Past Continous Tense digunakan untuk kegiatan-kegiatan atau situasi-situasi yang telah terjadi selama sebuah periode waktu. Contoh:
- We were playing tennis with some friends from work.
- The sun was shining this morning.
| Tunggal I was walking You were walking He was walking She was walking It was walking | Jamak We were walking You were walking They were walking |
Past Continous Tense digunakan untuk tindakan-tindakan yang sedang berlangsung di masa lampau. Kita sedang berada di pertengahan tindakan-tindakan ini, yakni tindakan-tindakan tersebut telah dimulai tetapi belum berakhir. Contoh:
Past Continous Tense dan Simple Past Tense sering digunakan bersama untuk menunjukkan bahwa sebuah situasi terjadi selama terjadinya situasi lainnya. Past Continous Tense digunakan untuk sebuah kejadian dasar yang sebelumnya telah dimulai, dan Simple Past Tense digunakan untuk memperkenalkan sebuah kejadian baru dimana kejadian dasar masih sedang berlangsung. Contoh:
- I was walking in the park when it started to rain. – “Walking in the park” adalah situasi dasar, and “it started to rain” adalah kejadian baru yang terjadi setelah itu.
- It was raining so I ran back home.
- While I was running, the rain stopped.
- It wasn’t raining, so I walked in the park again.
Perlu diperhatikan bahwa jika kita ingin menunjukkan bahwa sebuah situasi terjadi setelah situasi lainnya telah berakhir, kita biasanya menggunakan Simple Past Tense saja. Contoh:
- Yesterday I walked in the park, it started to rain, I ran back home, and the rain stopped.
