To learn how to use them, watch the video :) *Past simple:* I played tennis last week. ('play + ed' is a regular past simple form) I went to the cinema last night. ('went' is an irregular past simple form, the present tense form is 'go') To ask a question, use 'did' + present tense form: Did you play tennis last week? Did you go to the cinema last night? To make it into a negative sentence, use 'did not' + present tense form: I did not play tennis. I did not go to the cinema. *Past continuous:* I was playing tennis between 8 and 9 this morning. So, it's 'was' or 'were' + verb + ing To ask a question, invert 'was'/'were' and the subject: Was I playing tennis between 8 and 9 this morning? To make it negative, add 'not' after 'was'/'were': I was not playing. *Past perfect:* When I went to London, I realised I had been there before. So, you need 'had' and the past participle form (third form). 'Been' is the past participle form of the verb 'to be'. To ask a question, invert 'had' and the subject: Had you been to London before we travelled there together? To make it negative, add 'not' after 'had': I had not been to London. *Past perfect continuous:* We had been talking when you arrived. You need 'had' + 'been' + verb + ing To ask a question, invert 'had' and the subject: Had you been talking when I arrived? To make it negative, add 'not' after 'had': We had not been talking. *Used to:* I used to like spaghetti when I was a child. 'Used to' is followed by a verb in the present tense. To ask a question, do it in the same way you do it in the past simple tense. So: Did + subject + use to + verb Did you use to like spaghetti when you were a child? To make it into a negative sentence, say: I didn't use to like spaghetti. *Would:* We would go to the seaside a lot when we were younger. Use 'would' and a verb in the present tense. To ask a question, invert 'would' and the subject: Would you go to the seaside a lot when you were younger? To make it into a negative sentence, say: We wouldn't go to the seaside much when we were younger. ___ 📕 FREE ENGLISH GRAMMAR BOOKLET: Get your free grammar booklet for learning English: https://5minutelanguage.ck.page/grammar-booklet ___ 💌 CONNECT WITH ME: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@english.with.aga Instagram: https://instagram.com/english.with.aga Business enquiries: agnieszka@5minutelanguage.com ___ 📚 MY FAVOURITE RESOURCES: https://www.5minutelanguage.com/choose-your-language/ 12vvBvr1ouc |
