Page summary:
The Präteritum (aka Simple Past, Imperfekt, Narrative Past) is the more formal of the two German past tenses: simple past and conversational past (aka present perfect). For the most part, it is used in formal and literary written texts (e.g., a novel, a police report, newspaper articles).
