SIMPLE PAST
 TO BE (WAS/ WERE)

The verb to be in present has 3 forms: AM, IS and ARE. But in the past tense it only
has 2 forms: WAS and WERE.

I You
HE
WAS SHE WERE we
IT
They
So, now you know which what subject goes WAS and WERE respectively. But as
always, the past tense possesses positive, negative, and interrogative structures.

 Positive structure
Subject + WAS/ WERE + adjective.
Examples:
 I was happy.
 You were excited.
 He was tired.
 She was hungry.
 It was sunny.
 We were grateful.
 They were friendly.
Subject + WAS/ WERE + Place.

Examples:
  I was at the park.
 You were at the store.
 He was in the classroom.
 She was at the beach.
 It was in the garden.
 We were at the party.
 They were at the museum.

 Negative structure
Subject + WAS/ WERE + NOT+ adjective/ place
Or

Subject + WASN´T/ WEREN´T + NOT+ adjective/ place

Examples:
 I wasn’t sad.
 You weren’t bored.
 He wasn’t angry.
 She wasn’t afraid.
 It wasn’t cold.
 We weren’t disappointed.

there was or there were and so much more.
