Erklärung
Ser and ir have identical preterites: fui, fuiste, fue, fuimos, fuisteis, fueron. Context always disambiguates — fui al mercado (I went), fui estudiante (I was).
No form carries a written accent: fue, not *fué.
The shared stem continues into the imperfect subjunctive (fuera/fuese) and the future subjunctive (fuere), again for both verbs.
