Past simple vs Past continuous

Twee vormen van verleden tijd:

- iets wat kort duurde

- Iets wat langer duurde

Even herhalen: verleden tijd

Je gebruikt de verleden tijd om te zeggen dat iets in het verleden gebeurde en voorbij is.

She talked to her friend yesterday.

Verleden tijd van 'work'

1. workd
2. worked
3. workt
4. worket

Verleden tijd van 'play'

1. playt
2. playd
3. played
4. playet

Verleden tijd van 'walk'

1. walkt
2. walkd
3. walket
4. walked

Verleden tijd van 'eat'

PAST CONTINUOUS

Je kunt ook zeggen dat iets in het verleden gebeurde, maar dat het wat langer duurde.

Bijvoorbeeld:

 aan het lezen, aan het kijken, aan het praten, aan het fietsen, etc.)

Past Continuous

The dog was listening to his owner.

She was using her phone.

Dirk was watching TV

They were doing homework

Hoe maak je de Past Continuous?

                                                        was of were + ing

                            

I                            was          repairing                              

You                      were       driving

He, she, it         was          freezing
We                       were        going
You                      were        studying
They                    were        walking

Samen in één zin

Soms staan allebei de vormen in 1 zin, bijvoorbeeld:

Suzie was walking the dog when she tripped over a rock

When my mother called, I was having a shower.

Je gebruikt was/were+ing voor de lange gebeurtenis

Je gebruikt de normale verleden tijd voor de kortere gebeurtenis

Let op: indien het werkwoord eindigt op een “stomme e”

dan komt de “stomme e” te vervallen
