SIMPLE PAST

FUNZIONI DEL "SIMPLE PAST"

Il simple past si usa per parlare di azioni concluse che si sono svolte nel passato. La durata dell'azione è irrilevante. L'azione può essersi svolta in un passato prossimo o remoto.

ESEMPI

John Cabot sailed to America in 1498.
My father died last year.
He lived in Fiji in 1976.
We crossed the Channel yesterday.

Il simple past si utilizza sempre per indicare in che momento si è verificato un avvenimento; pertanto, questo tempo è sempre associato a un determinato tipo di espressioni temporali

frequenza: often, sometimes, always
I sometimes walked home at lunchtime.
I often brought my lunch to school.
un momento preciso: last week, when I was a child, yesterday, six weeks ago
We saw a good film last week.
Yesterday, I arrived in Geneva.
She finished her work atseven o'clock
I went to the theatre last night
un momento non preciso: the other day, ages ago, a long time ago People lived in caves a long time ago.
She played the piano when she was a child.

Nota: la parola ago è un termine utile per esprimere la distanza nel passato. Si colloca dopo il periodo di tempo: a week ago, three years ago, a minute ago.

Attenzione: Il simple past in inglese può sembrare simile al passato remoto in italiano, ma non sempre il significato è lo stesso.
