Past Perfect Simple
Das Past Perfect Simple wird verwendet, um zu zeigen, dass eine Handlung vor einer anderen Handlung in der Vergangenheit stattfand. Es hilft uns, eine klare Abfolge von Vergangenheitsereignissen zu etablieren.
Das Past Perfect Simple wird mit had + Partizip Perfekt gebildet. Die gleiche Form wird für alle Subjekte verwendet (I, you, he, she, it, we, they).
