Concept: The Imperfect Subjunctive "translates" all the meanings of the Present Subjunctive into the past tense.
Ejemplo:
Present Subjunctive: Yo no creo que tu escribas poemas.( I don't think that you write poems.)
Imperfect Subjunctive: Yo nunca crei que tu escribieras poemas. (I never thought that you would ever write poems)
Uses:
The Imperfect subjunctive can be used in two ways:
In sentences of one clause
¡Que estuvieras aqui! (How I wish you where here!)
In sentences of two clauses
Ellos esperaron que tu fueras feliz.(They hoped that you were happy)
