Past Continuous

We use the past continuous to talk about:

• an action that was in progress at a time in the past. The action started before that time and continued after that time: I was watching TV at six.
• two actions that were in progress at the same time in the past: I was talking to Luke while Kate was making dinner.

We use while with the two verbs. Notice when we use a comma (,):
I was talking to Luke while Kate was making dinner.
While Kate was making dinner, I was talking to Luke.

Affirmative:
I / She / He / It was playing.

Negative:
I / She / He / It wasn´t playing.

Question:
Was I / she / he / it playing?
Were you / we / they playing?
