What is the Past Simple?

The video:

Text and explanation:

We use the Past Simple when we talk about something that happened in the past and is over now.

When you see these words there is a high chance the verb is past simple: yesterday, last night, last year, last week, a long time ago, in 2019.

It has 2 forms: regular and irregular.

Regular:

If the verb is regular, all you have to do is take the whole verb and put -ed behind it.

Like: walk - walked talk- talked

Uitzonderingen: If verbs end in -y with a consonant (medeklinker) in front of it, the verb changes in -ied. Like: marry- married, carry - carried. BUT if a vowel (klinker) is before the -y, it stays -yed. Like: stay - stayed.

Irregular:

You need to study these well. You can find them in your workbook on page 270 in the second colom. Let op BE. I/HE/SHE/IT was. You/They were.

There are a lot of irregular verbs in the video below. Look at it to become familiar with these verbs or look at them on page 270 of your workbook.

Text and explanation:

We use the Past Continuous to talk about things that started in the past but are still going on.

It looks like this: was/were + verb + ing.

So for example: I was singing in the shower when my mother walked in.

Questions look like this: Was I walking the dog when it started to rain?

Negatives look like this: We weren't watching TV when the doorbell rang.

Words that can signal the Past Continuous are: while, always, constantly and forever.
