suj aux verbo

You were talking to somebody. Estabas hablando con alguien.
He was listening to something. Estaba escuchando algo. (el)
She was reading something. Estaba leyendo algo. (ella)
It was going somewhere. ba a algun sitio.

Aota Con el pasado continuo se utilizan dos verbos la Iorma correspondiente del verbo "to be" como
verbo auxilar y la Iorma basica del verbo (el inIinitivo) como verbo principal (mas "ing").
Aota Normalmente, simplemente se aade "ing" al verbo para Iormar el verbo principal (Llamado
"presente participio" por unos y Iorma "-ing" por otros). En los verbos de una sola silaba que acaban en
una vocal y una consonante, se dobla la consonante "sit" "sitting". En los verbos que acaban en una
vocal, una consonante y "e", se quita la "e" y se reemplaza con "ing" "write" "writing", "rate"
"rating", "like" "liking".
Una diferencia entre el pasado continuo y el pasado simple Algunas ideas en ingles pueden sonar un
tanto absurdas a oidos espaoles si se traducen directamente. Por ejemplo, "We were wearing something"
equivale a "Llevabamos algo puesto" y no "Estabamos llevando algo puesto", o "They were sitting"
equivale a "Estaban sentados" y no "Estaban sentandose" como en espaol.
