PAST PERFECT

The Past Perfect tense is used to describe an action that was completed before another action in the past.

We use the Past Perfect tense to indicate that one past action occurred before another past action.

The structure is: Subject + had + past participle (e.g., I had eaten).

The past participle of 'go' is 'gone'.

The past participle of 'write' is 'written'.

To form a negative sentence, use: Subject + had not (hadn't) + past participle (e.g., I hadn't seen).

I had finished my homework before dinner.

Common connectors include 'because', 'as soon as', and 'after'.

Past Perfect indicates an action completed before another past action, while Simple Past describes an action that happened at a specific time in the past.

To ask a question, use: Had + subject + past participle? (e.g., Had you eaten?).
