In the first part, we gave brief information about the subject of Past Continuous, that is, the Past Continuous tense is an important tense in the English language. We use it to say what we were doing at a certain time in the past.
In this lesson we will look at the structure and use of the Past Continuous tense. The Past Continuous tense is an important tense in English. We use it to say what we were doing at a particular moment in the past.
In this lesson, we will look at the structure and use of the Past Continuous tense.
Note that continuous tenses are also called progressive tenses. So, Past Continuous tense is sometimes called Past Progressive tense.
The past continuous tense, also known as the past progressive tense, describes actions that continued in the past, for example, I wrote my research paper all night. It uses the same construction as the present continuous tense except for the past tense of the verb to be.
In the second part, information is provided about the form of the subject of the Past Continuous tense and the basic formulas and concepts of how to write them in sentences, which word precedes them. The past continuous (or progressive) tense is a tense used to express situations that happened in the past and are still going on at any point in time.
When expressed in the affirmative form, the verb affirms an event that happened in the past.
The past continuous has the following structure in its affirmative form:
Subject + was/were + [verb + -ing] + ...
Was/were: past simple of the verb to be
In the third part, it is shown in what order the Past Continuous tense comes before the possessor in interrogative sentences and how to write it with examples. Questions that can be answered with "yes" or "no" are made by inverting the subject and correct form of the verb "be" (was / were). (Inverting means we change the order of subject and verb form
Affirmative sentence: I was sleeping. (subject "I" first, then verb form "was")
Affirmative question: Did I sleep? (to interrogate, the verb "was" comes first, then the subject
"I")
Examples:
Am I snoring?
Did he study all night again
The fourth part provides information on the use and formulas of the Past Continuous tense in negative sentences, the basic concepts of which word is preceded by a negative.
