Let's look at Past perfect tense.

- ‘She had provoked me for months’
- ‘I had read about the law.’

The Past Perfect tells us about something that happened before another action in the past. It can also show that something happened before a specific time in the past.

Example: I had never seen such a high mountain before I went to Switzerland. Example: I did not have any money because I had lost my purse.

- To form the past perfect use ‘had’ + the past participle of the verb.
