Answer 1

Răspuns:

Sarah was my classmate.

They were at the mall.

The boys were tall and slim.

I was a firefighter in Bucharest.

He was my doctor.

The cat was under the table.

You were at school, studying English.

We were happy to help.

Explicație:

Trecutul simplu (Past Simple sau Past Tense) exprimă o actiune săvarsită si încheiată în trecut.

Verbele regulate formeaza trecutul simplu prin adaugarea terminatiei "-ed" la forma de baza a verbului.

- Verbele terminate in "-y" precedat de consoana il schimba in "-i" :

study (a studia) - studied (studiat)

We studied English. - Noi am studiat engleza.

- Verbele terminate in "-e" adauga doar "-d":

move (a misca) - moved (miscat)

He moved that rock. - El a miscat acea piatra.

Verbele neregulate au forme proprii de trecut.

Exemplu:

sleep (a dormi) -> slept (dormit);     write (a scrie) -> wrote (scris) ;     go -> went

I went to the opera last night. - Am fost la opera aseara.

Forma negativa se formeaza cu ajutorul auxiliarului to do, conjugat la trecut (did) + not in fata verbului principal la prezent. Did + not se folosesc des in forma prescurtata didn't.

Sper că am fost de ajutor! :)
