Past Tense can also be divided up into four different forms.. Past simple, past continuous, past perfect, and past perfect continuous. Past simple and past perfect both use -ed/d form in its ending. The past continuous and past perfect continuous use the verb+ing form. The past simple form is perhaps the most basic. Aside from some irregular verbs, it is used for immediate, completed actions in the past. The past continuous tense is used to describe a past event, used to express an interrupted action, show gradual development. For example- I was cooking when the door opened. This sentence is used to express a break or interruption of one event due to another. As stated previously it can also be used to show a regression of change over time, such as in the sentence the car was slowing down. The past perfect, as with differs from the past simple due to its use of the word \"had\". This tense is used to expresses actions that occurred before another action. In a sense, it is the past event of another event. For example, I had dropped the ball before I arrived at the tennis court. In this sentence, while there are two actions going on, one occurred before another (the dropped ball happened before arriving at the tennis court). Finally there is the past perfect continuous. This is an event that is continuous up until the point being described. As the name suggests, it is a continuous verb which happened before an event and is still happening up until the mentioned moment. For example look at the sentence- she had been running before her coach arrived. In this sentence, we know that her running began before the later event (the coach arriving) and should have continued or stop at his arrival. Regardless, up until that moment the event was uninterrupted (hence continuous).
