hi there it's grammar fun time with
Ronnie again hey
grammar today we're going to be learning
about how to use the simple past which
is regular edie verbs or irregular verbs
and the past perfect we're going to use
it to talk about our or your daily
routine so what you do every day okay
past perfect is had plus PP or the past
participle the past participle is the
third tense of the verb the easiest way
for me to explain this to you is the
earliest action or the first action that
you do in the morning for example you're
going to choose past perfect then the
next action you do after that you're
going to use simple past so first of all
earliest action pass perfect the second
action that you do is going to be simple
past I will help you out with some
examples so for example I sometimes wake
up at 8 o'clock usually when we speak
English when we talk about our daily
routine we use basic English we say I
wake up I eat breakfast but when you
want to talk about in the past you have
to use past perfect and simple past so 8
o'clock I wake up 8:15 I eat breakfast
so the earliest or the first action that
I do in the morning is I wake up and
then know
I eat breakfast I usually have oatmeal
for breakfast with yogurt what do you
eat for breakfast then after work maybe
about 5:15 I have a bath I like to be
clean and at 5:30 after my bath my 15
minute bath i watch TV so what we're
going to do to change this into simple
past and past perfect is my very first
action we're going to put into the past
perfect tense my second action I'm going
to use simple past so let's work this
out together
oh yeah I'm awake yeah let's do this the
very very first action that I did we're
gonna use past perfect so wake up does
anyone know the past participle of wake
it's very strange a lot of people get it
wrong it's actually woken now when we
use simple past and past perfect
together in a sentence
we usually have the word actor to help
us with the time period so we're going
to use the word after in both of our
sentences and we're gonna say after I
I'm gonna use my past perfect had wake
woken
up so this is my very first action that
I did the earliest action is I woke up
after I woke up I ate breakfast so the
simple past of eat is eight like the
number so after I had woken up I ate
breakfast so if you look at this
sentence I have after and then I have my
past perfect and then I have my
breakfast so the very first thing that I
did was I woke up and then I ate
breakfast which makes sense because you
can't eat breakfast while you're
sleeping can you maybe in your dreams
let's have a look at the other one the
other example so at 5:15 I have a bath
and at 5:30 I watched TV the very very
first of the earliest action that I did
was I had a bath so the first action
again I need to put into past perfect
the second action I did was I watched TV
so let's do the sentence together
okay so again we're going to use after
to begin the sentence so I'm going to
say after I
I need my subject and I'm gonna use past
perfect had now what is the past perfect
what's the past participle of have oh
it's had but you have to say had had yes
I know it's really really strange like
most English but you actually have to
say after I had had a bath
it's the exact same as this sentence
after I had woken up then we need the
subject we have to put in I
I forgot the I I ate breakfast so again
we need this subject after the comma so
I the simple past tense of watch is
washed it is a sound at the end but we
spell it with an IDI so after I had had
a bath I don't forget your subject like
I did watched TV TV so automatically
when we look at these sentences we know
that the very very first thing that I
did was I woke up because I'm using the
past perfect then we know that I eat
breakfast if you look at this sentence
after work I know I had a bath first
because I'm using the past perfect and
then I know I watched TV after the bath
because I'm using simple past so what do
you do when you come home from work or
come home from school try and write a
sentence using simple past and past
perfect that's all for now folks bye-bye
you
