• we're = we are (contracción del pronombre 'we' y el presente simple del verbo 'to be')

➤ PAST SIMPLE – VERBS ≠ 'TO BE'
➜ El auxiliar es DID cualquiera sea el sujeto. Se usa en las oraciones negativas e interrogativas.
➜ Verbos regulares: Para formar el pasado simple se añade la terminación '-ed'/'-d' a la forma base del verbo (= infinitivo).
➜ Verbos irregulares: No tienen un patrón fijo. ☹️ Hay que aprender el pasado de memoria, o buscar su forma en un diccionario o en alguna tabla de verbos (segunda columna).
Estas son todas las estructuras:
➜ Past simple – Affirmative:
• Sujeto + verbo en PAST SIMPLE + complementos
➜ Past simple – Negative:
• Sujeto + auxiliar DID + NOT + INFINITIVO + complementos
• Sujeto + contracción DIDN'T + INFINITIVO + complementos
➜ Past simple – Interrogative:
↳ Yes/No questions:
• Auxiliar DID + sujeto + INFINITIVO + complementos + ?
↳ Wh-questions:
• Wh-word + auxiliar DID + sujeto + INFINITIVO + complementos + ?
