    The key takeaways are the differences between the past simple and past continuous tenses and examples of verbs that can only be used in the past simple tense.

    The past simple is used for completed actions while the past continuous emphasizes ongoing or progressive actions. The past simple uses regular and irregular verbs with endings like -ed while the past continuous uses was/were + verb+ing.

    Verbs related to states, senses, feelings, possession, and introductory clauses for direct speech are only used in the past simple tense.
