Past simple 1: was/were

Formal title. He was a popular hero. It's past. Is it nothing now? Description around the photo ask me "Was he a real man?" ... They don't know too.

Omg. What is subject of this theme? If I don't know. They don't know.

But it's here! Why?

Three titles

Header include photo and three titles with description. It's about was/were only that is form of verb be in the past. But unit 2 was about past too. Wow.

Ok. I'm man. I was man. It's easy. But if I talk about Robin Hood I can't say "He is" or "He was", because I don't know. Yes, it's true.

Description say that possible R.H. was born before his popularity in 13th centry. But it isn't fact. More question here than answers. But mean is dialog about him.

Merry Man, it was woman or man or both ... Maybe group of people. It's secret around of R.H.. Oh, past form of verb be include secrets. They were two or one ... I don't know.

Hmm... robbing rich people is cause. But in the next descriptions that isn't true. Oh. They were famous. But difficult to catch a cause. Maybe book was cause that is real true I think. But book published in 1883 year. R.H. was famous int 13th century.

How to #1

Past form of verb be include two form. We lose am for pronoun I ...

  • I, he, she, it: was;
  • You, we, they: were;

No personal verb for the past. Maybe it isn't important, right:

  • I was young;
  • He was young;
  • She was young;
  • It was past;

Yes. It's past. No difference now.

How to #2

 
Negative and questions are here. Also, using by their target by name. Negative for denial. Question for get sentense in the past. What is interes that you in the group with we/they:
  • You were young;
  • We were young;
  • They were young;
You is common here. Because they is equal to use you many times. We is equal to say you many times where my person will absorb by group. This is provide for you to be common in this group.

Oh. Only one question now. What is defference between you and I, he, she, it? I can use you only in dialog. Where I'll say "I was young" or "You were young", forcus to show that we were different.

If I say about "He was young" in the dialog no differens with "I was young", because if I know so many about him I'm lose some about me. It's right for she/it too. Or it will be lie, because I don't know so many.

Model in the dialog

 

 
Model how I look for it. I think is no bad but may be better. May be more details needed. It's past. I made it for the be too.
 
It's wrong, task #2.
