Explicación:
El past continious se refiere a usar el -ing al final de los verbos, cambiando el verbo to be al pasado.
Esto es:
Para los pronombres I, she, he, it, se utiliza el was/was not.
Y para los pronombres You, they, we, se utiliza el were/were not
Este verbo va seguido del verbo complemento que especifica la accion, al cual le debes agregar el -ing al final. Ejemplo: Dance = dancing, sing = singing, study = studying.
Cuando este verbo termine en e, como el caso de dance, se omite la e y se agrega el ing = dancing.
Los verbos en pasado negativo (was not, were not) pueden abreviarse asi:
was not = wasn't
were not = weren't
Espero te ayude. Suerte!
