    THÌ QUÁ KHỨ TIẾP DIỄN

                                      (Past continuous tense)

I- CẤU TRÚC CỦA THÌ QUÁ KHỨ TIẾP DIỄN

1. Khẳng định:

S + was/were + V-ing

            Trong đó:         S (subject): chủ ngữ

                                    V-ing: động từ thêm “–ing”

CHÚ Ý:

– S = I/ He/ She/ It  + was

– S = We/ You/ They + were

Ví dụ:

– She was cooking dinner at 5 p.m yesterday.(Cô ấy đang nấu bữa tối vào lúc 5h chiều hôm qua)

– They were playing badminton when I came yesterday. (Họ đang chơi cầu lông khi tôi đến ngày hôm qua.)

2. Phủ định:

S + wasn’t/ weren’t + V-ing

Câu phủ định tả chỉ cần thêm “not” ngay sau “to be”.

CHÚ Ý:

– was not = wasn’t

– were not = weren’t

Ví dụ:

– He wasn’t working when his boss came yesterday.

– We weren’t watching TV at 9 p.m yesterday.

3. Câu hỏi:

Was/ Were + S + V-ing ?

                        Trả lời: Yes, I/ he/ she/ it + was. – No, I/ he/ she/ it + wasn’t.

                                    Yes, we/ you/ they + were. – No, we/ you/ they + weren’t.

Câu hỏi ta chỉ cần đảo “to be” lên trước chủ ngữ.

Ví dụ:

Was your mother going to the market at 7 a.m yesterday?

            Yes, she was./ No, she wasn’t.

Were they staying with you when I called you yesterday?

            Yes, they were./ No, they weren’t.

II- CÁCH SỬ DỤNG CỦA THÌ QUÁ KHỨ TIẾP DIỄN

1. Dùng để diễn tả một hành động đang xảy ra tại một thời điểm xác định trong quá khứ.

Ví dụ:

– At 12 o’clock yesterday, we were having lunch. (Vào lúc 12h ngày hôm qua, chúng tôi đang ăn trưa.)

Ta thấy “lúc 12h ngày hôm qua” là một giờ cụ thể trong quá khứ, vào tại thời điểm này thì việc “ăn trưa” đang diễn ra nên ta sử dụng thì quá khứ tiếp diễn.

– At this time 2 days ago, I was travelling in America. (Vào thời gian này cách đây 2 ngày, tôi đang du lịch bên Mỹ.)

Ta thấy “vào thời gian này cách đây 2 ngày” là một thời gian cụ thể trong quá khứ, vào thời điểm này thì việc “du lịch” đang diễn ra nên ta sử dụng thì quá khứ tiếp diễn.

2. Dùng để diễn tả một hành động đang xảy ra thì một hành động khác xen vào.

– Hành động đang xảy ra chia thì quá khứ tiếp diễn, hành động xen vào chia thì quá khứ đơn.

Ví dụ:

– He was chatting with his friend when his mother came into the room. (Cậu ta đang tán gẫu với bạn khi mẹ cậu ta vào phòng.)

Ta thấy có hai hành động đều xảy ra trong quá khứ: “tán gẫu với bạn” và “mẹ vào phòng”. Vào thời điểm đó hành động “tán gẫu với bạn” đang diễn ra thì bị xen ngang bởi hành động “mẹ vào phòng”. Vậy hành động đang diễn ra ta sẽ chia thì quá khứ tiếp diễn.

– They were working when we got there. (Họ đang làm việc khi chúng tôi tới đó.)

Ta thấy hành động “làm việc” đang diễn ra và hành động “chúng tôi đến” xen vào. Hai hành động này đều xảy ra trong quá khứ.

3. Diễn tả hai hành động đồng thời xảy ra tại một thời điểm trong quá khứ, trong câu có “while”.

Tại một thời điểm trong quá khứ khi có 2 hành động đồng thời đang diễn ra sẽ chia cả hai hành động đó ở thì quá khứ tiếp diễn.

Ví dụ:

– My mother was cooking lunch while my father was cleaning the floor at 10 am yesterday. (Mẹ tôi đang nấu ăn trong khi bố tôi đang lau nhà lúc 10h sang hôm qua.)

– I was studying English while my brother was listening to music last night. (Tôi đang học tiếng Anh trong khi anh trai tôi đang nghe nhạc tối hôm qua.)

III- DẤU HIỆU NHẬN BIẾT

+ Trong câu có các trạng từ chỉ thời gian trong quá khứ kèm theo thời điểm xác định.

– at + giờ + thời gian trong quá khứ (at 12 o’clock last night,…)

– at this time + thời gian trong quá khứ. (at this time two weeks ago, …)

– in + năm (in 2000, in 2005)

– in the past (trong quá khứ)

+ Trong câu có “when” khi diễn tả một hành động đang xảy ra và một hành động khác xen vào.

