I am this day years old when I learned what past perfect's is supposed to be. I always used it as a 'cool' version of simple past. Thank you for enlightening me on this :)

Respected Ma'am, being the greatest grammarian of this generation, you are earnestly entreated with folded to let me know which of the following sentences is correct --(A) It had been raining all night (B)It rained all night.

@inara225 3 ай бұрын

Hi, I’m a student too, I think that in the first sentence you are still in the night, it’s like (--raining all night-) ------you--- In the second sentence, it’s just the past: (--rained all night--) --------------you

@user-ry1te9ld2b 6 ай бұрын

Your effort is very much appriciated. But do you mean that we can't use/ before/ or /after /with the past perfect at all ? For we have been told by a teacher /not native/to use p.p. either before BEFORE or after AFTER. Please, tell me for you are trusted.

Hello Ms. Aga: what is the difference between two questions - What did you do yesterday? - What were you doing yesterday? Can I use it interchangeable? Could you explain them for me how and when to use them? Thank you.

@samnangoeurn7026 7 ай бұрын

- What did you do yesterday day? + Is talking about the events or situations in the past that completely finished. - What were you doing yesterday? + It shows us that this question is asking for the answer which relates to the past events that were happening nom stop nor have not finished in thes past.

You make it easy but a foreign student needs to practice a lot to learn the present and past perfect.

"My train had left before I got to the station." This is perfectly correct sentence. I don't get why you confuse your viewer. Of course you don't have to use past perfect in this kind of sentence but it doesn't mean that this sentence is incorrect.
