Czas Past Simple (przeszły prosty), jak sama nazwa wskazuje, opisuje wydarzenia z przeszłości i jest prosty w tworzeniu. Potrzebujemy tylko czasownika w II formie, który wstawiamy po podmiocie i zdanie gotowe.
W tym czasie także pojawia się pomocniczy operator, za pomocą którego tworzymy pytania i przeczenia - tym razem jest to słówko did. Operator jest identyczny we wszystkich osobach. Pytanie tworzymy wstawiając did przed podmiot zdania a czasownik... wraca do pierwszej formy!
Jak to zazwyczaj bywa - jest też wyjątek - czasownik to be tworzy pytanie przez zmianę szyku i obywa się bez operatora.
Przeczenia:
Tutaj także używamy operatora did w połączeniu z not.
to be, jak się można spodziewać zachowuje się inaczej.
Past Simple opisuje jedynie wydarzenia z przeszłości - nie ma związku z chwilą obecną.
