Formamos oraciones en pasado continuo usando el verb to be en pasado como auxiliar, y el gerundio como verbo principal.

Affirmative:

Sujeto + was / were + gerundio.

Negative:

Sujeto + was not / were not + gerundio.

Interrogative:

Was / were + sujeto + gerundio...?

Nota: el gerundio es el verbo con la terminación -ing.
