I Just Went Pee and I Have to Go Again

Past perfect (I had washed) Прошедшее совершенное

A

Изучите следующую ситуацию:

Sarah went to a political party concluding calendar week. Paul went to the party too, but they didn't see each other. Paul left the party at 10.30 and Sarah arrived at 11 o'clock. Пол покинул вечеринку в ten:30, а Сара прибыла в 11 часов. Итак:

When Sarah arrived at the political party, Paul wasn't in that location.
Когда Сара прибыла на вечеринку, Пола там не было.

He had gone home. Он ушел домой.

Had gone это the by perfect (simple):

I/we/they/you he/she/it

had

(= I'd etc.) (= he'd etc.)

gone seen finished etc.

The past perfect simple это had + past participle - причастие прошедшего времени (gone/seen/finished etc).

Иногда мы говорим о событиях, случившихся в прошлом:

• Sarah arrived at the party.

Это начальная точка отсчета нашей истории. Затем, если мы хотим поговорить о событиях, случившихся до этого времени, мы используем by perfect (had ...):

• When Sarah arrived at the political party, Paul had already gone domicile.
  Когда Сара прибыла на вечеринку, Пол уже ушел домой.

Еще немного примеров:

• When we got home last dark, we found that somebody had broken into the flat.
  Когда мы вернулись домой прошлой ночью, мы обнаружили, что кто-то побывал в квартире.
• Karen didn't desire to go to the cinema with us because she'd already seen the film.
  Карен не хотела ехать в кино с нами, потому что она уже видела этот фильм.
• At beginning I thought I'd done the right thing, but I soon realised that I'd fabricated a big mistake.
  Сначала я думал, что сделал правильную вещь, но вскоре понял, что сделал большую ошибку.
• The man sitting adjacent to me on the airplane was very nervous. He hadn't flown before. or ... He had never flown before.
  Человек, который сидел рядом со мной в самолете, очень нервничал. Он (никогда) раньше не летал.

B

Сравните the nowadays perfect (have seen etc.) и the past perfect (had seen etc.):

• Who is that woman? I've never seen her before.
  Кто эта женщина? Я никогда ее не видела.
• We aren't hungry. We've merely had lunch.
  Мы не голодные. Мы только что пообедали.
• The house is dirty. They haven't cleaned it for weeks.
  Дом грязный. Они не убирали его неделями.

Сравните the past simple (left, was etc.) и the past perfect (had left, had been etc.):
