英文大問題,,,,唔該各位神人答

past continues tense :

就係你係過去做緊一樣野, 但係佢未完成架喎(in the middle oh the action)

eg.yesterday morning, tom and mary were playing tennis

我琴日朝早打緊網球

past continues tense 多數用係D做奈D GE動作上, 好似reading, watching, sleeping...

而past tense呢, 就肯定佢係完成咗(complete action)

eg.yesterday, i played tennis
我琴日打過網球

past tense多數用係一瞬間GE動作, 例如swich, thorw, hurt...

EXAMPLE:
I was walking home when I met Dan.
我回家途中遇到Dan
(撞見係一剎那GE事, 但係行路番企就好奈LU~)

I walked home after the party last night.
琴日開完P, 我番咗屋企
(你係PARTY完咗之後己經番咗屋企,
如果話 I was walking home after the party last night
可能行咗成晚都仲未番到企, 佢冇交代到你係夜晚究竟行完未)

When Karen arrived, we were having dinner
我地食緊晚飯GE時侯, karen黎到喇 : )

When Karen arrived, we had dinner
我地食完飯Karen先黎到 : (

Simple past tense 講過去發生的一件事。past continuous tense 講過去某一時刻正在發生的事。一個我常用的例子：發生命案，警察問你事發時在哪裡。你可以用 simple past tense說 I watched TV；也可以以 past continuous tense 說 I was watching TV。兩句都是說過去某一個時間看電視，但後者強調「當時正在」看電視。
