Past Continuous[edit | edit source]
We use the past continuous tense to describe a continuous action that was taking place at a specific time in the past.
In English, this tense is formed by using the auxiliary “was” or “were,” followed by the root form of the main verb + “-ing.” For example:
- [was / were] + eat + ing = was/were eating
In Hindi, you would replace these two elements with one of these terms:
अमर सेब खा रहा था।
amar Seb khaa rahaa THaa. |
“Amar was eating an apple.” |
पारुल स्कूल जा रही थी।
paaruL SkuuL jaa rahii THii. |
“Parul was going to school.” |
बच्चे सो रहे थे।
bacce So rahe THe. |
“The kids were sleeping |
Past Perfect Tense[edit | edit source]
The past perfect tense is used to express actions that were performed and completed in the past.
In English, you would form this tense by using the auxiliary “had,” followed by the third form of the main verb:
- [had] + eaten = had eaten
In Hindi, the auxiliary “had” is replaced by one of these terms:
- चुका था (cukaa THaa)
- चुकी थी (cukii THii)
- चुके थे (cuke THe)
For example:
अमर सेब खा चुका था।
amar Seb khaa cukaa THaa. |
“Amar had eaten an apple.” |
पारुल स्कूल जा चुकी थी।
paaruL SkuuL jaa cukii THii. |
“Parul had gone to school.” |
बच्चे सो चुके थे।
bacce So cuke THe. |
“The kids had slept.” |
