Learning Target
Use the past and past perfect tenses correctly in varied contexts.
Vocabulary List
Warming Up
In the following sentences, do we need the past simple form of the verb, or
the past perfect?
1
Learning About It
Use
We use Simple Past if we give past events in the order in which they occurred.
However, when we look back from a certain time in the past to tell what had happened
before, we use Past Perfect.
Normal order in the past or looking back to an event before a certain time in
the past?
2
Simple Past Past Perfect Simple
Do you just want to tell what happened sometime in the past or do you want
to tell what had happened before/up to a certain time in the past?
Signal Words
first already
then up to then
before that day
after*
Note
"After" is only used as a signal word for Past Perfect if it is followed by a subject
+ verb, meaning that one action had been completed before another action
began (the new action is in Simple Past).
Example:
After the family had had breakfast, they went to the zoo.
Example:
3
More exceptions with signal words
When
Depending on the situation, "when" can be used with Simple Past or Past
Perfect. Compare the following examples:
Example:
When Jane saw the elephants, she was amazed. (at the same time)
When Jane had seen the elephants, she wanted to see the giraffes.
(second action happened after the first action had been completed)
When Jane went to see the elephants, she had already seen the lions.
(second action had been completed when the first action took place)
Before
"Before" as well can either be used with Simple Past or Past Perfect. If the
action after "before" is a new action, use Simple Past. If the action after "before"
started (and was not completed) before a certain time in the past, use Past Perfect.
Compare the following examples:
Example:
Jane had read a lot about elephants before she went to the zoo.
Jane went to the zoo before she had finished reading her new book about
elephants.
We don't use the past perfect a lot in English, but it is useful, and it sounds very
good if you can use it correctly. Also, it's really easy to make - just the past simple of
'have' and the past participle.
4
1. A finished action before a second point in the past.
When we arrived, the film had started (= first the film started, then we
arrived). We usually use the past perfect to make it clear which action
happened first. Maybe we are already talking about something in the past
and we want to mention something else that is further back in time. This is
often used to explain or give a reason for something in the past.
I'd eaten dinner so I wasn't hungry.
It had snowed in the night, so the bus didn't arrive.
If it is clear which action happened first (if we use the words 'before' or 'after',
for example), the past perfect is optional.
The film started before we arrived / the film had started before we arrived.
2. Something that started in the past and continued up to another action or time
in the past. The past perfect tells us 'how long', just like the present perfect, but
this time the action continues up to a point in the past rather than the present.
Usually we use 'for + time'. We can also use the past perfect continuous here,
so we most often use the past perfect simple with stative verbs.
3. To talk about unreal or imaginary things in the past. In the same way that we
use the past simple to talk about unreal or imaginary things in the present, we
use the past perfect (one step back in time) to talk about unreal things in the
past. This is common in the third conditional and after 'wish'.
The formula for the past perfect tense is had + [past participle]. It doesn’t
matter if the subject is singular or plural; the formula doesn’t change.
5
When to Use the Past Perfect
So, what’s the difference between past perfect and simple past? When you’re
talking about some point in the past and want to reference an event that happened
even earlier, using the past perfect allows you to convey the sequence of the events.
It’s also clearer and more specific. Consider the difference between these two
sentences:
It’s a subtle difference, but the first sentence doesn’t tie Tootles’ act of using
washable paint to any particular moment in time; readers might interpret it as “We were
relieved that Tootles was in the habit of using washable paint.” In the second sentence,
the past perfect makes it clear that you’re talking about a specific instance of using
washable paint.
Another time to use the past perfect is when you are expressing a condition
and a result:
If I had woken up earlier this morning, I would have caught Tootles red-handed.
The past perfect is used in the part of the sentence that explains the condition
(the if-clause).
Most often, the reason to write a verb in the past perfect tense is to show that
it happened before other actions in the same sentence that are described by verbs in
the simple past tense. Writing an entire paragraph with every verb in the past perfect
tense is unusual.
Do not use the past perfect when you’re not trying to convey some sequence
of events. If your friends asked what you did after you discovered the graffiti, they
would be confused if you said:
They’d likely be wondering what happened next because using the past perfect
implies that your action of cleaning the door occurred before something else
happened, but you don’t say what that something else is. The “something else” doesn’t
always have to be explicitly mentioned, but context needs to make it clear. In this case
there’s no context, so the past perfect doesn’t make sense.
6
How to Make the Past Perfect Negative
Making the past perfect negative is simple! Just insert not between had and
[past participle].
We looked for witnesses, but the neighbors had not seen Tootles in the act.
If Tootles had not included his own name in the message, we would have no
idea who was behind it.
*Note: The past participle of “to get” is “gotten” in American English. In British English,

