Usamos o Past Continuous (também conhecido como Past Progressive) para falar sobre ações ou eventos que estavam em progresso no passado. Este é formado pelas formas do verbo To Be no passado (was/were, na afirmativa e wasn't/weren'n na negativa) + o verbo principal no gerúndio, ou seja, com o uso do -ING. Exemplo:

• She was working yesterday night. (Ela estava trabalhando ontem a noite).
• He wasn't paying attention. (Ele não estava prestando atenção.)
• Were they cleaning the house? (Eles estavam limpando a casa?)
