Tu te lavais ?
Tu te lavais ?.....can this also be read as "you used to wash yourself?"? Thanks in advance for any help.
This question relates to:French lesson "Conjugate reflexive verbs in the imperfect tense in French (L'Imparfait)"
Asked 6 years ago
Depending on context, yes. It could also mean "you were washing yourself". Using the imparfait in French can be a bit tricky because the temporal structure in the English language is somewhat different. I found the corresponding lessons quite helpful.
