1) Verbo To Be (Simple Past)

Os verbos WAS e WERE são as flexibilizações do verbo to be para o tempo do passado simples (Simple Past). Sua tradução literal pode ser, respectivamente: era/estava e eram/estavam.

A regra para definição do uso de um ou de outro é de acordo com o sujeito a que o verbo está se referindo.

Se o sujeitos são representados pelos pronomes:

• I (Eu)
• He (ele)
• She (ela)
• It (isso, isto, aquilo..)

o verbo to be deve ser flexionado para a forma WAS.

Se o sujeitos são representados pelos pronomes:

• You (Você)
• We (nós)
• You (vocês)
• They (eles/elas)

o verbo to be deve ser flexionado para a forma WERE.

(2) Past Continuous

O tempo do Past Continuous é utilizado em inglês para indicar:

• ações que aconteceram ao mesmo tempo no passado;
• uma ação contínua no passado, que ocorria quando uma ação pontual ocorreu;
• uma ação contínua habitual que ocorria.

Para utilizar corretamente o Past Continuous devemos adicionar o verbo TO BE no Simple Past (Was/Were) e o verbo principal com a terminação ING.

Para 1ª e 3ª pessoa do singular (I e HE/SHE/IT), utiliza-se WAS, enquanto para as demais(YOU, WE, THEY), utiliza-se o WERE.

O verbo TO BE é flexionado de acordo com o sujeito:

• I - WAS
• YOU - WERE
• HE/SHE/IT - WAS
• WE - WERE
• YOU - WERE
• THEY - WERE

Na forma negativa o NOT aparece depois do verbo TO BE, e pode aparecer na forma contracta (Wasn't / Weren't).
