WAS WERE KONU ANLATIMI 7.SINIF İNGİLİZCE
“to be” fiili olmak fiilidir. Bu fiil içinde bulunduğumuz zamanı anlatırken “am, is, are” olarak çekimlenir. Geçmiş zamanı anlatırken ise “was, were” olarak çekimlenir. Yani kısacası “was, were” yardımcı fiilleri, “am,is,are” fiillerinin geçmiş zamanda kullanılan halleridir. Bu nedenle “was, were” fiillerini geçmiş zamandaki isim cümlelerinde kullanırız ve bu fiilleri Türkçeye “-idi” olarak çeviririz.
