The word ‘did’ in Spanish is translated as ‘hizo’ or ‘hacía’ depending on the context. ‘Hizo’ is the past tense form of the verb ‘hacer’, which means ‘to do’ or ‘to make’. For example, if you want to say ‘He did his homework’, you would say ‘Él hizo su tarea’.
On the other hand, ‘hacía’ is the imperfect tense of ‘hacer’, used for ongoing or habitual actions in the past. For instance, ‘He did his homework every day’ would be ‘Él hacía su tarea todos los días’.
Understanding the context in which ‘did’ is used is crucial for choosing the correct translation. Both ‘hizo’ and ‘hacía’ are commonly used in everyday Spanish conversations.
