Past perfect progressive Exercises For Latvian Grammar


Exercise 1: Complete the following sentences with the correct form of the verbs


In the Latvian language, the Past Perfect Progressive or Past Perfect Continuous tense does not exist in the same structure as it does in English. Therefore, a combination of the Past Tense and adverbs or context is used to imply the continued action in the past. An action having been ongoing, sometimes up until some point in the past, can be conveyed in Latvian by using the simple past tense of the verb, sometimes with the addition of adverbs like “ilgi” (for a long time) or “jau” (already).
