* THE WORD AFTER "/" IS ANOTHER WAY THAT THE VERB CAN BE SAID.
** Do not get confused with the translation of the verbs "went" and "did" because these, like in the sentences below, could be translated with the same Spanish word than "to be" in the form "ser" but "fue=went", "fue=did" and "fue=was" have different meanings (the same is for plurals.)
