How do you say "You were" and "Have a great summer" in Spanish?

Answer 1

you were = tú eras/estabas (informal)
usted era/estaba (formal)
ustedes eran/estaban (plural)

Que tengas un verano fantástico.

Answer 2

You were:
Tu estuviste
El/Ella estuvo
Ellos estuvieron
Ustedes estuvieron

Have a great summer:
Que tengan un verano estupendo
Que tengas un verano genial

Answer 3

you were (is not tu eres like some idiots said)-estuviste if your using the preterite-estar. fuiste for preterite-ser (sorry that's you went. there is nothing for here). eras for imperfect-ser. estabas for imperfect-estar.

The preterite is a past used to describe things with a definate start and end (one point in time). The imperfect does not have a definate start or end (could be said to say someone was doing something over a period of time). There's more to it, but that's the basic.

Ser (to be) is used to describe someone/something physically (he is blue=his skin is blue). Estar is used to describe someone mentally (he is blue=he's sad). Again, there's more to it, but that's the basic.

Hope this didn't bore you and actually helped.

Answer 4

Have a great summer = que tengas un buen verano (singular, informal) or que tenga un buen verano (singular, formal) or que tengan un buen verano (plural, LatinAmerica)

You were... = fuiste..., estuviste..., eras..., estabas... (singular, informal)

The translation of "you were" may vary depending on the context

Hope that helps ;)

Answer 5

Tu fuiste
Ten un verano excelente

Answer 6

You were---Tu eras or tu estabas
Have a great summer--Ten un maravilloso verano

Answer 7

You were = "Tu estavas/ tu eras" (depending in the sentence but those are it)

have a great summer = "Que tengas un buen verano"

Answer 8

Spanish is so complex!...

YOU WERE:

From the verb "ser", imperfect tense:
(Tú) eras.
(Usted) era.
(Vosotros) érais.
(Ustedes) eran.

From the verb "estar", imperfect tense:

(Tú) estabas.
(Usted) estaba.
(Vosotros) estábais.
(Ustedes) estaban.


From the verb "ser", preterit:

(Tú) fuiste.
(Usted) fue.
(Vosotros) fuisteis.
(Ustedes) fueron.

From the verb "estar", preterit:

(Tú) estuviste.
(Usted) estuvo.
(Vosotros) estuvísteis.
(Ustedes) estuvieron.


Note: "vosotros" is only used in Spain.

HAVE A GREAT SUMMER:

¡Que tengas/tenga/tengáis/tengan un verano excelente!

I know this is long and complicated... I hope it's helpful, though.
Good luck.
