Past Continuous — il passato progressivo

Dialogo in inglese con traduzione in italiano

narrator: Yesterday Musa was driving home from work.Ieri Musa stava tornando a casa dal lavoro in auto.

musa: I was listening to loud music and singing along.Ascoltavo la musica a tutto volume e cantavo.

narrator: While he was singing, he didn't see the speed sign.Mentre cantava, non ha visto il cartello del limite di velocità.

musa: Flash! Oh no, was that a speed camera?Flash! Oh no, era un autovelox?

storesoster: Dad, what were you doing when it happened?Papà, cosa stavi facendo quando è successo?

musa: I was driving at sixty in a fifty zone.Andavo a sessanta in una zona da cinquanta.

lillesoster: You were driving too fast again!Andavi di nuovo troppo veloce!

musa: I know. I was thinking about my new tyres.Lo so. Pensavo alle gomme nuove.

alina: I saw you this morning. You were driving very slowly!Ti ho visto stamattina. Andavi pianissimo!

musa: Yes! I was watching every sign on the road.Sì! Guardavo ogni cartello sulla strada.

musa: From now on, the music is quieter and the car is slower.D'ora in poi la musica è più bassa e l'auto più lenta.

storesoster: We will remind you, Dad!Te lo ricorderemo noi, papà!