IV- CÁC CHÚ Ý KHI THÊM ĐUÔI “-ING”.

Thông thường ta chỉ cần cộng thêm “-ing” vào sau động từ. Nhưng có một số chú ý như sau:

1. Với động từ tận cùng là MỘT chữ “e”:

– Ta bỏ “e” rồi thêm “-ing”.

Ví dụ:             write – writing                      type – typing             come – coming

– Tận cùng là HAI chữ “e” ta không bỏ “e” mà vẫn thêm “-ing” bình thường.

Ví du: agree – agreeing                   see – seeing

2. Với động từ có MỘT âm tiết, tận cùng là MỘT PHỤ ÂM, trước là MỘT NGUYÊN ÂM

– Ta nhân đôi phụ âm cuối rồi thêm “-ing”.

Ví dụ:             stop – stopping                     get – getting              put – putting

– CHÚ Ý: 

Các trường hợp ngoại lệ:

beggin – beginning               travel – travelling                

prefer – preferring              permit – permitting

3.  Với động từ tận cùng là “ie”

– Ta đổi “ie” thành “y” rồi thêm “-ing”.

Ví dụ:             lie – lying                  die – dying

V- BÀI TẬP THÌ QUÁ KHỨ TIẾP DIỄN

[NEW] Past continuous: estrutura, usos, exemplos | past continuous tense – NATAVIGUIDES

Na língua inglesa, o past continuous descreve ações e/ou eventos que estavam em progressão no passado, por isso, também é chamado de past progressive em algumas gramáticas|1||2|. Existem igualmente outros usos para esse tempo verbal, por exemplo, quando temos duas ações e uma é interrompida, ou, ainda, para enfatizar certas ações no passado.

Leia também: Irregular verbs – lista dos verbos irregulares em inglês

Uso do past continuous

A progressão no past continous é um aspecto relevante para entender-se o seu uso, que se diferencia de outros tempos verbais no passado. Assim, deve-se levar em consideração que as ações no past continuous têm um caráter de andamento temporal passado, referem-se a alguma coisa que estávamos no meio de fazer/conduzir|1|. Pode ser usado também para distinguir duas ações passadas: uma que estava em pleno desenvolvimento quando outra a interrompeu para ocupar seu lugar.

Além disso, usamos esse tempo verbal para enfatizar ações que estavam ocorrendo no passado. Por fim, outra possibilidade de uso desse tempo relaciona-se com ações repetidas e temporárias no passado. Observe alguns exemplos:

  1. They were watching a film when the power went out.
    (Eles estavam assistindo a um filme quando a energia acabou.)

  2. My mom was working the whole night.
    (Minha mãe estava trabalhando a noite toda.)

  3. Last month, I was organizing our party.
    (Mês passado, eu estava organizando nossa festa.)

Agora vamos classificar os exemplos segundo os usos do past continuous. No primeiro exemplo, estamos diante de duas ações. Na primeira oração, a ação estava em desenvolvimento quando a energia acabou, interrompendo o que eles estavam fazendo. No exemplo 2, tem-se uma ênfase ou destaque para a ação que estava ocorrendo, isto é, o fato de a mãe ter trabalhado a noite toda. O terceiro exemplo mostra uma ação temporária no passado.

Regras do past continuous

Por ser um tempo verbal composto, ele é formado pelo verbo auxiliar to be no simple past + present participle do verbo principal, sendo essa a estrutura das orações afirmativas. Cada um desses verbos tem uma função específica. O verbo to be indica que se trata de um tempo passado, enquanto o particípio do verbo principal atua na aspectualidade das ações que têm uma duratividade e não são pontuais, tal qual ocorre no simple past|2|. Uma frase negativa nesse tempo verbal é formada pela adição do not depois do verbo to be no simple past. Para orações interrogativas, basta inverter o verbo principal e o sujeito.

AFFIRMATIVE

NEGATIVE

INTERROGATIVE

I

was

(estudando inglês).

I

wasn’t

(was not)

Was

Was

she

We

They

 

were

We

You

They

 

weren’t

(were not)

 

Were

we

you

they

 

Quando temos duas ações no passado, uma no past continuous e outra no simple past, devemos atentar-nos para o uso de when (quando) e de while (enquanto). O primeiro acompanha as orações que estão no simple past, e o segundo acompanha as orações que estão no past continuous|2|.

Veja os seguintes exemplos:

  1. I was reading a book when the door opened.
    (Eu estava lendo um livro quando a porta abriu-se.)

  2. While he was sleeping, I made dinner.
    (Enquanto ele estava dormindo, eu fiz o jantar.)

Levando-se em consideração as regras estruturais do past continuous, basta praticar com alguns exemplos pessoais. Observe os que seguem como modelo:

  1. Were you having a party yesterday? No, we weren’t. We were studying until late for our test on Monday.
    (Vocês estavam festejando ontem? Não, não estávamos. Nós estávamos estudando até tarde para nossa prova na segunda-feira.)