Keeping You in Practice
Activity 1
The past perfect is used to demonstrate an action that occurred before
another action in the past. There are usually two completed actions in the sentence;
one happens before the other.
Structures:
Subject + had + past participle form of the main verb + before + subject + simple
past tense . . . .
Identify and underline the two completed actions in the following sentences.
Activity 2
Fill the blank with the correct form of the past perfect tense.
3. Davy knew Davao City so well because he _____________ the city several
times.
Activity 3
Past Perfect Tense can be in the form of positive and negative.
The positive - make it with 'had' + the past participle (usually made by adding 'ed'
to the infinitive, but a few verbs have irregular past participles).
8
The following are examples of positive past perfect tenses, transpose them
to negative by correctly adding the word “not” to make it negative.

Learning About It
Phrases are groups of words that act as a part of speech but cannot stand
alone as a sentence. The words in phrase act together so that the phrase itself
functions as a single part of speech. Phrases can function as nouns, verbs, adjectives,
or adverbs.
Phrases can take many different forms, such as: Prepositional phrase, Verb
phrases, Adjective phrases, Adverb phrases, Noun phrases, and Verbial phrases.
Verb Phrase: This phrase contains a main verb and one or more helping verb.
These two will have a link that connects them together to define the various
times of the action in a sentence.
These are some of the common examples and the structure is auxiliary/modal
verb + auxiliary verb + auxiliary verb + main verb (as in the sentence above).
2
Clauses are group of words that have a subject and a predicate. Independent
clauses express a complete thought and can stand alone as a sentence. Subordinate
or dependent clauses can act as part of speech but depend on the rest of the sentence
to express a complete thought.

Learning About It

Other types of reading are speed reading (reading fast) and intensive reading
(reading thoroughly and comprehensively).
Now, read the following story and answer the practice tasks that follow.
Once upon a time a sparrow made friends with a crow. One day when they were
hunting for food, the crow spied some red peppers that were spread out on a mat to dry.
“Look at those peppers,” said the crow to the sparrow. “Let’s see who can eat the
most.”
“All right!” answered the sparrow.
“Then the one who wins will eat the other,” said the crow.
The sparrow laughed and agreed for he thought the crow was joking. Friends do
not eat each other. The sparrow ate each pepper fairly, but the crow cheated. For each
pepper that he ate, he hid three more under the mat without the sparrow’s seeing.
“I’ve won! Now I’m going to eat you!” said the crow.
Then at last the sparrow realized that the crow was serious.
“All right,” he said, “I’ll keep my promise. But before you eat me you must wash
your beak for everyone knows that you’re a dirty bird and eat lots of nasty things.”
“River! River!
Give me water
To wash my beak,
To make myself neat,
The sparrow to eat!”
The river replied: “You want water? Very well, but everyone says you eat nasty
things. If you want to wash your beak in my water, you must get a pot to put it in and then
you can have as much water as you like.”
“Potter! Potter!
Make me a pot
To fetch some water.
To wash my beak,
To make myself neat,
The sparrow to eat!”
The potter replied: “You want a pot? Very well, but I have no clay. Bring me some
clay and “I’ll make you a pot.”
3
The crow went to a field and began digging up clay with his beak. The earth said:
“The whole world knows that you eat rubbish and nasty things. I cannot allow you to dig
up my clay unless you use a spade.”
The crow went to the village blacksmith, who was working on a wheel. The crow
said to him:
“Blacksmith! Blacksmith!
Make me a spade
To dig some clay,
To make a pot,
To fetch some water,
To wash my beak,
To make myself neat,
The sparrow to eat!”
The blacksmith replied: “You want a spade? Very well, but you see I have no fire
in the forge. If you want me to make a spade, you must bring me some fire.”
The crow went to a farmer’s house nearby. The farmer’s wife was cooking rice in
the courtyard. The crow cried:
The farmer’s wife replied: “You want fire? Very well, but how will you carry it?”
The farmer’s wife put the fire on the crow’s back and immediately his feathers burst
into flames. The greedy crow was burnt to ashes. But the honest sparrow lived to a ripe
old age.
Task 1. Write T if the statement is true and F if it is false. Explain your answer.
