Penjelasan Was and Were dalam Bahasa Inggris
Was and Were
Pada materi sebelumnya telah dibahas mengenai simple past tense dalam bentuk verbal sentence sekarang kita akan membahas simple past tense yang memakai "was dan were" atau dengan kata lain dalam bentuk nominal sentence. Jika dalam simple present tense kita mengenal adanya is, am, are maka dalam simple past tense kita mengenal adanya "was dan were". Saya yakin semua sudah pada mengetahui bahwa dalam simple past tense kita menggunakan verb bentuk ke 2, dan bentuk kedua dari is, am, are adalah was dan were.
is, am --------------- was
are ---------------- were
Contoh:
Simple present tense simple past tense
I am a student. I was a student.
She is clever. She was clever.
Toni is in the bedroom. Toni was in the bedroom 2 hours ago.
Perhatikan contoh di atas, jika kita mengatakan "I am a student" berarti sekarang ini si subjek memang seorang pelajar, jika kalimat "I was a student" berarti sekarang si subjek bukan seorang pelajar lagi dengan kata lain si subjek mengatakan bahwa pada masa lampau ia adalah seorang pelajar.
"Toni is in the bedroom" berarti sekarang ini memang Toni sedang berada di kamar. "Toni was in the bedroom 2 hours ago" berarti dua jam yang lalu Toni ada di kamar sekarang dan sekarang tidak lagi.
