My Easter holidays This Easter have been very intense. I have gone every day to walk with my family to saw the processions. In my country this date is very important in some regions. For instance in the south of Spain the easter is a great tradition. The custome is to carry in procession figures of "passion of Jesús" and of the "Virgin María". In the procession many people go alone with the figures dressed with robes and their faces covered. They are "nazaneros". Other people accompany the procession behind of the figures. The figures are transported by men or women, they are "costaleros". This tradition is very old and come people of other countries only to saw this procesion.

================Corrections Below========

 

This Easter have been => This Easter has been. You are using the proper tense, but "have" is for 1st person (singular and plural), 2nd person (singular and plural), and 3rd person plura. "Has" is for 3rd person singular."


To saw the processions => To see the processions Just you have used the infinitive with "walk" (I have gone every day to walk") you must also use the infinitive for see ("to see"), instead of the past tense for "see", which is "saw".  To complicate things further, "saw" is the infinitive for the Spanish verb, "serrar", which was probably not your intention :)

 

In the south of Spain the easter => In the south of Spain Easter.... Easter (and other holidays) are always capitalized in English. Also, we do not use an article (the, a) for holidays. Instead of "the Easter", "Easter". Instead of "the Christmas", "Christmas".

 

custome => custom Spelling error.

 

"passion of Jesús" and of the "Virgin María" => "passion of Jesus" and of the "Virgin Mary" I substituted Anglicized names for the Spanish names.


behind of => behind "of" is not necessary here.


saw => see Same as above


procesion => procession. Spelling error.

I would say, "My Easter Holidays"

This Easter has been very intense. I have gone on a walk everyday with my family to see the processions. 

In some regions of my country, Easter (or 'this date') is very important.  For instance, in the South of Spain it ('Easter') is a great tradition.

The custom is to carry the figures of Jesus (-OR- passionate Jesus [Jesús de pasión is more like "passionate Jesus" and El pasión de Jesús is "the Passion of Jesus"]) and the Virgin Mary in a procession. In the procession many people go along with the figures dressed in robes with their faces coved. They are "Nazaneros." Other people accompany the procession behind the figures. The figures are transported by men or women called "Costaleros."

This tradition is very old and people from other countries come just to see this procession.

 

"To see" = Ver (infinitivo/infinitive) 

Present tense= see                Past tense= saw

 

Ellos vienen para ver              They come to see        (infinitive)

Yo he ido para ver                   I have gone to see

 

Hope this helps. Keep up the good work!
