Ms. Zelenecka's Saturday

I did many things over the weekend. On Saturday, I was cooking dinner when the bell rang. My boyfriend forgot his keys. I went back to the kitchen and finished cooking the curry. After dinner, we watched Netflix. We were watching Squid Game in the dark when somebody knocked on the door. It was our neighbour. He wanted to know whether we would participate in the trick-or-treat night. Later, I was getting ready for bed while my boyfriend read the news. He was reading an article out loud which discussed the dubbing/translation problems of the Korean Netflix show.

Past Simple

= completed actions, facts in the past

Ms. Zelenecka binged the Squid Game last weekend.

Past Continuous

= longer actions in progress at a time in the past

+ interrupted by a short action (past simple)

Ms. Zelenecka was watching the Squid Game in the dark when somebody knocked on the door.
