MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
1 min • 1 pt
When mum came home, the boys ___________ (not play) football because it ___________ (rain).
weren't playing, was raining
didn't play, rained
weren't playing, rained
Answer explanation
Mum coming home is a brief action, it ends quickly. The others are both continuous actions. Not playing - eitav voorm jääb samuti kestvasse minevikku (past continuous). Kui jääb segaseks, proovige jaatavas vormis sõnastada, ja tuleb ikkagi kasutada kestvat minevikku: When mum came home, the boys were playing football because it was raining (äkki neile meeldib vihmas jalkat mängida :).
