The past perfect progressive tense describes an activity that was ongoing up until another point in the past. It is formed using "had" plus the present participle of the verb (ending in "-ing"). This tense emphasizes the duration of an activity leading up to another past event or time. Examples given were "The police had been looking for the criminal for two years before they caught him" and "We had been waiting for Nancy for over three hours before she finally arrived yesterday."
The document discusses the past perfect and simple past tenses in English. It explains that the past perfect uses the auxiliary verb "had" and the past participle of the main verb to talk about an action that was completed before another past action. It also explains how to form the simple past and uses examples to illustrate the differences between using the simple past versus past perfect depending on whether the focus is on a single past event or relating two past events in temporal order.

The document discusses the use of the past continuous tense in English. It explains that the past continuous tense expresses an action that was ongoing or in progress at a specific time in the past.

The document describes the past continuous tense in English. It provides examples of how to use the past continuous to indicate: 1) an interrupted action in the past, 2) when a specific time interrupts an ongoing action, 3) parallel actions happening simultaneously, 4) setting an atmosphere or scene, and 5) repetition or irritation with the adverb "always". It also covers grammar rules regarding adverb placement, active vs. passive voice, and forms of the past continuous tense.
1) Inversion rearranges words in a sentence for emphasis, especially using negative adverbial expressions like "not only" and "no sooner than".
2) With negative expressions, the subject and auxiliary verb are inverted so the expression comes first, like "Not only is my brother lazy" instead of "Not only my brother is lazy".
3) For simple past and present tenses, "do/does/did" is used with the subject before the main verb, like "Not only did you forget to shut the window".
The future perfect continuous tense is used to describe an action that will be ongoing up until a particular time in the future. It is formed using will + have + been + present participle.

The future perfect continuous cannot be used in time clauses, which require the present perfect continuous instead. It also cannot be used with non-continuous verbs.
The document discusses various uses of future tenses in English including predictions, plans, arrangements, promises and instant decisions.
