Past Perfect Simple
Go to Practice ExercisesIl Past Perfect Simple viene utilizzato per mostrare che un'azione è accaduta prima di un'altra azione nel passato. Aiuta a stabilire una chiara sequenza di eventi passati.
Formiamo il Past Perfect Simple con had + participio passato. La stessa forma è usata per tutti i soggetti (I, you, he, she, it, we, they).
Formazione

Forma il Past Perfect Simple con had + participio passato. Le contrazioni ('d) sono comuni nell'inglese parlato.
| Forma Estesa | Forma Contratta |

| We had seen that film before | We'd seen that film before |

Forma Negativa
Aggiungi 'not' dopo 'had' per formare i negativi. La contrazione 'hadn't' è comunemente usata.
