1. Actions finished at a stated time in the past We moved out of our house last year. 2. Actions are not connected with the present He saw Jennifer Lopez 3. Actions happened one after the other (chain) I had breakfast, put on my coat and left the house

Past Continuous situations

Interrupted action in the past Specific Time as an Interruption With "always" to express annoyance or criticism Parallel actions To illustrate the atmosphere To express politeness

Past Perfect situations


The Past Perfect expresses the idea that something occurred before another action in the past. It can also show that something happened before a specific time in the past. I had never seen such a beautiful beach before I went to Kauai. With Non-Continuous Verbs and some non-continuous uses of Mixed Verbs, we use the Past Perfect to show that something started in the past and continued up until another action in the past. We had had that car for ten years before it broke down. Unlike with the Present Perfect, it is possible to use specific time words or phrases with the Past Perfect. Although this is possible, it is usually not necessary. She had visited her Japanese relatives once in 1993 before she moved in with them in 1996.

Past Perfect Continuous situations


We use the Past Perfect Continuous to show that something started in the past and continued up until another time in the past. Using the Past Perfect Continuous before another action in the past is a good way to show cause and effect. We use it when reporting things said in the past.
