4. The Simple Past Tense
The Simple Past Tense secara umum dapat Anda gunakan untuk kegiatan yang dilakukan di waktu lampau atau peristiwa yang selesai di waktu lalu dan tidak ada hubungan dengan waktu sekarang. Dalam tenses ini juga terdapat dua struktur kalimat seperti halnya The Simple Present Tense, pertama menggunakan linking verb atau verb be (kata kerja penghubung), yaitu was dan were. Kata kerja ini dapat berarti ada, berada, adalah, tapi padanannya tersebut sering kali tidak diterjemahkan ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia sama sekali. Bentuk negative (peniadaan) dibuat dengan menambahkan kata not setelah kata kerja tersebut: was not, dan were not. Sedangkan bentuk interrogative (pertanyaan) dibuat dengan menempatkan kata kerja sebelum subyek: was I….?, was he…..?, was she….?, was it….?, were you….?, were we…..?, were they……?, dan seterusnya.
Di dalam kalimat linking verb menghubungkan subyek dengan noun, adjective, adverb atau prepositionial phrase of place sebagai complement (pelengkap penderita, penyerta, pelaku). Perhatikan perbedaannya di bawah ini:
I was a student. (a student adalah jenis kata benda)
She was not stupid. (stupid adalah jenis kata sifat)
Were you still there? (there adalah jenis kata keterangan)
They were in the living room. (in the living room adalah frase kata kata depan menerangkan tempat)
Struktur kalimat lainnya menggunakan kata kerja utama kedua (Verb 2 atau Simple Past) yang memiliki arti masing-masing, seperti: ate (makan), went (pergi), played (bermain / memainkan), spoke (berbicara), dan sebagainya. Dalam kalimat positive setelah subyek I, you, we, they, he, she, dan it diikuti kata kerja kedua tersebut: I ate, you ate, we ate, they ate, Toni and Teni ate, the teachers ate, he ate, she ate, it ate, Jane ate, the rabbit ate, dan seterusnya.
Kata bantu did berlaku untuk semua subyek: I, you, we, they, he, she, dan it dalam kalimat negative atau interrogative. Namun, kata kerja kedua (Simple Past) berubah menjadi kata kerja kesatu (infinitive). Contracted forms (= bentuk-bentuk penyingkatan) did not adalah didn't. Di dalam kalimat tertulis seperti berikut: I didn't, you didn't, we didn't, they didn't, he didn't, she didn't, it didn't, did I ….?, did you ….?, did we ….?, did they ….?, did Dony and Kemal …..?, did Ita and her friends …..?, did he ….?, did she ….?, did it….?, did Devi …..?, did the crocodile ……?, dan seterusnya.
Dalam tenses ini seringkali digunakan kata keterangan waktu, seperti: last week/year/night/etc.* (= minggu/tahun/malam lalu/dan seterusnya), yesterday (= kemarin), two minutes/three days/four weeks/five years ago (= dua menit/tiga hari/empat minggu/lima tahun lalu), in 1987 (= pada tahun 1987), when I was a child (= ketika aku kecil), yang acapkali terdapat kalimat ini.
(+) S + linking verb (be: was / were) + O/Adv.
(-) S + linking verb (be: was / were) + not + O/Adv.
(?) Be (was / were) + S + O/Adv.
Pola Kalimat dengan main verbs (kata kerja utama):
(+) S + V2 + O/Adv.
(-) S + did + not + V1 + O/Adv.
(?) Did + S + V1 + O/Adv.
Penggunaan kata bantu (have / has) terhadap subyeknya dan contracted forms dapat Anda lihat penjelasannya pada The Present Perfect Tense.
