The past simple: Irregular verbs Many verbs have irregular positive past simple forms. There are no spelling rules for these forms, so you need to learn them by heart. Example: do → did; build → built; come → came; find → found; read → read; see → saw; tell → told; take → took; go → went; win → won; write → wrote; be → was / were |
Thì quá khứ đơn: Động từ bất quy tắc Rất nhiều động từ có dạng quá khứ phân từ bất quy tắc. Không có bất cứ quy tắc, trật từ viết nào cho những dạng này, vì vậy bạn cần học thuộc lòng chúng. Ví dụ: do → did; build → built; come → came; find → found; read → read; see → saw; tell → told; take → took; go → went; win → won; write → wrote; be → was / were |

The past simple vs. the past continuous using when and while We often use the past continuous with the past simple. We use the past continuous to talk about an action in progress, and the past simple to talk about an action that interrupts it.
Example: - We were walking in the park when it started to rain. - When the teacher asked me a question, I wasn't listening. |
Kết hợp thì quá khứ đơn và quá khứ tiếp diễn, sử dụng when hoặc while Chúng ta thường sử dụng kết hợp thì quá khứ đơn và thì quá khứ tiếp diễn. Chúng ta dùng thì quá khứ tiếp diễn để diễn tả một hành động đang xảy ra và thì quá khứ đơn để diễn tả một hành động làm gián đoạn hành động đó. Ví dụ: - Chúng tôi đang đi bộ trong công viên thì trời bắt đầu mưa. - Khi họ đang ăn tối thì điện thoại reo. |
