Tips to remember “pusieron”:
– Associate it with the English word “put” in the past, but with a Spanish twist; imagine someone “putting” something down energetically, which might help remember the strong “p” sound at the beginning.
– It contains the root “pon-“, like “poner,” which is the infinitive form meaning “to put” or “to place.”
– “Pusieron” sounds similar to “pushed in,” which may help remember that it’s a past action.