  2. She wasn’t listening to music when the dog barked.
    (Ela não estava escutando música quando o cachorro latiu.)

  3. It was raining a lot yesterday morning, but I had so much to do that I couldn’t enjoy it.
    (Estava chovendo muito ontem de manhã, mas eu tinha tanta coisa para fazer que eu não pude aproveitar.)

Não pare agora… Tem mais depois da publicidade 😉

Diferença entre past perfect continuous e past perfect

Normalmente, os tempos perfeitos em inglês têm uma conexão com o presente. No entanto, os tempos verbais past perfect e past perfect continuous têm relação estreita com o passado. O primeiro trata da relação entre duas ações passadas, mostrando que uma ocorreu antes da outra. A oração que contém o past perfect é a que ocorreu primeiramente. Esse tempo verbal é formado pelo verbo had + past participle|2|.

Por outro lado, o past perfect continuous também expressa uma relação entre duas ações passadas, mas o seu foco está na duração/desenvolvimento da própria ação passada. Formado pelo verbo had + been + present participle (-ing)|2|.

  1. She had been working. She was glad about it.
    (Ela estava trabalhando. Ela ficou feliz a respeito disso.)

  2. She had worked. She looked glad about it.
    (Ela tinha trabalhado. Ela parecia feliz a respeito disso.)

Veja que, no exemplo com o past perfect continuous (1), o foco está na progressão da ação. Enquanto no exemplo 2, com o past perfect, o foco está no resultado, ao diferenciar-se esses dois tempos verbais.|1|

( ) When you are talking about something which continued to happen before and after a particular time. (Past continuous)

Choose the alternative that corresponds to the right order.

a) T – F – F

b) T – F – T

c) F – T – F

d) F – F – T

Past Continuous Tense ( Past Progressive) – English grammar tutorial video lesson


Past continuous tense video lesson. This tutorial is about the past continuous. In this lesson I’m going to show you how to form a past continuous and when to use a past continuous but before we get started, it’s good to know how to conjugate the verb ‘to be’
in it’s past tense.
For the singular forms:
I was, you were, he was, she was and it was.
For the plural forms
we were, you were, they were.
It’s also good to note that when I say a vowel I mean an a, e, i, o or u
Consonants are all the other letters in the alphabet.
Now let’s get started. Take a look at these sentences:
I was talking on the phone
We were cookin dinner.
Both these sentences are in the past continuous tense. How to form the past continuous? We use the past tense of the verb to be so either was or were the base form of the verb and ‘ing’
I was working late.
You were talking too fast.
He was watching television.
She was walking to school.
It was raining.
For the plural forms we do the same.
We were singing a song.
You were doing your homework.
They were looking for a hotel.
Now we need to pay extra attention to verbs that end in an ‘e’, such as take, make and close. These verbs drop their ‘e.’
For example:
I was taking the bus to school
He was making dinner.
They were closing the window.
Please note that these verbs no longer have their ‘e’. We also need to pay attention to verbs that have one syllable end in a consonant and are preceeded by a vowel, because they double their final consonant. These verbs are verbs such as sit,
get and run. Take a look at the examples:
I was sitting outside.
You were running fast.
It was getting late.
We were letting ourselves go.
They were swimming in the river.
Let’s have a look at the past continuous in questions. Again we used a past simple
form of the verb ‘to be.’ was or were. The base form of the verb and ‘ing.’
Was I getting close?
Were you running late?
Was he taking a bus?
Was she playing tennis?
Was it snowing?
For the plural forms we do the same.
Were we going in the right direction?
Were you arriving by ferry?
Were they eating their lunch?
Now let’s have a look at the past continuous in negations. Again we use the past simple form of the verb to be. So either was or were but we add ‘not’ to it contracting it into wasn’t or weren’t the base form and ‘ing.’
For example:
I wasn’t waiting for you
You weren’t looking for me.
He wasn’t sleeping late.
She wasn’t talking on the phone.
It wasn’t freezing.
For the pural forms,
We weren’t putting up a tent
You weren’t speaking at the same time
They weren’t cutting paper.
Now let’s have a look and when to use a past continuous. First we use the past continuous for a temporary activity in the past. It started in the past and it was finished in the past.
I was watching television at that moment.
It was raining last night.
They were swimming in the river yesterday.
We want to emphasize that it lasted for some time. We also use the past continuous for a temporary activity in the past interrupted by a short action. This short action is usually expressed by the past simple.
I was watching television when he called.
It was raining when the car broke down.
They were swimming,, when they saw a crocodile.
We also use a past continuous for something that was planned before a certain time in the future. For example:
I was flying to Dubai but his meeting was cancelled.
Weren’t you meeting her at the airport yesterday?
They were going to that concert, but her car broke down.
I thank you for your attention.
