Hal ini karena Were digunakan untuk second person singular and plural (orang kedua tunggal dan jamak) – you, your, yours – juga first and third person plural (orang pertama dan ketiga jamak) – we, they. Dan kata THEY merupakan jamak atau juga disebut dengan plural sehingga memakai WERE.
Berikut ringkasannya:
Singular = I was, You were, He was, She was, It was
Plural = We were, You were, They were
Berikut contoh-contohnya:
I was watching TV when he called last night. (Saya sedang menonton TV waktu dia menelepon tadi malam.)
You were there when the robbery happened. (Kamu ada disana waktu perampokan itu terjadi.)
He was getting ready for work this morning. (Dia sedang bersiap-siap berangkat kerja tadi pagi.)
