En inglés, el pasado simple y el pasado continuo se utilizan para describir acciones en el pasado, pero cada uno tiene un uso específico:

Pasado Simple: Se usa para hablar de acciones que comenzaron y terminaron en el pasado. Por ejemplo, en la frase "She visited her friend yesterday", visited está en pasado simple porque la acción está completa.

Pasado Continuo: Se utiliza para hablar de acciones que estaban en progreso en un momento específico del pasado. Se forma con el verbo "to be" en pasado (was/were) + el verbo principal en su forma -ing. Por ejemplo, en la frase "She was reading when the phone rang", was reading está en pasado continuo porque la acción estaba en progreso cuando ocurrió otra acción.
