💡 Grammar Points

The 'J' Sound in the Past

Even though the main verb is 'traer,' the past versions use a 'j' to make them easier to say. Think of it as a special bridge for completed actions.

Completed Action

Use 'trajimos' for a one-time event that is finished. If you were 'bringing' something habitually, you would use 'traíamos' instead.

❌ Common Pitfalls

Avoiding the 'i' Trap

Mistake: "traímos"

Correction: trajimos. It's tempting to follow the pattern of other verbs, but this one strictly requires the 'j'.

⭐ Usage Tips

Bringing vs. Taking

Only use 'trajimos' if you are bringing something TOWARD the speaker's current location. If you are taking it somewhere else, use 'llevamos'.
