Omit solía?

In the first example of this lesson, could the word "solía" be omitted and simply use "nadia", as the verb tense implies "usually"?

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Using the imperfect tense in Spanish to express habits or repeated actions in the past (El Pretérito Imperfecto)"

Hola Debbie

Yes you could simply go for the Imperfect tense of the main verb, in this case "nadaba". The use of soler though puts more emphasis on the "used to..." meaning.
