This story happened to John, a friend of mine, ten years ago. He was travelling back to the UK from Japan and he met a Japanese woman on the plane. He started talking to her and learned that she was working in London. It was raining when they got to the airport, so John decided to get a taxi. While he was waiting in the queue, he saw the Japanese woman again. He offered her a lift home and gave her his phone number. Six months later he asked her to marry him.

Explicație:

Past simple

Folosim pentru a vorbi despre acțiuni finisate, obiceiuri sau stări din trecut.

• Formula pentru afirmativ: verb + ed (+ ied dacă verbul se termină în y) Ex: walk + ed = walked  
  talk + ed = talked  
  reply + ed = replied

• Formula pentru interogativ: did + pronoun + verb
  Ex: Did you go to school yesterday?  
  Did she read the letter we got today?

• Formula pentru negativ: pronoun + did not + verb
  Ex: I didn't manage to do my homework in time.  
  We didn't go to store to buy groceries this week.  

NB! Unele verbe au forme speciale la trecutul simplu: hit = hit, eat = ate, run = ran, etc

Past continuous este folosit

• pentru a vorbi despre acțiuni ce au loc înainte sau după o altă acțiune.
  Ex: My mom was cooking dinner when I arrived home.
  The other day I was sweeping the floors when I found the ring I lost.

• pentru a vorbi despre acțiuni ce au loc înainte sau după un timp anumit.
  Ex: It was 6:00. I was getting ready for school.

• pentru a vorbi despre acțiuni ce au durat ceva timp.
  Ex: My stomach was hurting.
  Everyone was thinking how to solve the problem.

• pentru a vorbi despre acțiuni ce se repetă.
  Ex: They were always trying to find the best route.
  I was playing video games every day.

Formula
Afirmativ: pronoun + was/were + verb-ing
Interogativ: was/were + pronoun + verb-ing
Negativ: pronoun + was not/were not + verb-ing
