PAST SIMPLE VS PAST CONTINUOUS

PAST SIMPLE

We use the past simple for an action which started and finished in the past, often with a time expression.

EG: I lived there for six months (= I no longer live there)


PAST CONTINUOUS

We use the past continuous for an action that was already happening at a particular time in the past.

EG: It was raining when we left the building
