Question

we were for the train​

Answer 1

We were waiting for the train.

Explanation:

• The correct noun here is "waiting".
• Waiting is a gerund noun and it fits appropriately here.
• A verb that ends with "ing" becomes a gerund noun.
• Generally speaking, gerunds are nouns that are formed from verbs but they act as nouns.
• Other examples of gerund are baking, cooking, walking, running, eating, blending, etc.
• For example, apologizing is a virtuous act.
