Grammar point: Journalistic narrative tense choice (part 2)
Spanish narrative journalism hinges on tense as much as on facts. At C1, you must master how the pretérito perfecto compuesto, the indefinido and the imperfecto encode closure, present relevance and background, not merely "pastness". The forms are learned early; the narrative judgment is not.
