 PASTSIMPLE vs PAST CONTINUOUS

TIME CLAUSES: When - while - as - as soon as

*When = cuando

*While = mientras (que)

*As = mientras (que)

*As soon as = Tan pronto como 

We use the Past Progressive and the Past Simple in the same sentence when one action interrupted another in the past. We use the Past Progressive for the longer action, and the Past Simple for the shorter action. In this case we usually use while, when or as. For example:

• As/While I was driving, I saw a cat in the street.

      {As/While I was driving}, {I saw a cat in the street}

       ↓                                   ↓

         longer action                   shorter action

• I was sleeping when the telephone rang. 

      {I was sleeping} when {the telephone rang}

  ↓                                ↓

  longer action             shorter action

Note:  We use as soon as with the Past Simple.

As soon as they left, we started cleaning up the house.
