☼ EVER WONDER HOW TO SAY YOU WERE DOING SOMETHING OR HAD DONE SOMETHING IN LEVANTINE ARABIC? IN THIS LESSON – MY 3RD LESSON ON USING THE WORD KAN IN THE PAST – I GO OVER ALL THESE THINGS, TOGETHER WITH LOTS OF EXAMPLES!

☼ IN ARABIC WE USE THE VERB KAN, “TO BE,” TO FORM THESE SENTENCES. WE DON’T GENERALLY USE THE VERB ‘TO BE’ IN THE PRESENT, BUT WE DO NEED IT TO EXPRESS THE PAST.

☼ HERE’S WHAT WE GO OVER TOGETHER IN THIS LESSON:

☼ FORMING AND USING THE PAST CONTINUOUS (‘I WAS GOING’).

☼ FORMING AND USING THE PAST PERFECT (‘I HAD GONE’).

☼ LOTS OF REAL-LIFE EXAMPLES TO HELP YOU USE THESE TENSES.

☼ THIS LESSON CONNECTS TO OUR LAST TWO VIDEOS ABOUT “KAN”.
