Past Continuous Tense
The Past Continuous Tense or Progressive is used when you are describing an action that was happening in the past, but not anymore. It's formed by verb to be in the past simple tense + the action verb in the continuous tense. Examples:
When I woke up on that day, my sister was having breakfast.
They were playing soccer when it started to rain.
He was reading a book when the lights went out.
Very often, the Past Continuous Tense is used with the Past Simple. Even if you change the order of the actions, the meaning is the same. Examples:
My sister was having breakfast when I woke up.
When it started to rain, they were playing soccer.
When the lights went out, he was reading a book.
