Answer 2

Quando usar were ou was? tem a ver com o verbo to be no passado,em inglês há momento que o certo – de acordo com a gramática – é dizer I were e não I was.

Assim, nós dizemos:

I was

you were

he was

she was

it was

we were

you were

they were

Por exemplo,

I was single when I lived there. (Eu era solteira quando morei lá.)

Were you there last night? (Você estava lá ontem à noite?)

She wasn’t home. (Ela não estava em casa.)

They weren’t good students. (Elas não eram boas alunas.)

Nesse caso, o uso de were ou was não é anda complicado. Afinal, é só lembrar que se trata do verbo to be no past simple.
