In this course, we learnt about past tense, which can be summarized as follows:
Rules to form past tenses:
| Tense | Rules |
|---|---|
| Simple past | past tense of verb |
| Future Continuous | was / were + present participle |
| Future Perfect | had + past participle |
| Future Perfect Continuous | had been + present participle |
Examples:
| Simple Past | Past Continuous | Past Perfect | Past Perfect Continuous |
|---|---|---|---|
| I walked. | I was walking. | I had walked. | I had been walking. |
| He walked. | He was walking. | He had walked. | He had been walking. |
| They walked. | They were walking. | They had walked. | They had been walking. |
