TENSES

C. The Past Continuous Tense or The Past Perfect Continuous Tense
“The Past Continuous Tense” kesintiye uğramış eylemleri anlatırken “The Past Perfect Continuous Tense”
geçmişte gerçekleşmiş bir olay ya da eylemden önceki süreci anlatmak için kullanılır.
The children were playing in the park when a sudden blast of wind blew away their balloons.

D. Perfect Tenses or Perfect Continuous Tenses

“Ne kadar?” ve “Kaç tane?” sorularının cevabı bulunan cümlelerde “The Present Perfect Tense” ve “The Past
Perfect Tense” kullanılırken, “Ne kadar süredir?” sorusunun cevabı bulunan cümlelerde “The Present Perfect
Continuous Tense” ve “The Past Perfect Continuous Tense” tercih edilir. Bunun sebebi; ilkinde eylemin
sonucu vurgulanırken, diğerinde devam eden bir sürecin vurgulanmasıdır. Eylemsizlik bildiren fiiller bu kuralın
dışındadır.
