Comprastes

Comprastes is a Spanish verb form. Specifically, it is the second-person singular preterite indicative of the verb "comprar," which means "to buy." The preterite tense is used to describe completed actions in the past. Therefore, "comprastes" translates to "you bought" in English, referring to a singular "you" in a familiar context. This form would be used in sentences like "¿Qué comprastes ayer?" which means "What did you buy yesterday?" or "Comprastes el pan en la tienda de la esquina," meaning "You bought the bread at the corner store." The conjugation of "comprar" in the preterite is: yo compré, tú compraste, él/ella/usted compró, nosotros compramos, vosotros comprasteis, and ellos/ellas/ustedes compraron. "Comprastes" falls within this conjugation pattern, though it is important to note that in many regions of Latin America, the "vosotros" form "comprasteis" is not used, and "comprastes" is often used interchangeably with "compraste" when referring to the informal singular "you." However, standard Spanish grammar dictates that "compraste" is the correct form for the second-person singular preterite.
