The imperfect past tense (Pretérito Imperfeito) in Portuguese is used to describe ongoing or repeated actions in the past, as well as to express habits, descriptions, and states of being. It is formed by adding specific endings to the root of the verb, which differ based on the subject pronoun.

The imperfect past tense endings are:

• Eu: -va (eu falava)
• Tu: -vas (tu falavas)
• Ele/Ela/Você: -va (ele/ela/você falava)
• Nós: -vamos (nós falávamos)
• Vós: -veis (vós faláveis)
• Eles/Elas/Vocês: -vam (eles/elas/vocês falavam)

Some common uses of the imperfect past tense include:

• Describing ongoing or repeated actions in the past: "Quando era criança, eu brincava no parque todos os dias."
• Expressing habits or customs in the past: "Meus avós iam à igreja todos os domingos."
• Describing physical or emotional states in the past: "Eu estava cansado depois de trabalhar o dia todo."
• Expressing age, time, or weather conditions in the past: "Eram 10 horas da noite quando chegamos."

It is important to note that the imperfect past tense is often contrasted with the preterite past tense (Pretérito Perfeito), which is used to describe completed actions in the past.
