​Was-Were Structure

​ When we talk about events or people in the past, the verb "to be" changes. Let's see some examples.

• I am a lawyer = Simple Present

• I was a lawyer = Simple Past

​

• You are in Istanbul = Simple Present

• You were in Istanbul = Simple Past

​Was-Were Structure

​ Did you realise that we used two different verbs? Just like we use "is" for singular nouns and "are" for plural nouns in simple present, we use "was" for singular nouns and "were" for plural nouns in simple past.

• ​I

• He

• She

• It, this, that

= Singular

• ​You

• We

• They

• These, those

= Plural
