Fill in the blank. You asked for- Tú _______.
Correct Answer
pedisteExplanation
The correct answer is "pediste" because it is the second person singular preterite form of the verb "pedir" in Spanish. In this sentence, "tú" is the subject and "pediste" is the past tense form of "pedir," which means "to ask for" or "to request." Therefore, the sentence translates to "You asked for."Rate this question:
