PAST PROGRESSIVE TENSE

The PAST PROGRESSIVE TENSE indicates continuing action, something that was happening, going on, at some point in the past. This tense is formed with the helping "to be" verb, in the past tense, plus the present participle of the verb (with an  -ing  ending): I  was riding  my bike all day yesterday. Joel  was being  a terrible role model for his younger brother.

Singular Plural I was walking we were walking you were walking you were walking he/she/it was walking they were walking Singular Plural I was sleepin

The imperfect (l'imparfait) is a simple tense used to refer to an ongoing or habitual action in the past and describes incomplete actions, situations, or events in the past. The plus‐que‐parfait  is the compound form of the imperfect (the imperfect of the correct helping verb is followed by the past participle of the verb indi
