Past Perfect - Diagram

We use the Past Perfect for an action which was completed before a special point of time in the past.

 

Example:
I had already eaten by the time I got home.

We often use the Past Perfect together with the Simple Past. The action which was completed before the other action began is put into Past Perfect.


 
Example:
Ilham had already left  when we got there.-à Past perfect + when + simple past
Ilham had left before we got there. à Past perfect + Before + simple past

Past Progressive - Spelling

Be careful with some words when adding -ing to the infinitive.

1) consonant after a short, stressed vowel at the end of the word

Double the consonant.
sit – he was sitting
put - he was putting
If the consonant is not stressed, we do not double it:
benefit - benefiting (Here we stress the first 'e', not the 'i'.)
In British English we double one -l at the end of the word:
travel - travelling

2) one -e at the end of the word

Leave out the -e.
write – he was writing
take – he was taking
BUT:
double –e: add -ing
see – he was seeing

3) verbs ending in -ie

Change 'ie' to 'y'.
lie - he was lying

4) verbs ending in -c

Change 'c' to 'ck'.
picnic - he was picnicking
