क्या आपको English बोलते समय Past Continuous Tense (was/were + verb+ing) use करने में confusion होती है?
अगर हाँ, तो यह ब्लॉग आपके लिए ही है! यहाँ हम Past Continuous Tense को step-by-step समझेंगे, simple examples के साथ, ताकि आप इसे आसानी से बोलने और लिखने में use कर सकें।

Past Continuous Tense क्या है?

Past Continuous Tense का use हम तब करते हैं, जब कोई action past में किसी समय चल रही थी।
Structure:

Subject + was/were + Verb + ing + Object/Rest of Sentence

  • Was – I, He, She, It
  • Were – You, We, They

उदाहरण:

  • I was reading a book yesterday.
  • They were playing football at 5 PM.

इसका मतलब यह हुआ कि ये action past में किसी specific समय पर हो रहा था।

Past Continuous Tense के प्रकार

A. Positive Sentences (Affirmative)

जब हम कुछ बता रहे हों कि कोई action past में चल रहा था।
Structure: Subject + was/were + Verb+ing + Object

Examples:

  • I was cooking dinner at 8 PM.
  • She was studying for her exam all night.
  • We were watching a movie yesterday evening.

B. Negative Sentences

जब हम बताना चाहते हैं कि कोई action नहीं हो रहा था।
Structure: Subject + was/were + not + Verb+ing + Object

Examples:

  • I was not sleeping at 10 PM.
  • He was not playing cricket yesterday.
  • They were not listening to the teacher.

💡 Tip: “wasn’t” = was not, “weren’t” = were not

C. Interrogative Sentences (Questions)

जब हम पूछना चाहते हैं कि कोई action past में चल रहा था या नहीं।
Structure: Was/Were + Subject + Verb+ing + Object?

Examples:

  • Was she reading a book at 7 PM?
  • Were they playing football yesterday?
  • Was I disturbing you?

Daily Life Examples – Past Continuous Tense

  1. While I was walking to school, it started raining.
  2. She was cooking when I called her.
  3. They were watching TV while I was studying.
  4. I was listening to music at 9 PM.
  5. He was talking on the phone during the meeting.

➡️ Notice करें कि हम अक्सर Past Continuous Tense को two actions together होने पर भी use करते हैं – एक action past में चल रहा था और दूसरा action interrupt कर रहा था।

Example:

  • I was reading a book when my friend called.
    (Reading = Past Continuous, Called = Simple Past)

Past Continuous Tense का Spoken English और Personality Development में Use

  1. Storytelling में Use: Past Continuous Tense आपके storytelling skills को enhance करता है।
    Example: “I was walking in the park when I saw a dog.”
  2. Job Interviews में Use: जब आपको अपनी past work experience बताना हो, तो यह tense impress कर सकता है।
    Example: “I was working on a live project when I learned new skills.”
  3. Conversation में Flow Improve करने के लिए: यह tense आपके sentences को smooth और natural बनाता है।
    Example: “While I was studying, my brother was watching TV.”

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  1. Verb + ing भूल जाना
    ❌ I was play football.
    ✅ I was playing football.
  2. Wrong use of was/were
    ❌ She were cooking.
    ✅ She was cooking.
  3. Confusing with Simple Past
    Past Continuous = action was ongoing
    Simple Past = action finished

Practice Tips

  1. हर दिन 5-10 sentences Past Continuous में लिखें।
  2. Daily life activities को describe करें – जैसे: “I was drinking tea when my phone rang.”
  3. Conversations में try करें while, when use करना।
  4. Self-assessment के लिए record करें और सुनें
