YES/NO QUESTIONS IN THE SIMPLE PAST

 

Asking Questions in the Simple Past Tense

Have you ever asked someone, “What did you do yesterday?” or “Did you watch that movie?”
These are questions in the simple past! We use them to ask about things that already happened — usually yesterday, last week, or at another time in the past. Before jumping into this lesson, review our guide on asking Yes/No questions in the simple present.

 Remember! We use did to form most questions in the simple past.

 

Yes/No Questions in the Simple Past

Did + subject + base form of the verb + other information?

Examples:

Did I pass the grammar test?

Did you watch TV last night?

Did he score a goal yesterday?

Did she call you yesterday?

Did it rain last week?

Did they go to the concert?

Did we have any homework in class this morning?

Did Regina take piano lessons when she was a child?

Did Diego and Frida paint together?

Notice that after did, the main verb returns to its base form (no -ed!).

 

Be Verb Questions in the Past (was / were)

With questions in the past with a Be verb, you do not use did. Instead, you use was or were.

Yes/No Questions in the Simple Past

• We use was with the following subjects:

                    I, He, She, It, and Singular Nouns.

Examples:

Was I your favorite teacher?

Was he your boyfriend in high school?

Was she tired after class?

Was it hot last weekend?

Was Maria in your grammar class?

 

• We use were with the following subjects:

                    You, They, We, and Plural Subjects

Examples:

Were you at school yesterday?

Were they in Mexico last weekend?

Were we loud last night?

Were your keys in your coat?
