Question

as the shops........,we could not buy anything use correct verb form​

Answer 1

As the shops were closed, we could not buy anything.

Explanation:

• Verbs are the words used to demonstrate the activity that is happening in the sentence.

• A verb that comes before the main verb in a sentence is called a helping verb.

• The verb that comes in the give sentence is "closed" and the helping verb that is used in the sentence is "are".

• In the present tense "is" and "are" are used to connect to the nouns in the sentence.

• "is" is used for singular nouns and "are" is used for plural nouns.

• Whereas, in the past tense, "was" and "were" are used instead of "is" and "are".
