Was or Were, Is or Are? JC 2013

Some sentences: what do you know already. I was/were walking home from the newsagent. My friends and I are/is going to a party. We was/were going to go to the stationery shop but then it was/were raining so we didn’t go.

Was/Were or Is/Are Before you proceed further note: Was/Were is if you are talking about something that has happened. For this, we use the term “past tense”. We were playing football in the park. Is/Are is talking is if you are talking about something that is going to happen or something that will happen. For this we use the terms “future” and “present” tense. We are going to play football in the park. We are playing football in the park.

Was or Were? Were is plural- i.e. for more than one person: We were going to the park. Was is singular- i.e. if you are talking about only one person, like yourself. I was about to go to the park. He was about to go the park. She was about to go to the park. [name of person] was about to go to the park.

Is or Are? Are is plural- i.e. for more than one person or you. We are going to the park. You are going to the park. Is is singular- i.e. if you are talking about only one person, but not yourself (for that you use am). He is about to go the park. She is about to go to the park. [name of person] is about to go to the park.

Some sentences: Now, with your knowledge, are your answers any different? I was/were walking home from the newsagent. My friends and I are/is going to a party. We was/were going to go to the stationery shop but then it was/were raining so we didn’t go. You are/is going to the funfair. Is/Are you going to the cinema tomorrow?
