Past Continuous Tense – Corrections
Day 4 – WH-Question Corrections
🎯 Day 4 Objective
ఈ రోజు మనం:
- Past Continuous లో WH-questions ఎలా తయారు చేయాలో
- Word order mistakes తొలగించడం
- was / were + verb-ing confusion clear చేయడం
WH-Question Structure (Golden Pattern)
WH-word + was / were + subject + V-ing ?
- WH-words → what, when, where, why, how
- Verb ఎప్పుడూ -ing లోనే ఉండాలి
👉 WH-word ముందుకు వస్తుంది 👉 was / were దాని తర్వాత 👉 verb-ing చివర
❌❌ Wrong → ✅ Correct (With Explanation)
-
❌
What he was doing?
✅ What was he doing?
👉 was స్థానం తప్పు -
❌
Where they were going?
✅ Where were they going? -
❌
Why she crying?
✅ Why was she crying?
👉 helping verb missing -
❌
How he working yesterday?
✅ How was he working yesterday? -
❌
When you studying?
✅ When were you studying?
Simple Past vs Past Continuous (WH-Questions)
-
Simple Past:
❓ What did you do?
👉 పని పూర్తయ్యింది -
Past Continuous:
❓ What were you doing?
👉 పని జరుగుతుండగా
👉 ongoing action → Past Continuous
👉 completed action → Simple Past
Telugu Meaning Clarity
- What was he writing? → అతను ఏమి రాస్తున్నాడు?
- Where were they waiting? → వాళ్లు ఎక్కడ ఎదురు చూస్తున్నారు?
- Why was she laughing? → ఆమె ఎందుకు నవ్వుతోంది?
- When were you preparing? → నువ్వు ఎప్పుడు సిద్ధమవుతున్నావు?
Very Common Errors (Avoid These)
-
❌ WH + subject + was/were
✅ WH + was/were + subject -
❌ verb base / verb²
✅ verb-ing only
Practice – Correct the Sentences
- Why she was shouting?
- What they were eat?
- Where he was go?
- How you studying yesterday?
- When she was come?
(Answers will be explained in Day 5)
