when two pass actions happen at the same time we do need to use past perfect tense.... Can anybody help me how to identify if the actions are happening simultaneous or not?

[@amatullahhamid9239]

But if we are using "Before" in the sentence than it is clear no that what happened first.. why we are using both "had" and "before" in same sentence?

[@piotrdygas5345]

Cause she doesn't know what she's talking about

[@EnglishwithVennila]

@amatullahhamid9239 Yes. The simple past is correct here because of the conjunction 'before'. If the conjunction is 'when', the past perfect is correct if he died before the ambulance arrived. He had died when the ambulance arrived. If we use the simple past with 'when', it means he died at the same time the ambulance arrived. He died when the ambulance arrived. It still makes sense and is not incorrect.

[@liezelsugano1662]

so bad

[@BenjaminDavid06]

This sounds wrong, you wouldn’t ever say “the ambulance reached” you would say “the ambulance arrived” and as a native English speaker I can safely say that we drop “had” all the time. “He died before the ambulance arrived” makes perfect sense and sounds right

[@Amsidkdnsls]

😂😂😂 right 😂😂

[@Amsidkdnsls]

I've never heard anyone in my life say a vehicle reached , its alawys either arrive or some other verb.

[@sensei.h.aep1]

Who asked tho

[@ue..]

thank you so much, I learned a lot 🤍

[@ArthurMorganW]

So it's the right sentence, but it sounds wrong?

[@brookeworm18]

GREAT EXPLANATION! One thing: the verb “reach” has to have a direct object after it. So the sentence needs an object at the end, like “him”, “it”, “the house”, anything! It SEVERELY hinders native speakers’ understanding if it doesn’t.

[@drunkshinx]

yes, you could also replace "reached" with "arrived"

[@Justinmendes-t8z]

​@shinx I was thinking the same

[@tadios3086]

so what can it be without an object?

[@brookeworm18]

@@tadios3086 you could say “arrived”. Or another verb that doesn’t need an object. But it can’t be “reached”.

"before" can do the work without "had"

[@TheMayayogi]

Exactly

[@EnglishwithVennila]

Yes!

[@FerozKhan-ss9nn]

Great explanation of the past perfect and the simple past-the former perfect Action (taking the perfect past tense helping verb) and the Event happening later (taking the simple past tense verb) Yes, it is wonderful to understand.

[@jasper5016]

Both "He died" and "He had died" are grammatically correct, but the choice depends on the specific context. If you are specific about "ambulance's arrival" then had is correct.

[@samadtimeacademy]

Though it's grammatical rule, I think the use of had means the killing of time.

[@Yelda-t1m]

The sentence was correct

[@AANYASINGH-e5q]

You look like Billie eilish And you explained it very well

[@TheMayayogi]

Its not wrong. Whn the action is clear, which one took place frst nd which one followed.

[@ashishbansiwal941]

You don't need past perfect tense when there is a word like 'before', that indicates, what happened first so we use past simple over past perfect. I also didn't know about it but I saw a British teacher Aga's video on past perfect tense.

[@EnglishwithVennila]

That's right.

[@doyelathavandoyelathavan]

Thank you whole heartedly

[@jayalakshmiramesh7673]

[@yaskoface3213]

Perfect example,thank you so much❤❤❤

[@raselsheik7082]

The sentence " he died before the ambulance reached" is absolutely right because the word "before '" shows the action that happened earlier. Thanks.

[@buddaramu2613]

Way of teaching is very clear

[@UpulKumara-ox4iw]

Both are correct

[@MohammedAhmed-pb5xs]

Your smile lights up my day , Thank you very much my beautiful teacher 💞❤️🥰

[@ladyliberty407]

Not exactly. "Before" already says which action happened first so the sequence of actions is pretty clear, which is all the point of using the past perfect (to clarify which action in the past happened first).

[@naileshpoojary321]

Thank you so much. You explained it so well❤❤❤❤😊

[@MG-2023-]

If the sentences are uttered sequencially, i.e. in the order they occurred, they can all be in the simple past. If the events aren't narrated in order, that's when you use the past perfect to show what happened first.

[@EnglishwithVennila]

Exactly!

[@Learner-hg4hj]

Awesome as always, madam ! You are the pedagogue of pedagogues !!

[@stelfran1546]

The sentence is grammatically correct, but you could improve clarity by slightly rephrasing it. Here's a more polished version: "He died before the ambulance arrived." This version uses "arrived" instead of "reached," which sounds more natural when talking about an ambulance reaching a location The word "before" tells you which happened first.

[@EnglishwithVennila]

Yes!

[@Ranjithkumar-ey2fc]

Well, both the sentences are correct. Please refer to Raymond Murphy's book.

[@EnglishwithVennila]

Yes! 👍

[@sumitsarode753]

Best explanation mam

[@stairwayscare5205]

This might be grammatically correct, but it sounds off to native english speakers because we would never use the word reached in this context. We would more commonly say "he died before the ambulance arrived."

[@keurnyamar]

Simple example to learn grammer..thamp up 👍

[@chathupiumali]

Thank you...

[@ejazgilani4983]

tremendous 🎉

[@lud5486]

Even though the second sentence is correct, the first one is not wrong imo. Just because you can say something in an other way doesn't mean the first way it is said is wrong For instance : you can say "my father did it before he disapeared" both verbs are conjugated in the simple past but the sentence is not grammaticaly wrong. Same for "he died before the ambulance reched"

With WHEN....pefect tense should be invariably used to indicate earlier action/happening when thr are two past actin one following the other

[@EnglishwithVennila]

Yes. He 'had died' 'when' the ambulance arrived.

[@lalalulalala..lalalulalala6577]

[@hannahwilliamson5902]

I'm a native English speaker and the biggest error in this sentence is actually not adding the word 'him' after ' reached' 'He died before the ambulance reached him' would be much better. If you are not adding 'him', then you would be better to use the word 'arrived' instead - 'he died before the ambulance arrived'. Even English speakers would not add in 'had' because we're lazy and it sounds fine without it and carries the same meaning. There's nothing wrong with saying 'he had died' though, yes this is technically correct. In this case we would most likely use a contraction so that 'he had died' becomes he'd died. Anyway, my point is that no one needs to loose sleep over this, the meaning is exactly the same and there would be no confusion with this statement.

[@EnglishwithVennila]

Yes! By the way, it's 'lose' sleep. Must be a typo, I guess!
