Pasado simple y continuo - 'Simple and continuous past'
El pasado continuo expresa la duracin de una accin pasada y no indica si est
terminada, mientras que el pasado simple se refiere a una accin puntual que empez y
acab en el pasado.
I worked last Saturday. Traba! el sbado pasado.
It was snowin" at #alf past four yesterday. Estaba ne$ando a las cuatro y media de ayer
%no #ab&a acabado'.
Diferencias pasado simple y continuo
( El pasado simple describe acciones acabadas y el pasado continuo no especifica si laacciones finalizaron o no, sino que enfatiza que estaban en desarrollo.
)e tra$elled around t#e world. *ia por todo el mundo.
I was tra$ellin" around t#e world. Estaba $iaando por todo el mundo.
+ ara acciones simultneas-
a' Si las acciones son consecuti$as, los $erbos irn en pasado simple.
s I saw #er I left t#e room. /uando la $& de! la #abitacin.
b' /uando #ay un pasado simple y uno continuo este 0ltimo resalta la duracin de
la accin.
s I was watc#in" t$ t#e telep#one ran". /uando estaba $iendo la tele son el tel!fono.
c' Si las dos acciones tienen lu"ar durante un mismo periodo de tiempo se usar el
pasado continuo en las dos.

la t$.
1 ara #ablar de acciones #abituales se suele usar el pasado simple.

temporalmente.
