Grammar – Part 2 –
the Past

Recapitulation:
Past Simple – Verleden tijd -> simpele vorm: I worked/he
worked. Gebruik nooit een –s in de verleden tijd.
Examples:
‘We went out for a drink last night’
Vorm: hele werkwoord + -ed bij regelmatige
werkwoorden zoals [I play -> I played] maar bij
onregelmatige werkwoorden eigen unieke vorm [I teach
-> I taught]
Echter, in vraagzinnen en ontkennende zinnen gebruik
v/h hulpwerkwoord ‘did’. N.B. -> na hulpwerkwoord
‘did’ altijd het hele w.w. gebruiken!

John wrote an e-mail yesterday

Key Words Past Simple!
Time references:
- yesterday
- last week, last year, last month, last Christmas, etc.
- in 2004, in 1969, etc.
- two weeks ago, 4 years ago, etc.
- na: ‘when’



* Gebruik:
- Als iets in het verleden plaatsvond en afgelopen is!
- Wanneer aangegeven is WANNEER iets is gebeurd [yesterday, last
week, see other keywords above]
- wanneer de zin begint met ‘when’, bijna altijd Past
Simple [“when I was young”, “when did you go home?”]
Dus: N-E “hij heeft vorige week een brief geschreven” = “he
wrote a letter last week”.

Past Continuous – verleden tijd -> I was working/you
were working
*Examples:
- ‘They were listening to a new song when I rang’
- ‘Look at this photo: the sun was shining that day!’
- ‘Were you doing your homework while I was
chatting online?’
Vorm:
Was/were+ hele w.w. + ing-vorm
Bij vragende vorm en ontkennende vorm was/were +
not + ing-vorm (omdat ‘to be’ al functioneert als een
hulpwerkwoord en dus niet nog eens ‘do’ als
hulpwerkwoord nodig heeft)

Keywords Past Continuous:
-while
-when [N.B. ‘when’ is dus ook een sleutelwoord v/d Past Continuous
maar komt dan voor in een zin met de Past Continuous EN de Past
Simple en wordt dan ook weer opgevolgd door de Past Simple [see
example 2 above -> came]
-as


*Gebruik:
- als iets in het verleden enige tijd voortduurde

Examples: As I was crossing the street, I fell and broke my leg.
What were you doing when the thieves came into your house?
NOTA BENE!
De zogenaamde ‘state verbs’, gezien in
de Present Continuous worden ook niet
in de Past Continuous gebruikt.

ook niet I was hating, etc
