IWhat to watch for

Llevar is regular in the preterite: llevé, llevaste, llevó, llevamos, llevasteis, llevaron. The accent separates llevó (he took) from llevo (I take), and llevamos is the same in the present and the preterite.

The preterite tells what someone took or wore on one occasion (llevé el coche al taller, llevó un vestido rojo a la boda) and how long something took in total. In that last use the job is the subject: la obra nos llevó seis meses — not llevamos.
