Simple Past
Simple Past
[VERB+ed] or irregular verbs
Examples:
· You called Debbie.
· Did you call Debbie?
· You did not call Debbie.
USE 1 Completed Action in the Past
Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past. Sometimes, the speaker may not actually mention the specific time, but they do have one specific time in mind.
Examples:
· I saw a movie yesterday.
· I didn't see a play yesterday.
· Last year, I traveled to Japan.
· Last year, I didn't travel to Korea.
· Did you have dinner last night?
· She washed her car.
· He didn't wash his car.
USE 2 A Series of Completed Actions
We use the Simple Past to list a series of completed actions in the past. These actions happen 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.
Examples:
· I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to swim.
· He arrived from the airport at 8:00, checked into the hotel at 9:00, and met the others at 10:00.
· Did you add flour, pour in the milk, and then add the eggs?
USE 3 Duration in Past
The Simple Past can be used with a duration which starts and stops in the past. A duration is a longer action often indicated by expressions such as: for two years, for five minutes, all day, all year, etc.
Examples:
· I lived in Brazil for two years.
· Shauna studied Japanese for five years.
· They sat at the beach all day.
· They did not stay at the party the entire time.
· We talked on the phone for thirty minutes.
· A: How long did you wait for them?
B: We waited for one hour.
B: We waited for one hour.
USE 4 Habits in the Past
The Simple Past can also be used to describe a habit which stopped in the past. It can have the same meaning as "used to." To make it clear that we are talking about a habit, we often add expressions such as: always, often, usually, never, when I was a child, when I was younger, etc.
Examples:
· I studied French when I was a child.
· He played the violin.
· He didn't play the piano.
· Did you play a musical instrument when you were a kid?
· She worked at the movie theater after school.
· They never went to school, they always skipped class.
USE 5 Past Facts or Generalizations
The Simple Past can also be used to describe past facts or generalizations which are no longer true. As in USE 4 above, this use of the Simple Past is quite similar to the expression "used to."
Examples:
· She was shy as a child, but now she is very outgoing.
· He didn't like tomatoes before.
· Did you live in Texas when you were a kid?
· People paid much more to make cell phone calls in the past.
IMPORTANT When-Clauses Happen First
Clauses are groups of words which have meaning but are often not complete sentences. Some clauses begin with the word "when" such as "when I dropped my pen..." or "when class began..." These clauses are called when-clauses, and they are very important. The examples below contain when-clauses.
Examples:
· When I paid her one dollar, she answered my question.
· She answered my question when I paid her one dollar.
When-clauses are important because they always happen first when both clauses are in the Simple Past. Both of the examples above mean the same thing: first, I paid her one dollar, and then, she answered my question. It is not important whether "when I paid her one dollar" is at the beginning of the sentence or at the end of the sentence. However, the example below has a different meaning. First, she answered my question, and then, I paid her one dollar.
Example:
· I paid her one dollar when she answered my question.
ADVERB PLACEMENT
The examples below show the placement for grammar adverbs such as: always, only, never, ever, still, just, etc.
Examples:
· You just called Debbie.
· Did you just call Debbie?
ACTIVE / PASSIVE
Examples:
· Tom repaired the car. Active
· The car was repaired by Tom. Passive
The difference between words: look, seem, sound, feel
How are today? Are you fine? I hope both of you are enjoy and happy.
In English, we often use the words “look”, “seem”, “sound” and “feel” to describe our feelings about certain situations, but sometimes it is confusing as to which is the appropriate one to use in each situation. That’s what I’d like to write about today.
Let’s start with the easiest one: “look”. We use “look” when talking about something that we can physically see with our eyes. For example:
The Difference betwen "Always and Forever"
Dear All,
How are you today?
Ok, recently I had explained about “expecting” and “look forward to”.
And In this occasion I want to try to explain “what is the difference between words “always” and “forever” “
The difference between past tense and past perfect tense
Hi All,
What up?
Yesterday I had written about “The difference between always and forever”
And today I’ll try to explain something which is very confusing for many students, when to use the past tense and past perfect tense.
The difference between words: fun, funny and interesting
Hi All,
This morning I have three adjectives which are closely related but have different meanings in English.
These words are “fun”, Funny” and “interesting”
Ok, lets to start find the difference:
v The word “fun” is used when we want to talk about enjoying ourselves or having a good time.
For example:
The word "Would" has various uses in the english language
Hi All,
How are you today? Good?
As my email before, today is no different. I want to try to write the something important for me.
Of course by writing this newsletter I hope my English will improve tremendously.
And for today newsletter, I want to go over about a world that has various uses In the English language. That word is “Would”
The word “would” has six basic functions. I’ll try to explain each one and give you examples.
Let’s start--à
The Difference between "because" and "since"
Hi All,
How are you today? Super? I hope so.
Lately the weather is rainy. Don’t forget to keep your healthy so you can do your activity with enjoy and happy.
Few days ago I confused when I want to talk about something using word “because” and “since”.
I think this is very easy for all of you, but it is different for me as I said before.
So the topic for today’s newsletter is “the difference between because and since”
Ok. No problem, I hope by writing the article about it, I will understand and the article can increase your knowledge.
Let’s start.
