Elena, WENT shopping. But if this is about buying food, then you say "I bought groceries today and got rolls"

Ok, thank you Uly. But why DID can't be used? As to "shopping" , the sentence in Russian doesn't sound well either because we also say "ходить за покупками" about buying clothes etc. That's why I translated literally. I understood that they first did some shopping and then bought some rolls...

Elena, you just gave the perfect translation at the end of your comment 😜

DID can't be used because "do shopping" isn't a thing.

Ok, great, thanks👍

Elena, FIRST I went shopping... At the beginning of a sentence, FIRST refers to the order in which you do things. However, in front of a verb, it means "for the first time." First I watched Star Wars and then I watched Forrest Gump. (order). I first saw Star Wars when I was a teenager. (for the first time).

If your wondering why i changed up WATCH and SEE... when we see a movie at home, we use WATCH, when we see it in the movies we use SEE. So saying that you SAW the movie when you were a teenager implies that you went to the movies to see it when it first came out.

Got it, thank you!😀
