I. The simple past:
=> We use the Simple past:
1. To express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past.
2. To list a series of completed actions in the past.
S+ was /were + V-ing
S+ wasn't/ weren't + V-ing
Was / Were + S + V-ing....?

II. The Past progressive:
охо
=> We use the past progressive:
1. To express the idea that an action was happening at the specific time or to indicate that a longer
action in the past was interrupted. The interruption is usually a shorter action in the Simple past.
2. To express the idea that both actions were happening at the same time.
S+ had + V-ed2
III. The Past perfect:
QKHT
S+ hadn't + V-ed2
