Hi.... how are you??? I would try to explain these sentences. Jo vaig comprar is the same as I bought and jo comprava, the translation is the same but is another tense.... I explian this very bad!!! In catala the verbs are very difficult. :9
Nosaltres miravem la televisio is in past tense.... and nosaltres anem a mirar la televisio is the same as We are going to watch tv, It is like a future, it isn´t happened yet.....
Examples.... This evening I´m going to visit my mother..... and the past
tense it would be.... yesterday I visited my mother.
I hope you understand a little my words... and don´t worry I will be in touch....

I'm not Catalan, but IMHO "vaig comprar" means "I bought", and "jo comprava" can mean either:
* "I was buying"
- Què feies que no agafaves el mòbil? [You wouldn't pick up the phone, what were you doing?]
- Comprava. [I was shopping.]
* "I used to buy"
- De petit, sovint em comprava llibres de novel.les negres. [When I was a kid, I often used to buy mistery novels.]
Sorry for the bad examples.
