Past Continuous Exercises For Vietnamese Grammar

Language learning simplified with easy-to-understand grammar exercises

The Past Continuous tense in Vietnamese grammar is used to express an action that was in progress at some point in the past. Unlike English, Vietnamese does not differentiate between past simple and past continuous tense. They just use past simple for both. Vietnamese uses โ€œฤ‘angโ€ to express the ongoing nature of the action, which could be translated as “was/were doing”.
