaste'?

No, it's not necessary. The ending '-aste' is unique to 'tú' in the past tense, so people will know exactly who you are talking to without the pronoun.
